Swag Sites for Authors

I like to give away book swag, so I'm always trying to keep my stock replenished. I give away everything from bracelets to bookmarks to signed keepsake photos to keychains. I switch it up each release and will design or order custom pieces whenever possible.



NextDayFlyers - For creating simple boomarks, I tend to stick to NextDayFlyers. I tried PrintRunner and Overnight Prints before, but they just didn't look as good. Honestly, the bookmarks I received from Overnight Prints were probably the worst I've ever seen. They weren't cut straight, they had weird lines in them like someone had sat something heavy on top of them...they were just a hot mess!

Vistaprint - I can get business cards cheaper elsewhere, but I really love the way mine always turn out from Vistaprint. They're super cute (see below). And I can get matching banners for events. 


Snapfish - I order a LOT of 4x6 prints of books and keepsake photos to give away. They're cute. They're easy to sign. They're something that can be displayed instead of tossed in a junk drawer. They're just more useful than postcards. Snapfish always has great deals on prints. 

Dawn Judd Creations - Dawn makes custom keychains, bookmarks, magnets, etc. for authors. She does a really great job and the pieces are always incredible cute. They're also affordable. Shipping can take a while, so if you're ordering, make sure you order well in advance! 

Reminderbands - I love wristbands! I have a ton of them from various authors and events. I really love the quality of those I get from Reminderband. They're thicker and more durable than what I've found most other places. They're a little more expensive than most other places, but the quality is worth the added expense.

I also love to give away bracelets. For the Teplo Trilogy, for instance, I gave away ballerina infinity bracelets. For Fight for You, I'm giving away leather and metal bracelets with a favorite quote on them (Life isn't about surviving the storm, it's learning to dance in the rain). I get them from Ebay.
