Customized company swag

Remote workers want to feel like they’re part of your team, too! Here are some ideas to reward remote employees and show them that you care:

• Send each remote worker a sweet branded beanie with tasteful design details.
• Make some adorable custom straw hats and ship them out to your remote workforce. 
• Get the shoe sizes of each remote employee and customize a run of Vans high-top shoes in the correct sizes. Ship each person a pair of Vans with your company branding and a really cool design. As an alternative, you could do custom high-top Converse shoes.
• Make some cool branded tech accessories such as phone charger packs, USB sticks, or Bluetooth speakers. 
• If you want to go bigger, make up a custom swag box for each employee. Stuff each company swag box with high-quality products such as branded tech gadgets, custom gear, and branded apparel from popular labels such as Under Armour, Carhartt, and Mammut. Custom swag kits are always a hit.

Branded corporate swag can promote customer loyalty, so long as you have a good brand and a quality product or service.

1. Merchandise serves as free advertising and reinforces brand recognition. When customers use or wear items with your logo, such as t‑shirts, water bottles, or pens, it increases visibility and awareness of that brand. This repetitive branding can lead to higher recall and favorability.
2. It creates positive associations with the brand. Swag is usually given away at company events, sales meetings, trade convention booths, etc. Receiving these items makes customers feel valued and builds goodwill towards the company. It reinforces positive experiences they’ve likely already had.
3. It’s a conversation starter that leads to engagement. Using a branded bag, hat, or other item often sparks conversations: ​“Oh I love that company, their products are great!” This provides a subtle opportunity to highlight brand benefits and features.
4. It encourages reciprocity and loyalty behaviors. According to social psychology, when given an unsolicited gift customers feel obliged to give back. Having promotional items can prompt customers to choose that company over competitors in future purchases.

For swag to really impact loyalty, there should be an existing strong brand and high-quality product. Without that solid foundation, promotional items cannot single-handedly lead to loyalty.
