If there is one quality that applies to every customer and prospect, it’s that they can’t get through the day without using keys at work and at home. Many people like to keep more than one set of keys, which means that a personalized key chain with your company logo could be put to work immediately. Custom key chains and key rings (the terms are often used interchangeably) are so compact, they’re easy for your recipients to carry back to the office, and easy for you to ship to a trade show.  

Why custom key chains are a smart giveaway: 
  1. Customers will be reminded of your brand every time they pull out their keys. 
  2. When you include your Web site URL on your custom key chains or key rings, you make it easy for prospects to log on and learn more about your products or services.
  3. Personalized key chains and key rings are an economical way to give a practical gift that reflects your company’s good taste.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Multi-tasking key rings


When is a key ring more than a key ring? When it doubles as a pen, a voice recorder or another handy device. Give your special customers promotional key rings that go the extra mile.

I recommend: We all have those moments when we need to quickly re-fasten a screw or jot down a note but there are no screwdrivers or pens in sight. Branders.com offers personalized key rings that are attached to useful items such as compact tool sets, nail clippers and pens. Also check out TradeshowExhibitor.com where you’ll find a key ring that also serves as a voice recorder. What’s more utilitarian than a portable light source? At Absorbent, Ink you can choose from an assortment of personalized key rings with lights that can be switched on in a darkened car or elsewhere. You’ll find more multi-tasking custom key rings at Business.com.

Custom key chains with a theme


Hand out a personalized key chain that relates to your industry or a particular market segment.

I recommend: There is a themed key chain or key ring for every field. For example, looking for sports-related giveaways? PromotionalKeychains.biz carries a variety of personalized key rings for golfers as well as baseball, basketball, football and tennis enthusiasts. If you’re in an entertainment-related field, check out the key chain/movie clapboard at TradeshowExhibitor.com.

Custom key chains on a small budget


Giveaways for major trade shows and other large gatherings don’t have to put a serious dent in your promotion budget. Get your logo embossed or engraved on simple personalized key rings.

I recommend: For low-cost, customized vinyl key tags, it’s hard to beat PromotionalKeychains.biz where you design the shape and they’ll make it. From Wholesale-Carabiners.com comes another option: 5,000 key chain bottle openers or safety whistle key chains for 25 cents each, including logo engraving. Check Business.com for other deals from personalized key chain vendors.

Posh promotional key chains


If you serve a higher-end clientele, a small plastic key tag won’t do. Spend a little more and give them a personalized key chain that fits their lifestyle.

I recommend: A slide show in a keychain. Yes, at epromos.com you’ll find a personalized key chain that stores more than 50 digital photos which can be viewed on the key chain’s 1.1” LCD monitor. These custom key chains come with a USB cable for uploading photos, a charger cable and a gift box. Or, picture your logo suspended inside a diamond-shaped crystal keychain, thanks to a laser technology used by epromos.com that gives your logo, photo or other design the appearance of being suspended. At 4Imprint.com, one of many suppliers of personalized key rings and other promotional products on Business.com, you’ll find simpler personalized key rings made with high-grade leather, solid brass and zinc.

Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • Be careful to not crowd your custom key chains with too many graphics and words. Your logo and a Web site URL or phone number should be enough.
  • Tuck your custom key chains into holiday gift bags that contain items that are related to travel, automobiles or another theme associated with keys.
  • Know what you’re getting. Before placing a personalized key chain order, ask the promotional products company to send you a sample.
