Take a Strike Against Cold and Flu Season

Each year everyone stresses the idea of protecting yourself in cold and flu season. But honestly does the flu affect us all? And the bigger picture is how do we protect ourselves?

The truth is 1 in 5 Americans get the flu each year. The United States Center for Disease Control estimates that between 3,000 and 49,000 people die from influenza each year, 90% of which were under the age of 65.

People at high risk are children 6 months to 5 years old, pregnant women, anyone who lives with or cares for infants, health care workers, and adults over 50.

The combination of pneumonia and influenza is the nation’s eighth leading cause of death.

Now that we know the facts, how do we protect ourselves?

Through endless research we have compiled a list of the best tips to prevent your exposure to the cold and flu this season.

  • Eat lots of fruits and vegetables! (for maximum vitamins and minerals)
  • Make sure your hands are clean. Use hand sanitizer or wash hands with warm soapy water.
  • Keep your hands away from your face.
  • Get moving! Exercise boosts immune function.
  • Get plenty of sleep and rest.
  • Decrease stress and meditate
  • Diffuse essential oils into the air (eucalyptus is a great option).
  • Be sure to sneeze properly (into your elbow).
  • If you get sick, stay home.
  • And the single best way to prevent the flu is to get a flu shot.

Be prepared to combat cold and flu germs throughout the day with a bottle of SnugZ hand sanitizer, available in a variety of scents and easy to carry bottles. Check out a few of our favorites like ZSCP or ZS19.

You never know when those germs will strike so keep SnugZ handy this season!

Color Blocking



Colors affect us in countless ways – mentally and physically, consciously and subconsciously.

Psychologists suggest that color impression can account for 60% of the acceptance or rejection of a product or service. Good color choice can make all the difference and accounts for an increase in brand recognition by 80%.

With our SweetZ line, a full offering of color blocking is available in numerous fill options, which not only allowing you to customize your product based off of the color of your logo, but also make the color parings endless!

The 5th Sense


Everyone knows what the smell of fresh cut grass is, or the sound of the ice cream truck rolling down the street, the feeling of an ice cube in our hands or what neon lights look like at night. But when was the last time you had a delicious freshly baked cookie, or tasty treat? Chances are, you could tell us when and where, because an individual’s sense of taste is a powerful way of triggering a memory.

The holiday season is right around the corner and what better way to connect with your customers then by hitting all 5 senses? Sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste! Taste seems to be the most complicated barrier to break, but why is it so important?

When someone tastes something enjoyable, like a candy or cookie, a positive feeling occurs. When people often think back to the particular food item they ate, it takes them back to the same experience they had while eating it. Giving that personal, and yet subconscious, touch will ultimately be the reason you are remembered.

Our SweetZ are perfect for any occasion or opportunity to create a lasting impression.

Why choose compliancy?

 

In the promotional marketing industry, it is important to stress the value of compliancy for many reasons. First and foremost, “It’s the law,” states Richard Massey, in charge of Regulatory Affairs at SnugZ USA. “We ensure that we have done what we can to make our products safe.”

It is essential to create a safe environment for our employees and our customers. In doing so, we are one of the only lanyard, personal care, and food and gift facilities to be Quality Certification Alliance (QCA) accredited. We meet the QCA high standards for quality, are compliant, and socially responsible.

According to the QCA website, the “QCA Accreditation is a process of comprehensive validation that confirms a promotional products supplier has processes in place intended to detect and deter any non-compliant product from entering the marketplace. The QCA Certification Process harmonizes the ever-increasing array of compliance tools, identifies the most rigorous standards, measures these standards, and continuously revises and updates the measures and methodology to reflect evolving concerns. Accreditation / Certification is granted to companies who complete an independent third-party audit and comply with stringent standards, which are based upon a combination of state and national laws, international standards and industry-accepted best practices that are recognized for their strength and effectiveness by QCA Accredited companies, the promotional products industry and end-user clients.”

Having this accreditation of compliancy guarantees our customers a quality product they can trust. Our products have a low risk for potential recall issues, in turn, reducing cost and wasted time. This also allows us to improve products and standards within the industry, while making a positive environmental impact.

We don’t think compliancy is a choice; it’s a professional responsibility.

Spring Skincare

Spring weather is quickly approaching and everyone seems to be making their way outside again. Although, with the outdoors, comes the need to protect your skin. The best way to do that this year is to start using sunscreen earlier on—even before summer.
