Compact and portable, the USB flash drive has become invaluable in our society. As an easy-to-use storage device for our growing collections of files, it is a must have item for any busy student. This is why flash drives make perfect gifts, enticements and products for college campuses and school bookstores.

When colleges were recruiting back in the twentieth century, you would get a lot of printed reading material, maybe a pen, or a Frisbee, or some other promotional junk as a reminder of your five minute interview. As a recruiter, imagine the impression you would make if you gave out something as useful and modern as a USB flash drive. It's the perfect branded promotional product, as it's something that a student would use everyday and have on hand.

USB flash drives are also a great gift or incentive promotional product for acquiring and keeping alumni. Alumni associations work hard to keep valuable donation providers coming in, and the best way to get something from alumni is to show them some appreciation in return. For a certain donation level, they might receive a fine USB Pen Drive or Tie Clip Drive as a promotional product. As alumni are probably now busy professionals, they'll use their new flash drive with pride, whether it features the school colors, logo, mascot or all of these. The alumni association gets the donations they so desperately need, and the alumni themselves get a great gift that they will use regularly.

Of course, USB flash drives emblazoned with school colors and more are great products in the school bookstore, providing promotional opportunities every time a student pulls them out, and giving the bookstore another valuable way to earn money. USB flash drives are best promoted on end caps near the check-out along with other impulse items like pens, pencils, tape and other goods.

There is a lot of potential for USB flash drives as promotional products, and are useful in bookstores at every level from high school to community college to university, and for every stage of the student's career, from recruiting to keeping in contact long after they've graduated.

PromoKeychain.com has the perfect styles for promotional USB flash drives, from standard sticks to football jersey styles to popular keychains, and lanyards; everything the busy student needs.
