Pandora offers Holiday Gift with Purchase

Danish jewellery manufacturer and retailer Pandora has a new Gift with Purchase for this years holiday season. Pandora pendants are a popular gift to give during Christmas, so combining this peak season with a festive Gift with Purchase might just boost sales to close the year with a bang.





This free ornament can be obtained by spending $125 on Pandora products. This makes the gift feel luxurious and sought after. The Christmas ornament comes in a pretty gift box, so this can automatically used as another Christmas gift to friends or family.

Why do we like this Free Ornament?

Pandora is a luxurious brand. During Christmas, people like to give each other fancy gifts. Jewellery is always a popular gift, so by offering a Christmas ornament makes the brand look more appealing to the Christmas shopping public. This ornament can be used year after year, leading to long-term Brand Recognition. Two gifts in one!

Custom Bottle Opener from Used Bullets

With imagination, anything can become a very interesting promotional product. ASI recently had an interesting article about Eli Crane who did just that. He was inspired by a gift his brother brought back from the Philippines: a used .50 cal bullet reshaped as a bottle opener. 



Eli, who used to be in the Navy SEALs at the time, customised it and it became an immediate hit with his colleagues. He decided to make more, and started gathering expended ammunition. After a few months, his earnings rose from 375$ to $ 80,000 a month due to better quality materials and good Brand Recognition. 

Why do we like this Custom Bottle Opener?

What really speaks from this item is that the company understands brand recognition very well. Every piece is engraved with a logo and date, so everyone who uses this will be able to learn who made it. This makes it easy for a brand name to spread.

Secondly, the Bottle Breachers have a high design appeal. The coloured designs on the expended bullets make the items pop out, plus giving an item a second life like this is good for the environment. Combining this with the fact that part of the earnings go to charities designed to help US Army veterans, definitely helps to boost Brand Image!
