Promotional Product Ideas for Your Business

Last week we were in Orlando for the ASI Show, the ad specialty's #1 meeting place, learning about all of the latest and greatest promotional products on the market for 2014. One of the fun things about our work at Minuteman Press Boca Raton is that we are always learning and staying up-to-date with the newest trends and promotional items. We do this so that you don't have to; you can trust us to do this for you.

There were hundreds of vendors showing off promotional products.  There was every color imaginable for USB drives, tote bags, glass ware , electronic gadgets, pens, bottles of water, shirts, hats, etc.   Every one of our clients could benefit from what we saw there.  Whether it be you and your staff wearing shirts with your logo, or having an item to hand out to prospective clients, and gifts for your current clients.  We have vendor guides to help you choose what is best for your business.

We have brought back so many new ideas to support your marketing campaigns, and we can't wait to talk to you about which ones fit your business goals for the New Year. Call us today to check out some of the cool new promotional items from the conference that are now available to you.

One of the highlights of the event was having the opportunity to see two of the sharks from ABC's hit show Shark Tank. That's right, we watched Barbara Corcoran and Kevin O'Leary give there feedback to four of our fellow entrepreneurs as they pitched their new products.  It was extremely exciting and they were just as straight forward and brutal as they are during the actual show.  

We are still pumped about such an awesome event and can't wait to help you so give us a call at (561) 325-8052 today to discuss your business goals and promotional item needs for 2014!

Time Management in 2014: Get More Done

There is never enough time in a day. This stands true for all of us trying to balance work, life, and the growing list of personal commitments that fill our to-do lists. One of the most common New Year's resolutions is to simply "get more done;" however, this isn't so simple. For time management - and balance - in 2014, here's a really simple tip that will help you prioritize all of your commitments.

Instead of keeping separate to-do lists - one at work, the other at home - create one list.  Combine everything that you need to get done in both places and rank your master list in order of priority. Work, family, friends, personal time: it's all your time that can't necessarily be compartmentalized.  You'll be less frazzled and more productive chipping away at your master priority list, one at a time.

Minuteman Press Boca Raton wishes you a wonderful and prosperous New Year! Get ready for 2014 by calling us at 561-392-8626 to discuss your business goals today.
