It’s Time to Show Your Gratitude with Promotional Watches

If you’re thinking of giving out promotional gifts to your clients, you’ve got the right idea! But, what to give them? How about promotional watches? Watches are classic “gratitude gifts” which are both stylish and functional. But, along with these watches, why not make an ever deeper impact on your clients? You can include something else with the watch in the box. You can include free tips on how to better manage time. Yes, the truism “time is money” works. Your clients will really appreciate your extra effort, and you’ll be rewarded sooner or later. Besides, time management tips go hand in hand with promotional watches. Your clients will appreciate your intelligence and wit as much as your gratitude.

What tips should you provide, though? Let’s look at just a few.

1) Get your salesmen to learn a concise, clear script. Yes, they can put their own personal style upon once they know it cold, but don’t let them sit there on the telephone thinking through all that they are saying. This not only wastes time, it sends a disjoined message to the prospect–which means for you even more wasted time!

2) Go for quantity and repeat business. This certainly does not mean sacrifice quality for quantity (only quality brings repeat business). It means get multiple orders, bundled orders, or year-long orders from one client all at once. Talk about efficiency! You can offer them discounted rates for their bundled orders or up-front long-term orders, too. Oh, and that repeat business saves you time off from finding new clients.

3) Have your ducks in a row up front. The more precise and accurate your initial order to your suppliers and vendors, the less time spent reworking, revising, or correcting mistakes.

Yes, give your clients free knowledge as well as the free watches. You’ll retain them and get more referrals.
