I was in the market to buy some promotional products to advertise the tenth anniversary of my children’s clothing store and I was amazed at what was available. I wanted to get something that would appeal to the kids as well as the parents and when I saw the catalogue I had no idea where to start.

There was even a whole section on corporate gifts. I wasn’t really interested in this at the particular time, but I knew this may come in handy as my business keeps growing and growing. I have three times the staff that I had when I started ten years ago and we have had to move to a bigger location twice.

I decided that I was going to get tiny teddy bears wearing advertising T-shirts for my promotional items. The kids loved them and I am sure that, if the kids are anything like my own, their mothers would be picking these things off the floor day after day and would always be reminded that I am here.
