Most Popular Promotional Item

Most Popular Promotional ItemIt comes as no surprise to us here at PremiumUSB.com to hear that the number one promotional item among college students is the USB Flash Drive! Of course it is not hard to see why; today’s generation of college students was practically raised from childhood with a flash drive in their hand. Most children these days don’t know what a floppy drive was or even how it worked, so is it so surprising to see that the little device we all take for granted has now become the number one most wanted promotional item?

We don’t think so! At Premium USB we have been testing, using, creating, distributing, and giving advice on USB flash drives for years. The little device has revolutionized the way we store data and has created a medium for data transfer that is much easier than conventional CDs or DVDs. Students are using these flash drives to store their course work, papers, research projects, etc. and are doing it all in a flash!

USB flash drives have become so popular that students are not the only ones taking advantage of this “handy” technology; teachers, professors, faculty, and even entire Universities and colleges are now offering USB flash drives as part of their curriculum. It is actually required for some classes in some Universities to buy a USB flash drive that has been preloaded with course content. These preloaded USB drives are often custom made, custom printed, and often bundled with other course materials for purchase at the schools bookstores.

Speaking of University bookstores, students are buying USB flash drives at a higher rate than in previous years. Maybe it’s due to price, capacity, design, or school spirit, but we like to think it may be all of these put together. Custom flash drives are proving to be an extremely valuable asset to Universities all across the nation. With custom flash drives, Universities are able to not only preload a USB drive with content, but they are also able to choose the drives color, material, and what printing options they want. These drives make great educational tools and allow universities to stay in touch with a newer generation of students. These are also a great way to promote school spirit!

Some universities are taking the custom flash drives one step further and are stocking custom shaped USB drives. These drives don’t have a printed mascot on them because these USB drives are the mascot itself! Custom shaped drives are custom molded out a variety of materials and can be made into almost any shape imaginable. Of course these drives are also custom preloaded to maximize the value.

The USB flash drive has come a long way since its birth, but as we can see by the mass adoption of college students and the overwhelming success Universities are having with their custom flash drives, it is safe to say that the USB is only going to get bigger and better!
