aged business in the industry, Geiger

ASI, and Geiger has earned more PPAI

Giving Back.
Geiger success comes from the commu-
nities where we live, work, and do busi-
ness. Back in 1955, Ray Geiger made
a commitment to being leaders in giving
back. This has become a part of our her-
itage and is the legacy we leave behind.
Our Montello Adopt-a-School partner-
ship, established during the 1988-89
school year, received the 618th Point
of Light Award from President George
Bush. Our corporate and local offices
and associates work tirelessly to raise
money for local and national charities,
volunteer at organizations, and get in-
volved in a variety of ways.
Not only do we sell environmentally
friendly products, we continuously work
towards social responsibility and a de-
clining carbon footprint. Geiger con-
tracted with a leading shipper to have
a carbon offset for every package we
ship. We are the first company in the
Promotional Products industry to con-
tract with them. The carbon emissions of
shipments to every customer, and from
every supplier, will be fully offset – each
shipment is carbon neutral. We employ
eco-friendly and energy efficient practic-
es in our corporate and local offices to
make an impact.

The Numbers.
Promotional Products represent you and your brand. Survey after survey confirms the power of using promotional products
for your marketing efforts.
Advertising Recall. 88% of people surveyed remember
the promotional product advertiser on an item received in the
past 12 months. Furthermore; 62% can recall the message.
Repeat Exposure. 53% use their item at least once a week
and 6 in 10 keep them for up to two years.
Now you know how important promotional products can be
to your promotion; however, with hundreds of thousands of
products available, making the choice of which one to use
can feel daunting. Feeling, touching and seeing are all part of
understanding the strength a promotional product can bring
to you and your target audience. For that reason we offer ran-
dom samples, spec samples, and virtual samples.
Not only can our brand partners bring help you choose the
right item for your promotion, we can also get you the best
possible price from a reputable source. Geiger has a formal
vendor evaluation process in place. We work with hand select-
ed and rated suppliers to make sure we get the best in quality,
price, and on-time delivery schedule. Equally important, we
offer you soft costs savings in time and resources spent to dra-
matically reduce the cost of purchasing promotional products.
Services

tinue to show up in news stories across

with all laws and regulations on both a
federal and state basis. We also abide

Corporate Programs. Geiger man-
ages hundreds of successful corporate
programs for some of the most well
known brands in the country. We com-
bine eye-catching design with your pre-
defined corporate guidelines to maintain

tom build your online store. They will an-
alyze your promotional product needs,

sonality. Plus, each corporate program

Farmers’ Almanac™. In 1934, Ray
Geiger acquired the renowned Farmers’
Almanac, becoming its 6th editor. Today,
Peter Geiger, Philom., continues as ed-
itor of this publication, rich in heritage
and tradition.
Farmers’ Almanac may be old in terms
of values and years published, but our
content is current, practical, creative,
and useful to today’s dynamic readers
who are looking for valuable informa-
tion on weather, gardening, astrono-
my, cooking, remedies, managing their
households, and much more.
We pride ourselves on offering a promo-
tional version of the Farmers’ Almanac
that offers companies with similar values
an opportunity to advertise your goods
and services in a trusted and well-re-
spected medium that’s been around
since 1818. We offer you front and back
cover imprint
areas at a
price that fits
your budget.
Eight in 10 consumers own between one and 10 promotional products, six in 10
keep them for up to two years, and about half (53%) use a promo item at least once
a week or more often.

Where you are
Personal Service. One of the best aspects
of working with Geiger is the personal ser-
vice you will receive. It is my job to know your
brand standards, objectives for the promotion,
your goals and challenges, your history and
vision for the future. I will become part of your
team. You can be sure that when we choose
promotional products we select marketing
tools that produce results and focus on achiev-
ing our collective objectives.
National Representation. Your personal
service is just the tip of the iceberg. There are
over 300 employee associates in division of-
fices around the country, and in our corporate
office in Maine backing these efforts, with such
vital tasks as product research, order expedit-
ing, delivery follow-up and problem solving.
Online. If you prefer to order online, we also
offer a complete e-commerce site, with some
of our best hand-selected products. I’m still
here for you! Unlike other sites, we personally
review the orders placed on the site to make
sure the item will be produced correctly and
within your timeframe.
Contact Us. We take particular pride in
those lasting relationships that come from our
delivering value with an integrity that for us
never went out of style. Many customers have
relied on us for decades. Together, we create
lasting impressions. We look forward to ex-
ceeding your expectations.
