What Is SWAG

SWAG stands for Stuff We All Get.  These are useful items given to a specific group of people that is designed to reinforce a theme, a brand or an experience.

If you've ever attended a convention or expo and walked away with a bag of free stuff you've been on the receiving end of SWAG.

Merchandise with a company's branded logo such as hats, water bottles, mouse pads, pens, etc. that you receive from companies is SWAG.

Different Ways To Use SWAG

Business Gifts:  This is given to others with whom you want to enhance a business relationship with.

Incentives & Premiums:  This requires the recipient to take some specific action to obtain the incentive, such as making a purchase, exceeding a sales quota or accomplishing specific company goals.  For example, achieving sales goals.

Prizes:   Prizes are given to winner in a contest, sweepstakes or lottery.
