Selection - You want your promotional product selections to meet the needs of your business and the promotion that you are using them for. This means you should really choose a company that offers many different color choices as well as an extensive promotional product line to ensure that you can keep buying from them for years to come.
Delivery - You want a company that guarantees their delivery times and also one that uses tracking. Some companies will charge a little extra for these methods of delivery, but when you are waiting on a shipment you will feel better knowing when it will arrive and that it will get to you in a timely manner. Customer Service - Choosing a company is like choosing a business partner, so you want to make sure that there are live representatives that you can speak with by phone to ask any questions and sort through any issues you may have. A professional promotional products company can really make a difference and can help you select the best items and design them for your business.

You'll need to look at several companies to be able to determine what the best price is but don't just go with the lowest price. You want to do a good examination because the lowest price may also mean cheap products and that will make your company look bad.
