American Heart Month – Heart Health Awareness

Posted on February 1, 2010 by alana

February is American Heart Month, as proclaimed by the president every year since 1963. Join us in promoting healthy hearts and healthy Americans by raising awareness in your company and community.

Heart disease, including strokes, are our nation’s number one killer, as according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Coronary heart disease is the most common among heart diseases, and often manifests itself as a heart attack. Approximately 785,000 new heart attacks in America took place in 2009 as well as 470,000 recurring heart attacks, that adds up to 1,255,000 heart attacks in America in 2009 alone! Every minute someone in America dies from heart disease.

Heart shaped stress relievers will raise awareness as well as lower stress levels in your employees.  For schools, state departments, and insurance companies we recommend the custom heart-shaped stress reliever to show recipients you care. For hospitals, drug companies, and doctors offices we recommend the imprinted anatomical heart-shaped stress reliever as it makes a great example when explaining stress to patients.

Customized Hand Warmers

Posted on January 20, 2010 by jen

OK, I am dating myself here, but after 20 plus years in the industry there are not many new products that come across my desk that get me excited.

But, this week we are introducing what I believe to probably be the best new promotional product for 2010 and beyond.  We are launching a great new product: one-time-use hand warmers!  These are a must have for any sport played in cool weather: soccer, football, hockey… The fans as well as the players (and the parents!) will appreciate these.

These have no dangerous chemicals, and they last up to 8 hours.

A great advertising  item for the construction trades, ice fishing tournaments, hunting and fishing organizations,  ranchers, farmers, and oil field workers.

The other reason I love these hand warmers is because you can buy them with your logo or message on them for about the same price they retail for blank!  Ski resorts can  print their logo or a future lift ticket coupon on the package and give them to the larger groups that visit the slopes.  Ski patrols can print them with the fun slogan, “You Fall We Haul” and give them to skiers and snowboarders that need assistance.
