It’s that time of year again when companies are left to choose what promotional golf gifts they are going to be giving to their customers and prospective customers. All too often, this sort of task will be delegated to an unfortunate individual, who is given a tight budget to work to, told how many items are required and expected to get the gifts ready in time, on budget and looking great.

So where are you going to begin with this search through the myriad of golfing items available? It really depends on your company’s budget per gift. If you are working to a tight budget then there is a good choice of cheaper items that you recipients will truly be pleased to receive. But if you have a larger budget to work with, the range becomes even greater and that, I suppose, is where the difficulties start. Just where do you start looking?

For the low end budget, the standard Christmas golf gift would be the printed golf balls. These are a fantastic idea for those arranging the gift, not least for their flexibility. If you are on a tight budget then you can just send a sleeve of 3 of the cheaper brand name balls to your recipients. If you have a bigger budget, or are wanting to impress your recipients, then a box of 12 high end brand balls can be given instead. Do you need a bit of both? Well that’s also simple, just choose which brand (or brands) to have printed up and for those you want to be more generous towards you give a full box, whereas those customers that aren’t so important get a sleeve of balls – just simply by splitting down the box into its 4 sleeves.

Other low cost golf items bound as well. There are the printed golf tees, which can be supplied either individually, boxed or in tee bars, with ball marker and divot repair tool attached.

For those with bigger budgets to available to spend, or simply those wanting to impress their customers more, then look at the range of promotional golf clothing and similar items. What could be better than a huge version of your logo printed onto the surface of the gift? Well this is possible using the range of printed golf umbrellas. From basic umbrellas to fancy, almost storm proof umbrellas, your choice of umbrella is massive and varied. Best of all, it’s the type of promotional gift that golfers will keep and use when necessary. When they are in use your logo is on full display. And if you have chosen to have a clear logo printed onto your umbrella, loads of people should be able to see it every time your customers are caught out in the rain.

Other items of promotional golf wear don’t have such huge logos for all to see, but are excellent for making your customers feel wanted and appreciated. Golf caps are on the lower end of the price range here, and many might see them more as general giveaways for golf events and the such likes. But there are also promotional golf t-shirts, which can be an excellent idea as they are light and easy to distribute, either through the postal system or by giving them to customers as your reps visit them.

And getting back to the keeping dry theme, there is also a great range of protective outerwear that can be printed with your logo and used as gifts. Promotional golf jackets are a good high end item to give to your customers. They really do show your appreciation of your customers and are sure to be kept safely, for that next game of golf that turns out to be wetter than expected…
