PPAI Expo 2022

January 15, 2022

Behind Your Design's very own Chelsea Mills was invited to talk to PPAI Live during the expo - watch the video below:

The Behind Your Design Team had such a great experience at the 2022 Promotional Products Association International (PPAI) Expo. As well as meeting so many great new manufacturers we were excited to strengthen our relationships with many of the manufacturers we work with currently.


We are excited to be able to work directly with manufacturers and suppliers to be able to offer our clients unique and effective branded merchandise and promotional products to help boost their marketing to both current and new customers as well as employees.


Studies show that 85% of promo product recipients remember the advertiser. Behind Your Design can help you make branded merchandise a successful part of your marketing strategy for 2022 and beyond.

The Expo provided us with a great opportunity to meet with manufacturers and supplies to see and feel the newest branded merchandise items on sale as well as attending educational classes to provide us with marketing ideas to help our clients integrate branded merchandise and promotional products.

For some added excitement at the Expo Behind Your Design Owner, Chelsea Mills, was selected to appear on the PPAI Expo Live webcast to talk about our experience attending the show in 2020 and then again this year. You can view the video at the top of this page:

Finally, not trip to Las Vegas would be complete without having a little fun and the Behind Your Design Team certainly did that!  On Sunday, before the PPAI Expo began we explored the Strip and thoroughly enjoyed watching the water fountain show at the Bellagio (click here to learn more).


Then on Wednesday night we were thrilled to attend the first ever Promopalooza Party at Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders.  We loved touring the stadium, visiting the locker room and walking the field - what a unique experience.
