Custom USB Purpose
Before you jump into the customization process, it’s important to first consider what exactly you’ll be using your USB drives for. Are you looking to promote your business? Do you need them for data transfer? Answering these questions will help guide the type of USB drive you order, the design, memory capacity, and more.
Some of the purposes for which custom USB drives are used include:
- Trade shows and conferences
- Giveaways
- Video and photography
- Employee Appreciation
- New student or employee onboarding
- Promotion of your brand or business
- Celebrations
Custom Flash Drive Imprint Size
The size and messaging of your imprint are important because they will be seen every time the USB is used! Send us your logo or design and we’ll print it on the USB. You’ll need to consider the size available on the USB product you choose and make sure your design will fit and be easy to read, if there’s text, or to understand if it’s a drawing.
Many of our USBs have two imprint areas. You may want to use your logo on one side and include some information, such as a website, on the other. Just make sure the information is as evergreen as possible so it will last at least as long as the flash drive itself.
Custom Flash Drive Logos
There are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to designing a logo. You want to make sure that the color of your logo and the background color work well together, or that your logo stands out enough to be easily seen. This is especially important for people who are color blind.
Within the first 90 seconds of seeing your logo or other brand image, people will have already made judgments about your company subconsciously. 62-90% of their judgment is based solely on color, and 93% of people focus on color when purchasing a product. Therefore, it’s important to choose colors that will give people the right impression of your brand.
Submit your logo, design, or drawing
If you already have a design, great! Just send it in and we’ll use it on the USB flash drives of your choice. If you’re not sure what you want, no problem—our in-house design team can help you out.
