So, I googled "New Trade Show Giveaways for 2019" this week, to take a look at where our blog ranks in results, and I frankly couldn't believe some of what I saw. The top 10 trade show giveaways for this year are pens, notebooks, and chargers? LOL.
I don't have time to make up BS blogs and I'm not here to waste your time, or my own. Those are the top categories in promo sales and guess what? Always have been. Well, except for chargers. Those have only been a top category this century. Do you want me to talk about what was trendy last century? (pens totally were!) I can do a whole thing on Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I mean, I can go on. I do love my Buffy. How relevant would that be in the year of Captain Marvel though? Interesting in an "how we got here" historic sense, and certainly something I should know, but it doesn't help you for your May 2019 event.
Snag Your Swag specializes in the hottest trends, the best new swag, the on-fire brands - from this century - and how you can best incorporate them into YOUR brand. We are so proud of our actual expertise because we have worked hard for it and continue to work hard for it every day of every year. Industry shows all over the country, fashion shows, stalking fashion magazines (also Tom + Lorenzo's fabulous blog OF COURSE), walking high end shops weekly...we are pretty much always on the job.
So let's get on with some actual useful trends in corporate gifts for 2019, shall we?
Matte Gray
Matte gray is such a big trend right now and I love it because it is so sophisticated. Here are some great, new ways you can use this trend to elevate your brand. Please click on the pictures for additional product details.

Sustainability
I hesitate to call sustainability a trend, because it's so much more. Also, trend implies that someday the trend will end. Unfortunately, I don't think that's going to be the case here. I would love to write a blog in the near future, oh sustainability is so passe! Phew! We solved that! Next!
That's not going to happen so sustainability is our future. If you want your brand to be have a young, energetic, modern vibe, you need to incorporate this. And practice what you preach, because Millenials and the rising Gen Z can smell fakery a mile away. Look to Patagonia for a master class on being real. Millenials have moved into higher marketing positions so fast, and I love it. Many of you reading this, don't need me to tell you about walking the walk and being real. You're there. You're living it. If you're not though, take strong note before proceeding with this.
Today I want to introduce you to an exciting new sustainable line called Parkland. The exteriors of the Parkland line are made from 100% recycled water bottles. And this is not a case of "oh they have a good personality." They are quite hot looking to boot, thank you! Let's take a look:
