      Account Specialist, Promotional Products & Premiums

      Home Run Consultants (HRC) distinguishes itself from other ASI distributors because we primarily act as a supplier in the majority of our transactions, facilitating the bulk of our business overseas. We can also actually create products that previously didn't even exist...except maybe as an idea in someone's imagination!!The owner of HRC recently acquired the patent for "Strike" - an illuminated band/"bracelet" (two style models) that light up a company logo (or copy) when customizing the band - unlike the other bands that exist in the marketplace, which merely present the customer's brand in a "reverse". We also are able to price our bands based on the typical "quantity pricing" model, but because we can produce the bracelets both domestically, as well as overseas, we clearly have the advantage of pricing based on production time available. The more time we have to produce the bands, the lower the price when they are produced (as well as branded, or co-branded) overseas! Show less
