I was searching through my parent’s junk drawer this weekend, attempting to find a hair band (success!) when it occurred to me that my parents have a LOT of promotional products in this drawer. I thought it might be fun to start a little game I’ll call: Junk Drawer Search & Find.
I imagine that many people have a junk drawer full of promotional products. Pens, pencils, chip clips – all sorts of stuff. I know some people refer to our industry as “Trinkets & Trash”, and of course, we call it a “junk” drawer – but the fact of the matter is: we keep it! (My parents fully admitted that they have not actually purchased a pen in years.)
See how many promotional products you can find in my parents’ junk drawer. (Sorry about the quality of the photo. I took it on my mom’s iPhone in the heat of the moment.) Then read the rest of the entry for the answers!
Answer Key
1-3: Promo Novice – Time to brush up on your skills. Keep an eye out for the next Promote 101 session!
4-7: Promo Pupil – You might be new to the promo world, but you’re gaining knowledge every step of the way.
7-10: Promo Spotter – You’ve ordered products because you recognize their value, but might be nervous about stepping outside the box just yet.
10-13: Promo Master – You probably use promotional products on a daily basis, for personal use, and to market your business in creative and fun ways.
14+: Promo Pro! – Are you sure you’re not a spy?
