• Plan a budget for your promotional paperweight effort, and determine, based on that and the cost of the paperweights you plan to purchase, who should receive them. With a larger budget, you'll have more latitude in deciding the number of clients or prospects to include. But, if your budget is small, you may need to be more discriminating in creating your list of promotional paperweight recipients. In the latter case, choose your more active or larger-scale customers and your most promising prospects.
