If you are trying to promote brand awareness,Promotional Calendars - The Corporate Gift That is Looked at All Year Articles it is very important to find promotional gifts that your customer will look at daily. Things such as crystal paperweights and silver clocks that stay on your customer's desk are always a popular choice. Desktop gifts can be a little pricey, however, so if you are on a tight budget, you might like to consider using promotional calendars.

Corporate calendars come in many shapes and price brackets. For those on a really tight budget, you may like to look at the good quality PVC tent calendars. You have probably seen these on someone's desk before. They can be printed up to full colour and have a little daily calendar with tear off sheets. Starting at around 65p each they are a really popular way to get your company name where it should be: on your customer's desk.

Slightly more expensive are the new CD case desk calendars. These look very similar to a clear plastic CD case. They fold back on themselves so that they stand upright on your customer's desktop. You have your choice of many different calendar themes or you can supply your own unique photos. The price is the same regardless of if you choose the stock photo option or you want a more bespoke look. Starting at around £1.55 each they are a very popular calendar that will sit, printed with your logo on details, on your customer desk year round.

Wall calendars are by far the most popular if budget allows. You can actually still purchase an A4 size 13 month wall calendar for around £1.15 each. The larger calendars can be much more expensive with a starting price of between £6.00 and £10.00. These larger calendars look great in the office. Each calendar month can be printed with your logo and details so that your information is always in eye view. There are many different themes to choose from such as wildlife, automobiles, glamour, old photos and the seaside. With advances in digital printing, it has also become possible for companies to create bespoke wall calendars for around the same price but the lead-time can be substantially longer.

Please note that every year businesses are let down because they do not get their first choice. If you are hoping to give your calendar out just before Christmas, you should start looking in August and place an order. The most popular calendars go first. If you want to ensure that you get your preferred calendar design you must order a few months before Christmas.
