Why Choose Us

Because the first impression you make is nice,

      but your lasting impression is essential

Maybe it’s a sales call or a trade show.  It could be a convention or the company picnic.  A way to boost company spirit or to make that special occasion extra special. Or maybe it’s just been too long since you let your clients know how much you appreciate their business. Whatever the reason, we know we can find the perfect way to make sure they remember you.

It’s creativity that truly sets us apart.

We consider creativity to be our greatest asset. So much so that we even put it in our name.  It means you can count on a “wow” factor in every job we do for you.

Here’s what you can expect from us: 

• Creativity in finding the right product to put your logo on, whether it’s unique and innovative, hard to find, or simply tried and true.

   

• Creativity in stretching your budget, through tough vendor negotiation or sourcing products made in the USA or from around the world.

   

• Creativity in fabricating customized products.

   

• Creativity in meeting impossible deadlines.

   

• Creativity in adding value to your brand or occasion.

Or to put it another way, there’s no wall we won’t run through to get you what you need, when you need it, and at a fair price.

We think that’s a real good reason for choosing us for all your branded merchandise and promotional products.

Who We Are

Elaine Bennett   President

Dynamic, exuberant, passionate, energetic.  These are only some of the calmer words that describe Elaine.  She’s the heart of JEMS and the force behind everything good that happens.  Need that special item yesterday.  No problem.  Looking for that unique product your client has never seen before. Piece of cake.  Want something made in China, ship and clear customs with no hassles.  Give her something challenging to do.  The factory is out of stock.  We’ll open the factory.

We may be exaggerating a little bit, but you get the idea.  Elaine prides herself in getting the job done. No obstacles.  No excuses.

Elaine developed her skills working first for a leading cosmetics company and then for one of the world’s most iconic magazine publishers as his Promotions Director. After these stints, the rest is easy.  Need proof.  Give her a call.

Steve Bennett  CEO

After serving as President/CEO of a prestigious mid-sized advertising agency and a senior executive at a major international agency serving clients around the world, Steve brings extensive experience in branding, creative strategies and tactical programs that have enhanced the value of the brands he’s been associated with.

He has served his clients in a variety of industries including banking, real estate, travel and tourism, healthcare, retail, apparel, and franchising, among others. 

He started JEMS Creative Promotions with his partner Elaine upon seeing the real value of promotional items in the market place.  In an environment that bombards us with ads, he believes that promotional products are the one advertising medium that customers remember best.

Steve believes that this is a great time to be in the promotional products business. Especially when marketing budgets are tight, it’s the most efficient way to deliver your message and put a smile on your customer’s face at the same time.
