There are some other nice gimicks, like vests, stickers and AFAIK even 
bedclothes ;)

In Germany we mostly use flyers but even for 'serious' audience like 
universities, goverment,... a book might be a good choice.

I read that the OSMF US is starting a bigger merchandising campaign, 
they might have another ideas.

Yes its a goo Idea,
Some of the options has been already listed by the other members,
I would like to suggest you the OSM Stickers, OSM Pens, Pencils, OSM
batches to attach with the any t shirt, Work Shop or participation
certificates.
We like to use the all of them here, because all these things makes
the participants feel good while attending the workshops or
presentation.

[OSM-talk] OSM Gift Ideas

2011-06-10 Thread Kate Chapman
Hi All,

I've been doing workshops in various communities and universities.  Sometimes 
it is appropriate to bring a gift to exchange.  Does anyone have any ideas on 
suitable items?

Ideally it would be something to be shared among the group.  Not sure really 
what would be best, originally I was thinking along the lines of a plaque, but 
looking for additional ideas.

Thanks!

-Kate

I love the OpenStreetMap mugs myself. They can be used as a trophy but
also for everyday use (I prefer the latter).

Kate,

We have made and given away mugs[1], pencils and t-Shirts[2], and the last
ones have proven to be the most effective way of advertising the project.
Even though t-shirts are relatively expensive compared with the other two
options, they are walking publicity, the first two just stay over someones
desk, at most been seen by his/her coworkers.

different gifts for different purposes.

mugs are good if you're doing an OSM presentation for, say, a users
group and you want to raffle off one or two items.

t-shirts are good for the obvious reasons.

i like car window stickers, i'd be happy to put a OSM stickers on my
rear quarter windows next to the two organization stickers
that are already there.
