Mouse Pads for Marketing

A new study shows that more than two-thirds (68%) of working Americans use a computer at work, and 84% say it is essential to their jobs. Why does this matter to your marketing?

A new study shows that more than two-thirds (68%) of working Americans use a computer at work, and 84% say it is essential to their jobs.  As computers become more prevalent in our lives and occupations it is opening up prime real estate for one of my favorite promotional products: the custom mouse pad.

These are fantastic for promoting the launch of a new website, handing out at trade shows, or simply building brand loyalty by rewarding your clients with a gift of appreciation.  While pens and small trinkets with a low perceived value may get tossed or lost, a quality mouse pad is rarely discarded and last on average six months to five years.  That is a lot of daily impressions your logo will attract not only from the intended receiver, but from their co-workers as well!   

Full-color custom mouse pads are affordable, effective and available in a wide ranges of sizes, thicknesses and shapes.  Free set-up and stock backgrounds are available with our supplier, Bic Graphic, who offers low minimum orders of 100 pcs. and very competitive pricing at $2-5 ea. for standard styles. These are printed and assembled in the United States which allows for a quick 3-5 day turnaround and exceptional service as well. There are higher end leather mouse pads and executive gift sets available from other suppliers, but the full color fabric tops are certainly the most popular.
