As some of you know, I own and run an executive recruiting firm as my occupation. A major part of my job is marketing and developing new business. I found a creative new marketing technique that is much better than sending a brochure or other marketing collateral. If you are a business owner or trying to get your freelance career of the ground, you may be interested in this. The site is called FlashDrive.com and they can create you a personalized usb drive made out of any material complete with your business name or company logo. I am thinking about ordering a couple of dozen with my company logo on it and then downloading a brief presentation. That way my prospect will be sure to view it and they will also be able to use the drive in the future. Each time they pop the drive into their computer, they will be thinking about you and your company.
You can also send out personalized flash drives to your current customers and it is the perfect idea if you are running a booth at an upcoming conference, especially if it is a technology oriented event. It will leave a much better impression then simply handing out a pen.

This is definitely a good idea for a promotional gift. I think most people are sick and tired of receiving a pen — its gotten old. This is a neat idea.

Without a doubt an excellent promo piece, small business owners are notorious for not doing these types of things. Such a bad move.

It really help to build brand awareness. I mean when your customers are staring at your logo every day they’re bound to remember it.

This would be a pretty decent idea! The only thing I would worry about is the overhead cost!
How much is it going to cost to market your potential prospects if your sending out USB flash drives
I’m thinking this! I like your idea but perhaps it shoudl only be used for high potential prospects?
This way your cost woudl be paid off after you complete one sale.
