Contino Wows Their Clients With New Trade Show Swag, Custom Socks!

Since 2014 Contino has been able to master and amplify the tech industry. With its competitive edge in DevOps, Data, and Cloud Transformation, this consultant agency has upscaled customer service to its clients.

“We wanted a smaller swag item with our mascot, Maurice, on it and these have gone over exceptionally well with clients and at conferences!”

Trade show swag is best impressionable with the practical nature of the item. For instance, when traveling back home, only a few items can make it in your luggage. Custom socks are one that gets packed in all nice and tight every time. Not only do custom socks have the ability to start a conversation, but the small nature of the product and wearability makes a great gift sure to be worn at your next meeting.
