Holiday Shopping Tips

It's almost Halloween! Have you begun thinking about ordering your corporate holiday gifts yet? This is the time of year that inventory levels begin to get low so be sure to order your customer and employee gifts while the hottest and most sought after items are still available.



 
So, what's hot this season, you ask?
 Everyone knows how incredibly popular tablets, such as the iPad have become. A leather tablet stand is the perfect corporate gift. It doubles as a protective carrying case with a snap closure. It can be debossed or color printed with your company logo and there are options to fit every budget.


Keep an eye out for what is hot in the consumer market. Almost everyone has a smart phone these days so smart phone accessories are a great gift choice for any company with a tech-savvy customer base. They would appreciate the Brookstone Ultra-Thin Travel Speaker as it offers great sound and a convenient, hands-free way to enjoy music and movies on the go.





Lastly, who wouldn't appreciate the ultimate plush throw, combining super soft velour with micro fur that is luxurious to the touch. It's perfect for snuggling up at home. Includes zippered vinyl bag with handle. Best of all, blankets are one-size-fits-all so you won't have the hassle of determining your gift-recipient's sizes.




 Let Pennsylvania Promotions help you choose the gifts that will make your customers or employees know how much they are appreciated this holiday season. Call us for more ideas today!
