My client first called me on prices of bobble heads of their companies owner. The lowest price on 100 7" bobble heads was $20 each and two months to deliver.

I need an idea to present to them that would be ready in 5 or 6 weeks and be fun to have on the desk or wear that has the boss's likeness on it.
I have thought of a wind up head that walks or maybe an ID BADGE clip (you know the ones that extends on a cord ) where the main part of the badge clip would be a mold of his head or something.

They would buy more if it was cost effective (the employees are paying for it themselves...)

What do you think???

Thanks for your thoughts

Kent

I don't know what the time frame is for the bobble head pins, but that may work, or else a coffee cup with a picture of the boss on it (full color or sketched).

Very neat site Royce, I was thinking a caricature would be cool on a mug.

Wasn't there a supplier offering a locally-made custom shaped USB drives? They would print full color digital print with an epoxy dome coating, and the shape of the drive was a die cut. The outline of his head would have to be rounded out a bit, but you could add a background color or more hair to take away sharp corners.

A USB drive would be useful and funny too. Info in the bosses head, or what's on the bosses brain?

Hi Kent, about custom bobble head, no need so many weeks and pricing is far below USD 20.00, I may reply you tomorrow with our preferential offer, in usual case, 4 weeks would be utmost lead time we need, we deliver products by courier, either Fedex or DHL from China. if your customer still prefer bobble head, maybe I can help out. I should reply you later, sending to you by email.
