How do you look professional and attentive to your clients, staff, and guy who fixes the copier without breaking the bank?  This is the first of a four part series dedicated to gifts under $5 dollars.  Plan now for your gifts to come in on time. If you are running behind, or want to plan for a new budget year (2009), order as a “Happy New Year” gift.  Contact us with any questions.

#1. Not your typical music download card.

This is an Eco-Friendly seeded recycled music download card. Yes, we said “seeded.” How cool is THAT? go green with recycled gift card like prepaid song music downloads card. We like this because:

1. It’s incredibly cool.This is a download card that can be PLANTED!

2. It’s small, so could be inserted in a Holiday Card or given out at conferences and events.

3. You can choose from over 3 million songs, including major labels.

4. You can track user data through custom web pages available to survey or build lead databases

#2. Fold Up Canvas Tote Bag

We like this because:

(1) Canvas tote bags are already popular item (see previous post on going green)

(2) It rolls up small enough to put in a bag, purse, etc and button closes so you don’t have to worry about it unraveling.

#3 Car Cigarette Lighter Socket Adapter (okay – this is a little over $5.00)

We like this because:

1) We like any product representing the convergence of technology/trends and practicality. People driving cars without built-in GPS systems and iPod ports often complain they have to pick one or the other when driving.

2) It’s a popular product that someone would actually use, and see your logo on it. Popular products promise residual use.

Stay tuned for our next post, and remember to follow us on Twitter @OnSalePromos and sign up for our Top 20 Deals email (see right column at this link). These are the lists from which we draw our monthly giveaways and a year-end shopping spree to our “OSP’s Favorite Things” store (coming soon!)

If not directly from someone in your life, you certainly have by the media. Curious that only ten years ago the media wanted to have nothing to do with the projects and people being “Eco-friendly,” unless it was some left-wing liberal uber-hippy newsletter. Yet today, there isn’t an issue of Newsweek, the Economist, any major newspaper, or even commercials on television that aren’t showcasing the benefits of living a “greener” lifestyle. In a previous blog post I ranted a bit about the contradicting motivation for people going green – just doing it for the dollar and not embracing it fully won’t get the planet where it needs to be. If a company has been “going green” – ask them if they know the definition of “sustainability” and see what comes back. If you yourself don’t know – stay tuned because there’s going to be a “Filling in the Green blanks” article coming up soon.

Regardless – our industry of promotional products IS making headway. More and more new products are at least being made with the environment in mind at least a little bit. Question the motives or not, the fact remains that more promotional product suppliers are realizing that people WANT to be Green whether they fully understand what that means or not.

Here at OSP we pride ourselves for being as Eco-Friendly as possible, and not just in the office with how we operate our business, but in trying to sell sustainable products that will leave the smallest mark on the planet while the biggest mark on your client. Some of the newer products to come across are desk include:

Seeded download cards – They are music download cards that after use, you can plant, they biodegrade and grow into wild flowers… AWESOME!

Plantable Ad-Ornaments – Paper products (coasters, invitations, wine bags, etc) – infused with seeds.  Same idea and then BAM – you’ve got flowers.

Envirofolder – Folders for the office that are made of 100% post-consumer recycled chipboard

Recycled Cardboard Journal – Journals with a cover made from 100% recycled cardboard with 100 sheets of unlined recycled paper – with an embossed logo on front.

We are also extremely impressed by what EGM Green has managed to do in expanding the reach of the Green community. They have managed to revolutionize the gambling industry creating Eco-Friendly gambling tables and furniture! They currently have blackjack, roulette, poker and even craps tables and are working on Baccarat and chairs and lounge furniture to transform the industry.

Stay tuned for more and feel free to contact us at info@onsalepromos.com with any questions you may have on our green line… It’s some pretty awesome stuff!
