Promotional Custom USB Flash Drive

Event planners and marketing departments pay out a lot of money on promotional products and corporate gifts used for trade shows, seminars, conferences, product launches and other special events and meetings. One of the most effective gifts that they can purchase is a custom USB Flash Drive.

Companies get the best buy for their dollar by investing in a custom USB Flash Drive. When you consider the impact that it makes on your customers and potential clients, it literally pays for itself.


USB Flash Drives have come way down in price yet are still considered a high end gift.

If you price one with a good USB company who specializes in custom drives, you will be amazed at how little they cost. They are one of the best products that you can buy to advertise your business. It’s called word-of-mouth advertising and it is the single most effective method of advertising.

Going to a trade show is one thing but getting them into your booth is another. A custom USB Flash Drive is the easiest and quickest method to get traffic to your booth.  People remember free gifts and your name will always surface when it comes time for them to purchase products or services. A custom USB Flash Drive will help set you apart from the competition. It’s the one thing that will get your foot in the door.

People think that custom drives are expensive but they are not. The only additional expense to that of purchasing a USB Flash Drive is the cost to open a custom mold. Once the mold is open, it’s yours and you can reorder any time for the same price as most USB Flash Drives.

A good USB company who specializes in custom USB Flash Drives will assign a team to work with you from start to finish. The process is so simple.



The sales person and graphic artist will help you achieve the design that best promotes your company and brand. Once you have decided on the final design, operations works with the factory to open the mold and create your vision.

In just a few days, you’ll have a photo or if you want a physical sample that will take a week. Once you have approved or made tweaks to the design, the factory will create your custom USB Flash Drives and it they will be delivered to you a few weeks later.


Generally speaking, the process takes three weeks but some companies will do rush orders.
The positive feelings that customized USB Flash Drives generate about your business lead not only to sales but also to closer relationships with your customers.

And that’s what it’s all about…the customer. http://www.usbpromos.com/
