Just in case, you think that the biggest challenge while buying promotional merchandise is in selection of the product, what about choosing the right promotional merchandise companies?
Promotional merchandise companies play a vital role while selecting promotional merchandise. This is because if they don't deliver exactly what you asked them, you are in a big trouble.
Let us discuss the right techniques to opt for the right <a href="http://www.dowlis.com/shop/promotional_merchandise.asp">promotional merchandise companies</a>.  
Check Whether the Supplier is Genuine or Not
You will never think of sending thousands of pounds off to a supplier before knowing to whom you are sending the money to. Isn't it? There are a few methods by which you can avoid getting caught by fraudsters.
1.Check out what associations a potential supplier belongs to. Don't just assume that a supplier surely belongs to an association by simply looking at a logo on their site.
2.Send an e-mail to the membership department; they will surely assist you in confirming the supplier's membership.
3.BPMA, which is British Promotional Merchandise Association, can provide you with the list of companies that are registered under it.
 
Checking the Supplier's Location and Facilities She/he Offers
Checking where the supplier is based and what facilities are on offer is important. Look for various internet sites and check whether the supplier's address and contact is easy to get or not.
Also, ask whether you are being provided with all the possible facilities or not.  
Confirming whether Supplier buys from Manufacturer or Middleman
A good supplier will be happy to offer you with the references of satisfied clients. Besides this, you can also find information about the clients your supplier has worked for past on his website. Do not hesitate to ask specific questions from the supplier. You may even ask for one or two names of people involved with some big organisation, where you can send an e-mail for a reference check.
Whom does your Potential Supplier Buy from
If possible, always buy as close to the source of the product as you can. Each and every link in a supply chain adds cost to your products. Therefore, keep the chain short, as it will reduce your costs.
Check for Hidden Charges
Check for the hidden charges, if any, in advance itself. This way, you will be able to avoid any last minute hassle.
Finding a good promotional merchandise supplier isn't a difficult task if you are ready to put in the ground work. Check as many times as you can, and if there is even a single doubt ask for a reference from your friends or colleagues.
