Taking the Stress Out of Custom Stress Relievers

By Dean Schwartz: Stress relievers. We’ve all used them. They’re typically ball shaped, resting on our desks, just waiting to be squeezed or thrown at the wall when Jim from accounting forgets to file our expense reports for the hundredth time, or when the printer runs out of toner just minutes before a major presentation.And they work, don’t they?

The rest of the time, they’re seen as static objects that rest on our desks for decoration. Typically a nice sphere with a pop of color, featuring a branded logo on the front, it’s like a mini billboard for your business.

And that’s a good thing.

But did you know you could make custom stress balls or custom stress relievers? And I’m not just talking about different colored stress balls. I’m talking any object you want turned into that cushy, stress-relieving material and making it happen.

Whether it’s your company or team mascot, a movie character, or even an ice cream cone stress reliever. Heck, how about a corn on the cob with a cape on it?

How about something built out of thin air and imagination from the SOBO SWAG team?

The minimum to make a custom shape stress reliever is 1,000 pieces. 

To make a custom shaped stress reliever, there is a processing fee of $650. And here’s what you get for it: design detail assistance, manufacturing the pre-production proof and airfreighting of artwork and samples to and from the factory. You also get 3-4 items colors with a one color/one location imprint. 

The item price is based on the item size, the number of item colors, the number of imprints and the overall complexity of the shape. Typically the price for 1,000 pieces of a fully customized design to your liking is around $2.50-$4.20 net per piece. Not bad at all, especially if it means your brand will be held “tenderly,” or at least looked at, on a daily basis
