I got some branded swag for my startup for new customers. I literally made sure that the swag wasn't just usable but something people might actually use. For example, moleskine notebook [0], a metal parker pen[1], and a metal parker pencil. And even with it being good quality stuff, I am still worried when I give it out that it's just going to end up being tat that thrown in the bin.

Great choices!

I got a really nice notebook from incident.io. I use a lot of notebooks and this one is pretty high quality. Please people, more notebooks and more pens. Preferably erasable gel pens. Those are fantastic.
