Hi Everyone
I am looking for pretty badge organizers like this - has anyone ever used this company?
And does anyone have recommendations for pretty badge organizers
We are looking for a new agency to help us print, store and ship our promotional items and trade show supplies. Must haves are:
• US based
• Transparent pricing
• Super responsive - via email, texting, willing to hop on calls if needed
• Able to support multiple divisions within the same company and manage invoicing those divisions separately
• Easy to use inventory management platform
• Able to source creative, unique items (so I'm not spending my evenings doing their job for them 🫠 )
Would prefer to hear from others with recommendations rather than being pitched directly.
Hi all - I'm looking for a vendor that can handle the swag and printing needs for my entire organization. A vendor that handles fulfillment and is familiar with automizing as much of the process would be nice. But mostly looking for vendors that come highly recommended.
Please feel free to share with me. Thanks, and have a great weekend!
Hi Team - Can anyone recommend a good swag provider for the UK? I need to order some upscale swag for my London office. Thank you!
Anyone planning a SKO and select great swag for their team? Budget is TBD but we have a pretty high bar for swag — Vuori joggers, Fellow mugs, Veja sneaks...
Hello!! I am looking for a US swag vendor that is FANTASTIC at logistics/shipping. We sadly have had quite a few hiccups with our current vendor on the shipping and fulfillment side so wanted to see if anyone has a vendor they recommend. Asks are that they can hold all inventory and that they have the functionality of a 'store' for us to place orders from. Thanks!
Hey everyone - I'm sharing this here because I see a lot of asks around swag. I had dinner with several entrepreneurs last week and one of the founders has a premium sticker company that sells stickers at The Whitney, MOMA, etc. I asked if he does swag / brand collabs and they do. Sharing their deck here if you could find helpful. Maybe this is because I have kids, but I loved the idea of premium stickers as a giveaway item (has anyone else done that??) for laptops, giving to your kids after going to a biz event, etc. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1eud8FkLrzpLED03VX5y4-92jThK2cm5W2k3elg7eKfQ/edit?usp=sharing -- his email is [email hidden] if you ever want to reach out
My team is looking for color changing cups for an event in late May. We don’t want stadium cups or regular tumblers. We were hoping for for something a little nicer/unique (maybe something like this TikTok. Any recommendations? Thanks!
I’m looking for custom wrapping paper, but just a solid color. I’ve found lots of websites that allow me to upload an image for a custom print but none that let me choose a solid PMS color for a couple rolls. Any advice?
Also, related, I’m looking for nice customized satin ribbons (using my company logo). I know I can get this on a site like Zazzle but if anyone here has had a good personal experience I’d love recommendations.
Hi all - looking for a high end swag vendor for 2 different VIP groups, 30 people total. Client also has a very tight turnaround time. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Hello planners, we have some very important customers coming to visit us and we want to give them the red carpet treatment, they are only here for on day 10-2pm. They are high level and we are looking for a nice regional gift to give them, something they will hold onto. They are from PA. We are from NE/Boston area. We do not want to do alcohol or wine or food. We need to keep in mind they are flying and will get on a plane. Any ideas of what to give these high level executives as a thank you for visiting gift? Appreciate the suggestions. Thanks.
Hi Everyone! I just joined this slack today and it has already been so helpful. A couple of questions for upcoming events I have:
Anyone know somewhere fun for 20-30 people in Little Rock, Arkansas? Looking for somewhere that serves food along with some type of activity.
We make welcome bags for our annual Partnership event every year with a budget of around $200 per bag. This year the event is in Palm Springs and we are looking for new things to put in the bags other than drinking cups, speakers, and the things that are overused. We need them to be gender neutral and no sizing involved, as they aren't customized per person. We also like to add a tech item. Last year we did branded Ember mugs. Let me know if you have any new ideas your companies have been using. Thanks!!
Hi everyone and happy Friday! Please share your Bay Area recommendations for:
• printing vendors (large prints (murals) for wall wraps, elevators, etc. and also large foam letters for the stage., stage decor
• Awards/Trophies,
• And any cool table center pieces for the conference - ideas or vendors. Thank you very much!
Hi everyone! Would love some recommendations on sustainable/eco-friendly alternatives to lanyards and name badges. I've seen some badges made of seed paper and lanyards made of recycled plastic bottles but feel like the options out there are limited. Our badge vendor's eco-badges are "recycleable" but i'm looking for something that's made from recycled materials or biodegradable that still looks polished. I'm also looking for a more sustainable or eco friendly version of the typical avery 3x4 badges. We try to collect badges at the end of events and reuse the plastic slips, but I'd love to eliminate the use of plastic all together while still having the option to brand the badge.
hi everyone! looking for corporate event photographers in LA & NY for an upcoming conference we are producing! Additionally, does anyone have any recs on vendors that produce step & repeat banners? thank you!
Has anyone ever had custom scents made for an event? Like this but nicer: https://twitter.com/sandra_sobanska/status/1670850640329711616
Does anyone have a rec for a company that can embroider 300 units (most likely a shirt or sweater) for an event? Ideally located in the LA area or SF Bay Area. Don’t want to ship the inventory out of California if possible. We’ll provide the clothing to be embroidered.
Very very random ask. Does anyone know where once could purchase large amounts of these types of blankets online for an event? https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/26/arts/immigrant-blankets-arab.html
Hi All.. does anyone have a swag recommendation for the following (i've searched the thread but no luck):
• 3 x options (a backpack, duffle weekender and a tote that works for a laptop)
• Leather if possible but most likely too expensive, so faux leather if not
• Sustainable if possible, but if not at this stage then we are aware on timelines
• Backpack reference image below
• 400 x units (can be a mix of all 3 items)
• Cost per item - $100-$130 including branding
• Delivery to New York by 28th September
Looking for recommendations for websites that offer fast and reliable branded event collateral (napkins, pillows, etc.). There are so many wholesale websites out there but I don't want to use one that ends up being a scam! Thank you!
hi! Wondering if anyone has work with a vendor to create a Croc bar experience where clients get sized for them. Looking for someone who can make custom jibbitz too. Thanks!
Hi guys! I have an insane ask...looking for a vendor who can make a large amount of rave kandi by October 13. They initially said they want $350k worth of these but I’m trying to confirm that’s what they meant. The client is working is still finalizing the design. I am located in LA. Any vendor suggestion would be appreciated!
Looking for a NY based embroiderer who will do small custom orders of logos and graphics on jackets/blazers. Would love any recs!
Hi NYC! Does anyone use a mail service in the city that can accept & hold a bunch packages for a month or two? Something more than just a UPS store. Almost a mix between that & self storage.
Question for the group! Right now at my job, all of our swag/collateral/materials is being kept in the basement of our office building and manually shipped out to trade shows and events by someone in-office. Does anyone have a storage/warehousing/shipping/fulfillment service that they love? Basically I'm looking for a company that will warehouse all of our stuff + provide a portal where we can log in and select items to ship out.
Hi all- finally got stumped by looking for a vendor. Has anyone here ever heard of “tokens/coins made with a how about quote. This is a common "tradition" in corporate in which the CEO has these tokens and hands them out.” I know there are companies that make them for companies like Deloitte, Goldman, Bank of America.. thank you in advance
Hi all! Looking for sustainable swag ideas that are not water bottles. 🌱
Hi! Has anyone used Nadel for swag? Deciding between them and Canary for our flagship giveaways
Does anyone have a NYC based embroidery vendor?
I am working on revamping our anniversary milestone recognition program with some items people will covet.
We're about 2200 people in regions from India to China to Spain and the US so finding items I can make locally, since shipping into some regions isn't feasible option, is challenging.
Are any of you also running internal recognition programs that have a high level of customization by region like this?
And what specialty recognition items are you finding employees love these days?
Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a great holiday!

UK Swag Vendors - Please let me know any favorites you have. Thank you!
Does anyone have a recommendation for a vendor who can super rush a custom pin order? I need a crossed flag pin (like this) but custom with two flags that don't normally go together. I need the pins by Feb 15 so this is a super tight turnaround. I normally use Pin Mart but they don't do rush orders.
What quality swag have you guys seen so far this year? Looking for inspiration for an event in May. We'll have a few items at our booth and then a VIP experience in our suite.
Hi! Anyone have a recommendation for someone who does fully custom trophies? It’s glass with silicone designed by our in house team
Hi All -- looking to produce merch for a client event (50-75 units high-end, think: patchwork, something VIP), and then 200 units of something more generic for attendee giveaways. Any solid manufacturers? My team would design but looking to find vendor to produce ideally stateside
Hey everyone! Hope you're all having a great start to the week! I am looking for a premium swag company in California. The event I'm working on is an exclusive dining experience with a renowned chef so we need luxury branded items to be gifts for the guests as well as dressing, think embossed leather aprons, dish towels, blankets, napkins etc.
I'm based in London so have little experience with companies based out of California to have complete confidence in the quality I would be getting so any first hand recommendations would be really appreciated! Also, open to companies based elsewhere in North America as shipping is an option and would be cheaper than shipping from the UK. Thanks!
QQ: Does anyone have any new/fresh ideas for swag for team retreats/offsites?
Does anyone have a recommendation for sourcing awards? Like physical awards with an engraving?
Hi All, Does anyone have a vendor they have worked with on high-end custom swag items for guests/donors?
Hi! Every year for our annual event we give out a water bottle, pen, and notebook, so it’s very much expected by our execs and attendees BUT I’m trying to figure out a way to make this more sustainable. Any recs on how to encourage people bring their own water bottles or take notes electronically or something? Would be a nice to have to be able to move the budget, but mostly feels almost like a waste to give the same things each year when we have decent retention
