Ask yourself whether you are buying Keyrings for promotional purposes or as a gift to charm your loyal customers.

Keyrings As Promotional Giveaways
When you have a promotion or advertising campaign, and you would like to hand out promotional keyrings as part of this campaign, it will usually be aimed at a large sector of the general public and you would hand it out in masses.
In these cases you would purchase cheaper types of keyrings wholesale and make use of more economic printing techniques to have your logo or brand printed on it. It is not necessary to choose something expensive like a silver kee or a metal keyring, but a simple plastic keyring with a single colour print on it will be effective enough. As long as your logo and company contact details are clearly visible and the hand-outs are part of a marketing message that includes a strong call to action.
Because of the volumes of promotional keyrings that one would normally procure, it is usually possible to negotiate substantial discount. And more often than not, the keyring suppliers are also willing to include free prints with your order.
Keyrings As Corporate Gifts
When you are planning to hand out _*Keyrings*- as corporate gifts to loyal clients or to prospective clients at companies where you wish to attract more business, you would put a lot more thought into it. Cheap types of Keyrings such as plastic key rings and acrylic keyrings will simply not do.
You should much rather give your client something that will make him or her feel special and that they can preferably use on a daily basis. Here are some key ring gift ideas:
- A metal key ring that has a holder where the recipient can insert a photo of his/her chum or companion. Maybe even give him/her an exact replica for his/her partner;
- A Keyring with a metal chain and holder that can hold an id or driver’s license;
- A Keyring with a split function that can also be used as an opener;
- A custom made key ring that says something about your company. If you have a car dealership for example, then it could be a miniature duplicate of one of your cars.
Finally, it is always stunning to have your company details and a special message or the name of the recipient engraved on the key ring.
Also remember that the designs for printing your logo would be somewhat different for Keyrings than what it would look like on paper. So once your printers have created a design that you feel fits your corporate image like a glove, then keep that on file for future purposes.
