New ideas are the lifeblood of the promotional products industry. End-users from all over the country are looking for new ideas from their distributors and Promo Motive is the SUPPLIER of these new ideas to Distributors.
In every business it easy to get in a rut. However, if you are a promo Distributor, getting in a product rut is a very bad idea. It is very common for Distributors to continue to go to the same old Supplier well and promote the same old Supplier ideas. Promo Motive is a supplier who does it differently. We concentrate on NEW ideas ONLY!
“Promo Motive: the Supplier Who Does Weird Well!”
New Idea #1 – Last Straw: the folding reusable drinking straw

We believe that only using ASI or PPAI search for your business is a bad idea.
Here’s why!
We have been a supplier for 20 years and there are some secrets about ASI that most distributors don’t know. It is important to know so you can make more sales and make more money.
Here are a few key things you need to be aware of.
#1 – When you see ANY search result it is PAID to be placed there by the supplier
When using product searches on ASI or PPAI you may not be seeing the best, most popular or most innovative products at all. You are simply seeing what was paid to be seen!
Suppliers pay on average 60K a year for product placement. A few years ago I bought half of 1 day a week’s banner. It cost $1500 PER DAY!
#2 – The average age of end users is 35 while the average ASI distributor age is 57
There is a disconnect in the age gap that is most apparent if Distributors ONLY use ASI and PPAI search.
As a supplier, every day I get inquiries from Distributors looking for “something their client found online!” The end user wants something unique and unusual. They don’t always want the same thing, again… and again. You need to look elsewhere!
#3 – If you only use ASI and PPAI search, what advantage do you have over your competitor?
It may seem obvious, but if you and the Distributor down the street get the same inquiry for the same general product what advantage do you have? Isn’t it then only down to price?
In the internet age, Distributors need an advantage to beat out their biggest competitor: the end user!
If you keep presenting the same old ideas as your competitor down the street you will continue to encourage the end user (remember they are 35 and web-savvy) to buy online and NOT from you.
“It’s time to think differently!”
What do YOU think?
Does this make sense to you? Is this intriguing? Is this an idea you want to explore? Join the many hundreds of other innovative forward thinking Distributors who are looking for something different.

How to sell the Folding Reusable Drinking Straw.
If you think that selling a $5 net drinking straw is a tough sell think again!
“The selling points on the folding straw is not all about the function of it, it’s about the emotional appeal of it!”
First point:
This all started with a Turtle video. The storyline is simple: ecologists and scientists working in Costa Rica come across a Turtle in distress. They pull it aboard and find a plastic straw stuck in its nose. WARNING: Video has disturbing images.
Second Point:
After over 30 million views of the video and a greater understanding of how billions of plastic straws were ending up in the oceans and staying undegradable for up to 5000 years, cities and countries banned the sale and use of disposable plastic straws.
Read about cities and companies banning straws including McDonalds!
To read the articles simply click on the links below.
It’s not about why would anyone pay $10 for a straw, but more importantly it’s about what it says about a brand to have their logo on a folding reuseable drinking straw.
Your client’s logo on a LAST STRAW says to the world that the client cares about the environment, is on top of the latest trends and lastly, but not least, they want to be seen as helping solve a recognized world problem and being a part of the solution!
Some Distributors say that “No One Will Use It!”
These distributors may be sort of right but at the same time COMPLETELY WRONG! Many people may not use it but millions will buy it!
The Last Straw folding reusable drinking straw will be a massive marketing statement for your clients. It will say to the world that they are an eco-friendly, trend-setting company. Who wouldn’t want to be this?
Delivery is 2 weeks and includes FREE SHIPPING and NO SET UPs!

The promo industry gets a great new idea for their customers’ logo: the eco-friendly, 100% rip proof, waterproof and recyclable Tvyek PPR paper wallet!
Promo Motive is at it again with a promo friendly, logo embracing new idea, the PPR Wallet.
The paper wallet has been a huge hit at retail with their artist friendly Tyvek wallets and clutches. Hipsters, Millenials, Geeks and 40 somethings are embracing this idea. Why?
The PPR Wallet is the perfect sales idea for forward thinking promotional products professionals and their millennial clients.
We have been a supplier for 20 years and pride ourselves on supplying to distributors a select offering of trending and on-point promotional products. We do not sell everything but what we do sell is what you will want to know about. (Visit our home page.)
The Eco-friendly paper PPR Wallet is a huge hit with Millenials, Geeks and Hipsters.
At the end user retail level, these paper Tyvek wallets can sell for upwards of $25. In fact, here are 3 links to retail sites that sell a similar product.
Net distributor prices for our product PPR Wallet are not as of today (June 1/2018) firmly set. The PPR Wallet is releasing in Fall 2018 (August 15 date).
However, we anticipate that a min order of 250 units with a net price of between $3-4 including set ups and freight to your door from the factory.

Promotional product professionals deserve a break. They deserve to make more money for all of the effort they put into their difficult work.
The business of selling and delivering customized promotional products often takes a bad rap but what is more problematic is that distributors are often doing it for very little profit.
ASI Distributors often deal with overly demanding clients and rush orders with unreasonable timelines. All of this would be fine if their profit was worth it but often they will do all of this work for very little in return.
“We believe that distributors deserve to make more than a lousy ‘C’!”
more than a c

Promotional product scams are everywhere. Here is how to avoid these pitfalls!
The most commonly used scam to dupe distributors by suppliers is the use of set up fees.
Set up fees are a scam employed by distributors in an effort to do a couple of things.
The first thing this accomplishes for suppliers is a revenue stream. As a long time ad specialty supplier and having worked in big suppliers in the 90’s and 2000’s I can tell you this…
“Set up fees represent as much as 32% of a suppliers gross revenue!”
set ups are a scam
Secondly, the use of set ups has come about as a way for suppliers to try and fool the unsuspecting distributor into thinking the actual price of the product is less that it is.
Set ups are also always on some weird coded price so that the supplier gets paid but you as a distributor can’t actually charge your customers any profit on that part of the sale.
“If you think of set ups as a TAX on your sale you won’t be happy!”
The other issue I have with set ups is that they are totally unnecessary and generally are a cost to you the distributor that is NOT an actual cost to the supplier. Here’s how:
Suppliers either bring in decorated products direct from offshore or decorate domestically.
As a supplier myself, who brings them in directly from China I can tell you the following. I never, ever, pay China a set up fee! NEVER.
If I don’t pay them, why should I charge you?
If a supplier decorates here in the States the idea of a set up is even more ridiculous. Ask yourself, what does a set up fee cover?
Labor? Does a decorator only pay their labor on each job (i.e. call someone in to print your job only)? No, these people are fully employed at the supplier and as such their labor is easily accounted for in the suppliers overhead.
Materials? The cost of ink is nada, zilch, bupkis.
In closing. Let’s be honest, if a supplier is charging you set up fees then you are really getting duped. The only thing that is worse than you getting duped is the end user as they hate set up fees (when they are charged by the distributor) and this is causing them to look online.
