About Stacy Caldwell

As a promotional consultant at HALO, the first promotional products company to reach $1 billion in sales, I help my clients find the right products to boost their brand awareness, attract new customers, and reward their loyal fans. I have been in this industry for over 20 years, and I have earned the trust and respect of both my clients and my supplier partners. My core competencies are relationship building, partnering, educating, sourcing, and marketing communications. I know how to listen to my clients\' needs, provide them with creative and customized solutions, and guide them through the whole process with ease and confidence. I also have a keen understanding of the university market, and I have been recognized as the regional sales rep of the year by the Promotional Products Association of the Mid-South (PPAMS). My clients often call me their friend, and I am proud to be their go-to person for all their promotional products needs.

   An Entire Career Devoted to Promotional Products• Ready to order 100,00 branded tire gauges?• Need recruitment packages? • Want 50k custom stress toys?If so, I’m your expert! I graduated from Middle Tennessee State University. I took my first career step directly into the promotional products field and I’ve never left. For the past 20+ years, I’ve transformed my business from cold calls into warm welcomes to a never-ending river of referrals. Clients know me for both my trademarked head of hair and my head brimming with innovative ideas, suggestions, and recommendations that keep brands front and center. “I’m only limited by your budget” is my mantra in sourcing:*Tradeshow Swag*Recruitment Gifts*Fulfillment Projects*Recognition Awards*Display MaterialsEarning a Specialty with Colleges and UniversitiesWhen I was a newly minted graduate, some of my first sales calls were to the local colleges and universities in the Volunteer State of Tennessee. I quickly learned that sourcing, ordering, and approving branded items was a lesson in the art of the details. Today, I am a Certified Advertising Specialist (CAS) and am so well-schooled in the industry that I know which vendors to tap for virtually every item in the promotional universe. If a proof doesn’t win a “A” from me, I don’t waste my clients’ time in sending it out; I recognize the value of efficiency. Big Clients with Even Bigger RequestsI’m privileged to collaborate with giant companies who are looking for uniforms, awards, and branded items that assist them in standing out from the sea of similarity. Clients demand attention to details that determine whether their welcome gifts arrive on time or 3 days too late. From Bridgestone Americas to Kubota and Middle TN State University to Mars, clients deserve my attention and focus.
