One of my favorite things about my job is that I get to preview new merchandise and work with different vendors from all over the world. Recently, I met with a few key people at Stormtech, a Canadian based apparel brand that specializes in offering quality outerwear to the corporate apparel market. Since 1977, Stormtech has been delivering performance outerwear for the masses. All of their products are designed, developed and tested in Canada.

It’s the beginning of November and I am already starting to plan for my Holiday shopping. I want to find quality gifts but at a great price. I love that feeling I get when I score a nice item at an excellent price! I had my personal shopping in mind when I selected our November and December Monthly Specials for Pinnacle.
The Merchandising team spent hours researching and selecting quality branded merchandise with high perceived value but at a budget-friendly price. We also looked for products that had stellar customer reviews. Nothing makes us happier than reading a great review and knowing that our products were well received and helped our client’s in their marketing and branding goals. Many of the products in the Monthly Specials category have made great client holiday gifts and employee incentives.
Here are two of my favorites products from our Monthly Specials with featured customer reviews: Continue reading →
What is sleek, available in fun colors and helps you drink more water? The bobble Filtered Water Bottle!
This ingenious water bottle is as “green” as it is good looking; the bottle itself is made from recycled materials. Each carbon filter takes the place of 300 plastic water bottles. Karim Rashid, a world-renowned innovative artist, designed the bobble.
This week I am proud to announce the addition of PUMA to our website! I have bought PUMA merchandise for years. To me the brand stands for quality, innovative styling and fun. Here is a brief look at some the PUMA products you can personalize with your logo!!! Perfect timing for holiday gifts!
My favorite piece is the PUMA Chemistry Tote. Available in four fashionable colors, this is a great bag to bring to the gym or use for daily errand running.
Chalkboards and chalkboard paint has been all the rage in interior design and home goods for the last few years. More and more homes are featuring framed chalkboards and even chalkboard painted walls and products in their kitchens, offices and playrooms. And why not? Drawing with chalk is just fun! And maybe it is nostalgic and brings you back to your school days when you dreamed of having one of those fancy chalk holders your third grade teacher had and a freshly cleaned chalkboard to draw all over. Either way, I’m sure drawing with chalk brings you back, right?
I love when a promotional product has an element of fun and the Chalk It Up Ceramic Mug has just that.
Are you looking to wow your clients or employees with a gift that shows them your gratitude? One of the hottest trends in gifting for 2012 is personalization! Who doesn’t enjoy seeing their name or initials on a gift? It can be as small as a pen with a laser engraved touch or as unique as a calendar with the recipients name in various monthly scenes 12 different times!
Every time the recipient uses their gift, they will think of you and how thoughtful you were. And chances are, they are more likely to keep that gift longer…so if you brand the item and personalize it with their initials, the impression factor is greater!
The possibilities are endless! Items that you can personalize include totes, writing instruments, fitness gear, blankets, technology cases and more! Contact your Account Team for more information on how to personalize your 2012 End of Year gifts.
Check out a few product picks that you can personalize:
Personalized Name Desk Calendar: This calendar is pretty amazing. Show your clients how fun you are by placing their name on a calendar! The recipient will see their name in 12 different settings…and your company logo will be featured in a four-color process design as well!
Now that we are into the swing of autumn, I am starting to think about useful and fun gifts for my loved ones. When I saw this unique apron with all its bells and whistles I thought of a special someone.
I was like a giddy school girl when the Go! Lunchtime container system appeared on my desk. This is not any ordinary receptacle to carry food in. With the weather changing pretty rapidly, and when I am motivated to bring my lunch, the Go! Lunchtime can accommodate soups, stews, chili -you name it!
I consider myself an authority in drinkware. For over a year and a half, one of my jobs has been to learn about and road test the latest in tumblers, mugs, cups and all promotional products. I was attracted to the Laguna Double Wall Tumbler at first sight.
