I'm looking around my office and I see a magnifying glass, hand sanitizer, a stress ball, pens, a backpack, a coaster, a cozy and a couple of technical books geared towards a specific product. All of which are swag. I never once looked at having any of it as being "cheap", nor has anyone else mentioned anything along those lines. You have to be a real "snob" to think that accepting advertising material that you can actually make use of is being "cheap". In fact, the swag is doing its job, I am reminded of each of those companies. | |
