Big Gdock

Wednesday, September 21st, 2011

Big GdockWe are always pleased when a new innovation comes along in the promotional merchandise world and we feel the Big Gdock is just that. For some time we have championed the original Gdock as a fantastic “desktop billboard” to hold, dock and charge any mobile device. Enter “stage right” the big brother of the family, the Big Gdock, which has been specifically designed for Tablets (such as the iPad) and eReaders.

The Big Gdock has all the benefits of the original Gdock including access for cables and chargers. It will comfortably hold any tablet in landscape orientation with a reinforced base. It will keep the device handy, away from areas where accidental damage could occur and at an optimum viewing angle. It is portable, folds down flat and is perfect for home or office use (or both).

See below for a video review of the Big Gdock by a client :

With the huge amount of expensive iPad and tablet accessories on the market, the Big Gdock provides a low cost alternative that can be combined with powerful branding on a large printable area (210 x 220mm). The possibilities of communication are endless and brands can combine all elements of their latest campaign or message push on this unique “desktop billboard”.

As mentioned the Big Gdock is presented flat packed for self-assembly and this opens up a large number of potential uses. This is an ideal direct message piece, but could equally be used as an event giveaway or “gift with purchase” idea. It ticks the boxes for most product marketing and promotion.

The Eco message is also very strong with the Big Gdock. It is made from recyclable board and is also fully recyclable. It is light (155g) and the folded dimensions are 210 x 280 x 5mm, making it easy to post.

Brands are constantly on the lookout for products that are seen to keep up with the needs of modern technology. The Big Gdock not only does this incredibly effectively, but it is such a cost effective solution.

Promotional Coasters

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

The desktop is a great place to position a product that reminds people of your product, service, contact details and promotional coasters are an inexpensive and effective way to do this. A coaster can be something that is well received and will be used in some capacity within the office environment that you are intending it to be used. You can also be fairly confident that your promotional coaster will be viewed by a good number of people on a regular basis, meaning that it will not only the intended recipient that will remember your details, even subconsciously.

There are several key benefits of using promotional coasters in your marketing campaigns. The first and most obvious is the low cost element. Promotional coasters do vary in price, but most are down towards the lower end of the price spectrum for promotional items, typically in the £0.30 to £0.50 area for the budget items. It is possible to spend more and this is dependant on the materials the promotional coasters are produced in. Aluminium and glass are higher in price.  The second great benefit of using promotional coasters is the fact that they have a large branding position and this can be used to provide a good size logo, contact details and a decent amount of company information. Some promotional coasters are also double sided, which allows you to be very creative with your design.

There are many different ways that promotional coasters are used in campaigns. Should you have a large number of desks and want to smarten up the office environment, coasters could be considered as a starting point. Direct mail campaigns are another perfect use for promotional coasters as they are light, cost effective and easy to pack into small envelopes, therefore having little effect on postage. With regard to events and exhibitions, it is quite often the case that bulky items are crossed off the list in favour of items that are easier to transport, and promotional coasters would certainly fit the bill.

It is a common myth to presume that promotional coasters are produced as either square or round, giving off the impression that there is nothing standout in this range of promotional items. This is not the case, and you can always look to have liquid filled promotional coasters, special shaped products, 2 dimensional PVC options that give a raised up feel and texture to your coaster. Really it is a very diverse set of promotional products, and should you be considering using promotional coasters in your next campaign, speak to a member of the sales team about ideas, prices, visuals and samples. We will be sure to find a promotional coaster to suit your needs.
