Build A Buzzworthy Event

09-27-2021



Tradeshows, conferences, 5Ks, golf outings – big events are back, and the right gifts can play a huge part in their success. A swag bag full of popular products is a great way to make an impression on attendees, presenters and sponsors. Whether your event is in-person or virtual, we’ve got some ideas that are sure to create a ton of buzz.


In-Person Events


When clothing is stylish and comfy, people will wear it all the time. It’s an easy way to score some extra brand impressions.

Our Pick: Dade Short Sleeve Polo | TM16398/TM96398
Our most popular polo for more than one reason. It’s polished enough for the conference, yet casual enough for drinks afterward. And with breathable, moisture-wicking fabric, it’s comfy to wear all day. Available in 19 colors.


Totes are an event staple. And as sustainability becomes a bigger priority, a bag made from recycled material is a gift you can feel good about. 

Our Pick: Recycled Cotton Convention Tote | 7901-06
An on-trend tote that’s sure to turn heads at the tradeshow. And the eco-friendly recycled fabric is sturdy enough to carry all that swag. Through a partnership with 1% For The Planet, one percent of all eco sales are donated to environmental nonprofits.


Looking for an item everyone can enjoy? Drinkware is the way to go. It’s something they’ll use every day, and the event logo will be seen with every sip.

Our Pick: Zigoo Silicone Collapsible Bottle 18oz. | 1628-53
This lightweight bottle collapses to half its original size, making it super portable and easy to store. It even has a matching carabiner, so you can clip it to a bag and go.


Virtual Events


If they’re attending the event from home, they might as well be comfortable. A cozy hoody is something they’ll continue to wear long after the event is over.

Our Pick: Dayton Classic Fleece Hoody | TM18216/98216
A relaxed look with lots of style. And it’s made from a super soft cotton-poly blend, so it’ll keep them comfy all day.


A notebook always comes in handy at a tradeshow or conference, whether it’s for jotting down notes during a big presentation or getting contact info from a potential customer.

Our Pick: 5.5” x 8.5” Walton Wireless Charging JournalBook® | 2800-58
This stylish journal doubles as a wireless charging pad, so it’s useful in more ways than one. It even comes in its own gift box!


Include some nice headphones or earbuds in your swag bag. They’re great for virtual meetings, workouts, plane rides or walking the dog.

Our Pick: Hush Active Noise Cancellation Bluetooth® Headphones | 7197-47
Active Noise Cancellation blocks out distractions with the push of a button. And with 15 hours of premium stereo sound at max volume, these headphones will last all day long. Memory foam earpads make them extra comfy, and the built-in microphone and music controls are perfect for meetings. They even come with a woven travel pouch, so they’re easy to take with you on the go.
