It's simple, promotional gifts help increase charitable donations. They have a proven track record and have been used for many years by charities worldwide. All you need to do is turn on your television and chances are you will come across an advertisement or telethon using promotional items to help inspire people to donate. Following are some of the most common ways of doing this. Offer Different Gifts for Different Donation Amounts: If you have ever watched a telethon, you have probably noticed that they offer different gifts depending on the size of your donation. You may receive a free Parker Pen when you donate 10.00 or a jacket embroidered with the charities logo when you donate 50.00. Such gifts do not only inspire people to pick up the phone and donate, they go a long way toward getting them to donate more. People love free gifts and they are much more likely to donate if they receive a gift in return branded with the charities logo so that they can show by using the gift that they support the charity. Offer a Gift For Membership: This is very similar to the above mentioned scenario but it is done much more often. Have you ever seen the commercials on TV asking people to agree to paying a certain small amount every month toward their cause? This helps ensure a steady flow of donations monthly. Often, these charities will offer a gift in return. I recently saw an animal welfare commercial asking for small monthly donations to save abandoned dogs, for example. Donators were told they would receive a picture of a dog they helped save and a cuddly toy dog embroidered with the charity's logo. Promotional Gifts at Events: Charity marathons are an excellent example of how printed products can carry your message. By offering the runners free t-shirts, sports bottles and other items that they take with them on their run, they are spreading the word all along the way. What's more, they continue to promote your charity and inspire people to donate when the run is over and they just want to wear or use their promotional memorabilia from time to time. Many people ask how charities can afford to give away such gifts. The answer is that these gifts bring in a lot more money than they cost. By purchasing your promotional gifts in bulk, the unit price is much lower than you would find the same product selling for at your local shopping center.About the Author:
