Anywhere, ANYWHERE??

And the latest ‘Promo-tat’ award goes to…. ‘The Anywhere Magnet’, the magnet that once stuck remains stuck. Yep, it can be placed anywhere, but once you have positioned the strong, adhesive metallic back to the desired surface there’s no moving it. Utter tat!

Every year tonnes of tat end up on our landfill sites, and companies be aware, the shame doesn’t stop there. For hundreds and thousands of years to come these plastic promotional gifts will be lying there, very slowly decomposing and weighing on your company’s morals the whole time.

Here at Re-Sourceful we’re putting in the effort to change the way businesses promote themselves. We’re not just about criticising, Re-Sourceful offers innovative, sustainable, alternatives to brands that genuinely want to connect with their customers in a relevant and meaningful way.

We have a whole range of eco-friendly promotional goods, and we are always happy to don our thinking caps and meet the most bizarre of bespoke demands. 

Our latest ‘Promo-tat’ offenders are now live and vying for the dishonour of the tatiest piece of promotional merchandise around. So have a look at http://www.re-sourceful.co.uk/promotat/index.php and vote for your favourite.

Next time someone sends you a piece of merchandise that makes you think ‘why…?’, rather than throw it straight in the bin, why not send it to us and nominate it for “Promo-tat of the Month” instead? It’s just a bit of fun, but the message is a serious one. Say no to “Promo-tat”!

please discuss:

I love this site - awful tat...deservedly ridiculed. Keep up the good work Re-Sourceful.

The pop up mailer - horrendous! Of no value - and it takes up all the room in your waste bin when you have to throw it away. How does this say something worthwhile about anything?

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry, really. Who on earth would want any of this stuff? My vote definitely goes to the Mailer Pop-up. At least the others are pretending to be useful!

Mind boggling, a magnet that has to be glued to the wall, how do people think of these things! Promo-tat is a great initiative, I hope you manage to raise the standard of corporate gifting.

It makes me angry seeing this useless tat. Is anyone ever pleased to receive this stuff? Whoever approved the purchase of this in an organisation should stop wasting time and do something more creative with their money!

The pop-up thing looks utterly pointless - if I got this through the post it's not going to create a good impression in my mind. I can only imagine it having a detrimental impact on brand image.
