Attach the word “new” to almost anything and images of
grandeur and innovation come to mind. A new baby—who will he resemble? A new car—what will I look like behind the wheel? New shoes—isn’t this the look everyone is going for? Inevitably, new things age and go out of style. That 8-lb. infant soon grows into a 180-lb. man; that shiny, new car has long lost its new-car smell and would be better off the road; and those new shoes...well, it’s 20 years later and they no longer exist.
Taking this into consideration, BFL&S’s sister publication, Promotional Marketing, has compiled an extensive showcase of “Hot New Products” that can stand the test of time. A company may want to recognize a valuable employee with an engraved award or thank a loyal customer with some chocolate. Whatever the case, do it with style. The following products are just a sampling of what companies have to offer this year. Flip through the following pages—something new might spark an interest!
