Conclusion
In summary, a useful item can continue to work for you years after it is given away, and have a lasting impression on your attendees. Even so, choosing the best swag will come down to your budget, goals and objectives for the event, and your company’s branding image. If you run a beach vacation company, it’s better to give out promotional items related to your company, such as beach balls, bags, towels, or frisbees, rather than items that have no relation to your business.
