According to data from the Research Department of InformaBTL, in 2018, 87 percent of Mexicans received at least one promotional item, and 85 percent said that they use these products.

Data from this research department indicate that among the advantages it offers, there are points that stand out and make this marketing action one of the favorites for certain brands.
- Reminder: not only is it about having the name and image of a company in mind, but also to encourage your recall influences future purchases that will favor the brand in question, in addition to promoting the preference towards it.
- Generate a purchase: special edition glasses, cylinders with a certain image, notebooks with personalized designs, among others can lead a consumer to buy a good or service, just to get that promotional, and in Mexico there are people who would even pay more for a product, as long as you have the promotional that accompanies it.
- Win the customer’s preference: by making this type of items appeal to the emotional side of customers, it is easier to gain the preference of the target, since giving these products denotes a form of appreciation by the brand.
