About Business Boosters

Hello and welcome to Business Boosters. We are a full-service promotional branding company that was started by my mom in 1983. I'm following in her footsteps and adding some of my own personal expertise to the business. Business Boosters started as wholesale screen printing, embroidery and promotional products' company. Bringing my skills as a designer and many years in the hospitality industry, I am creating a new approach to promo. One that is more creative, less boring, and has much better reach. I call it, Promotional Branding.

Promotional Branding vs Promotional Products

What is Promotional Branding? This is a term I created so not everyone may be familiar with it yet. You may know the terms 'Promotional Products', 'Promo', 'Swag', 'Merch' or 'Booth Bling' (another term I developed). I coined the term Promotional Branding to describe promotional products created with a much higher level of craft, strategy and creativity. Promotional Branding combines DESIGN & BRANDING and applies them to PROMO to create powerful communications that help boost your business.

Promotional Branding provides new insights for your business. Typically, you would have to go to a graphic design, marketing, and branding agency to get these same insights. The insights we uncover for your business will help to Improve the visibility of your brand. It will help your brand work harder for you. We apply our experience as graphic designers, package designers, branding experts, to all the things we touch. Like quality apparel, promotional items, and custom packaging. We think big, from beginning to end, about your business. Before we start, we want to know about your goals and challenges. When done right, we end up with something far greater than just a printed shirt. Rather, we begin with a story that can communicate your brand, your services and goals to a broad audience of potential customers.

How We Work

We realize the needs of our customers change from time to time. Said differently, our clients don't regularly need to recreate the wheel. So Business Boosters involves ourselves with your project as much as needed. You tell us. We can create a full campaign from the ground up. Or we can follow the production of an item and make sure it reaches its destination on time. Easy peasy.
