"If you're reading this to assist you in making a vendor decision, look no further. I have used Mango Bay Promotions since 2002 and carried them with me through two career changes since then. Vases, champagne flutes, letter openers, magnet clips, CD holders, beach towels, blankets, jackets and custom mugs are only some of the items I have ordered. I have yet to find a company that can compete with Mango Bay - on price or quality. From idea conception to delivery they consistently perform with positive results. I've ordered $1 items to $100 items and quantities of 15 to 1500; each time, I receive accolades for how wonderful a product I deliver. And I don't do the work! Mango Bay makes it easy. We have even created custom items that were produced overseas; nothing is out of their reach.
Trust = competence + integrity. Only Mango Bay will pass along savings, search for the best shipping deals, and consistently challenge prices as if they were spending their own limited funds. There is no buyer's remorse with Mango Bay. Every order I place is made with complete trust and they've never let me down."

"I work for a small municipal recreation department. We have used Mango Bay Promotions for awards and promotional items for about five years. The level of customer service is incredible. Vivienne has worked with us to provide quality items that always fit our budget. She always responds immediately to our inquiries and provides several alternatives. Items are always received on time or ahead of the agreed time."

"Mango Bay Promotions provides great customer service at competitive prices! I like using them because I know I can trust that they will deliver quality products quickly.

"We have placed 8 orders with Viv at Mango Bay over the 2 years that we have worked with her. She came highly recommended and I would highly recommend her. Our program has been very impressed with the speed at which we get the shipments as well as the quality of the products. She really helped make our participation in the Merrie Monarch Parade a success. Mahalo!"

"We opened up our education center in 2006. Since then, we've placed several orders for a variety of different marketing products with Mango Bay. Viv has helped us to effectively promote NHERC at an affordable price. She offers excellent customer service at prices that can't be beat. I enjoy working with Vivienne and highly recommend Mango Bay Promotions for anyone with promotional needs. Whatever your promotional needs are, Viv can help you find something that fits your budget!"

"Our office needed a number of high quality plaques in a short time period, and I thought of Mango Bay. Vivienne immediately put me at ease, with excellent service and a great price. Mango Bay provided the materials in a timely way, and we were very happy with the quality of the work. But more than that, Vivienne provided that extra dimension of customer care and added trust to the project, a level that other companies I've worked with don't reach. If you want high quality, great price, and more than just business as usual, I recommend Mango Bay."

"I've been working with Mango Bay Promotions since 2006. They are creative, innovative and tremendously responsive. The most important aspect of their service ideal is to work within my budget. They also are vigilant in making sure that our brand is protected and went out of their way to take action when a supplier pirated our logo and immediately sent a cease and desist.
Mango Bay is always my first call or email when I need promotional items."

"Mango Bay Promotions was a savior to me during my event coordination last year! It was the first time our organization had ever put on such a fundraiser as a 5K Run/walk and we needed help! Mango Bay Promotions not only offered me a great price, but also helped me through the entire process of ordering medals and awards for the runners. They helped me decide how many I would need and how to order them in so that I would not have to re-order unnecessary parts and pieces if I ended up needing more materials. They also created darling artwork inclusive of our logo and slogan. All our medals looked amazing and the ribbons are sturdy and brightly colored.
They are efficient and professional. I have already contacted Mango Bay Promotions again for this year's event which takes place this fall. They have kept all of our info on file and have already provided me with a quote and the artwork. I was able to maintain a great relationship with the company and staff and I am excited to work with them on a continual basis."

"I consider Vivienne to be an extension of our marketing department, since she has helped Soft Gel Technologies, Inc. coordinate our promotional efforts for the past nine years. I have been with the company for five years, and have been extremely impressed with the outstanding service Vivienne continues to provide year after year.
Vivienne's company, Mango Bay Promotions, was launched in September 2000 in Los Angeles, where our company is based. The company moved to Hawaii in 2003 and then to Denver in 2008, but Vivienne made the transition seamless to her customers. Her resilience through two big moves speaks volumes of her tenacity and flexibility. As I mentioned previously, Soft Gel Technologies, Inc. was one of Mango Bay's very first clients. All of our holiday gifts and cards are purchased through Mango Bay, and Vivienne has been instrumental in helping us select appropriate and thoughtful items we can have personalized. We continue to use her company exclusively, because she is reliable, organized and pays attention to details. She is also diligent in sourcing our gifts to help us save money. I know that once I place an order, everything will be correct and arrive on time. It is refreshing to have a business relationship with someone who is conscientious and friendly. I look forward to calling Vivienne, because you can hear the smile in her voice and her laugh is infectious.
Vivienne has also assisted us with promotional items for our major trade shows. Two years ago, we launched a new branded dietary supplement that we manufacture using translucent soft gelatin capsules. We wanted to promote this product at one of our largest trade shows, and Vivienne developed a unique and creative way for us to showcase the softgels. She recommended a company that manufactures postcards with clear "promodomes" in which the capsules could be displayed. She took charge of the project from concept to completion, and it turned out to be a very successful promotion for us. We generated numerous new leads at the show, which made it a worthwhile investment for us.
I can attest to Vivienne's professionalism, excellent communication skills, and her orientation towards making customer satisfaction a high priority."

"I own an event production and promotional business titled W2 Promotions (www.w2promo.com). We produce runs and walks to raise funds for various charities.
I met Vivienne about 10 years ago when she lived in Los Angeles and was training with the LA Leggers training group. She had just started her promotional items business and we gave her a shot at providing medals for a run.
Since then, I use Vivienne for most of my events and have recommended her to many of my clients.
I am also an employee of the Metropolitan Los Angeles YMCA. We use Vivienne's company for our promotional materials to promote our "Think Safety First" message. Many of our YMCAs in our YMCA Association now use her for their promotional materials, too.
The difference that I have found in using Vivienne as a supplier is not that her company has products that other advertising companies do not, but that Vivienne goes the extra steps to be sure we get what we want and at a good price. Many times I have told her that "we are not sure what we want to give away, but this is the theme of a particular meeting." She always comes back to us with samples and prices that are winners.
Vivienne puts her clients first and makes sure we are happy with the items and quality, plus the delivery in a timely manner.
I highly recommend Vivienne."
