How Auto Dealers & Repair Shops Use Promotional Products
At the Point of Sale
A license plate frame installed on every car sold is unique among promotional products: it's placed on the customer's vehicle immediately, with no extra step required, and stays there for years, advertising to every driver behind it.
At Service Check-In
Repair shops hand out ice scrapers, tire gauges, and pens at the service counter — small, practical items that keep the shop's name in the glovebox for the next oil change or repair.
Seasonally
Ice scrapers make an effective fall giveaway in cold-weather markets, timed to arrive right as customers start needing them — a practical reason to reach out to past customers before winter.
For Referral & Fleet Relationships
Contractors, delivery services, and other businesses with vehicle fleets are valuable repeat accounts for a repair shop. A branded tire gauge or auto accessory kept in the shop is a small, practical way to stay visible with fleet managers who send repeat business.
Frequently Asked Questions: Auto Dealer & Repair Shop Promotional Products
Common questions from dealerships and repair shops ordering promotional products for the first time or reordering.
The signature item for a car dealership is the license plate frame — it goes on every car sold and turns each customer's vehicle into a rolling advertisement for years. Dealerships also commonly give ice scrapers, auto accessories like tire gauges and funnels, and branded pens at the sales desk. Repair shops and auto shops use the same core items, often paired with a magnetic calendar or fridge magnet so the shop's number is easy to find at the next service.
Yes. Every license plate frame is fully customizable with your dealership or shop name, logo, phone number, and website. Artwork setup, digital proof, and revisions are free of charge — our in-house art team handles everything before anything goes to production.
Most license plate frames have a 200-250 unit minimum, which is roughly a quarter to half a year of inventory for a dealership selling 20-40 cars per month. Larger dealership groups and multi-location shops typically order 1,000+ at a time for volume pricing. Reorders have no setup charge, making it easy to keep frames in stock as inventory turns over.
At 250 units, the License Plate Insert (#4049) totals about $237 — that includes the imprint, a one-time setup charge, and standard shipping. There are no hidden fees. The instant quote tool on every product page shows your full delivered cost before you order. Reorders cost less because the setup charge is waived on repeat orders.
Standard production for license plate frames, ice scrapers, and auto accessories is 5-7 business days after proof approval, with a few specialty items (like mini license plates and tire gauges) at 10 days. Rush delivery is available if you need product faster. You are not charged until you approve your digital proof.
Ice scrapers are most effective in cold-weather markets, but auto accessories like tire gauges, funnels, and shammy towels work year-round and in any climate. Most dealerships in seasonal markets order ice scrapers as a fall giveaway and keep license plate frames and pens in stock year-round.
Yes. The one-time setup charge is waived on all reorders, which typically saves 20-25% compared to the original order. Reorders can be placed by phone (888-926-6385) or email using your previously approved artwork, with no expiration on artwork on file.
Gimmees.com sells to independent used car lots and single-bay repair shops as well as multi-location new car dealership groups. There is no minimum account size requirement. Order minimums are set per product, not per account, ranging from 100 units on some auto accessories up to 500 on select items — so a small lot can order just as easily as a large dealer group.

Promotional Products for Auto Dealers & Repair Shops — Buyer’s Guide
No promotional product is placed on the customer's property as automatically or as visibly as a license plate frame. Every car a dealership sells drives away wearing the dealer's name, seen by every car that follows it, every day, for as long as the frame stays on. That built-in distribution is what makes license plate frames one of the highest cost-per-impression values in advertising — a few dollars per customer for years of continuous exposure. Repair shops get similar mileage from ice scrapers and auto accessories: practical items that live in the glovebox and get pulled out at exactly the moments a customer might need a mechanic.
