During these strange and extraordinary times, the promotional products industry is being tested. And it is clear that the industry will rebuild and grow beyond its peak revenues if its stakeholders become more open-sourced, share ideas, support one other and innovate. In that spirit, two volunteer-driven organizations, PromoKitchen and PromoCares, are banding together on their content strategy.

PromoKitchen’s mission is to elevate the promotional products industry through education and a Mentorship Program.

PromoCares mission is to inspire, educate and provide actionable strategies to encourage social and environmental responsibility in the promotional products industry and the industry’s communities.

So, be on the lookout for original content that will focus on subject matter such as collaboration, sustainability, innovation, responsible sourcing, advocacy, community impact, DEI, social and environmental responsibility. More importantly, join the conversation and these purpose-driven communities. These two organizations will be hosting quarterly podcasts together. PromoCares will be shifting their podcast efforts to Promokitchen and they will operate as the same unit in that arena.

Karie Cowden from PromoCares and President at Connect the Dots Promotions says “PromoCares Radio is quite excited to collaborate with PromoKitchen and the chefs.  The more education and sharing that we can do, the better the industry becomes!”  Johanna Gottlieb, Chair of PromoKitchen and VP of Sales at Axis powered by HALO says, "I am personally really excited about this podcast collaboration! I have always been a huge fan of the work that PromoCares is doing in our industry. I am excited to learn and grow with them and to share it with the industry.”
