Everyone loves a gift – and everyone enjoys a good cup of tea or a lovely cup of freshly made coffee … and your clients or visitors are no different. If you are a business, you will be looking to attract as many clients or customers possible, and branded gifts are a lasting advertisement for you company. Even if your visitor is not a prospective client, you will be hoping that they may well remember to mention your name to other people that they meet. Businesses are always looking for ways to remind their clients to get in touch and to put themselves on the map with as many people as they can think of and what better way to create a reminder than to get tea and coffee cups from a Mug Store printed with their logo or message. This can be a good idea for the following reasons,
Creates a lasting memory
Your printed mug can fix your name into the mind of the person for whom you make a coffee or tea. They will be looking at your company name or logo for the entire duration of their drink and they are more likely to remember you, especially if the mug that they have been drinking from has come in a striking colour or with a striking design. The brain enjoys colour and design and will remember that easily, it is important that you use that fact to create an interesting and memorable design on your mug.
Gifts and giveaways
Promotional mugs can be used as giveaways. They can be a great present for your clients or prospective clients at various points of the year, holiday times, Christmas and it may even be worth delivering a set of 6 to your valued clients to keep yourself in there as a reminder of who to contact. If the mug is presented well and is of good quality, they are more likely to make use of it, so take time with the design, colour, presentation and quality. A set of mugs can be a useful addition if you are planning on attending any networking events or events where you will be making a presentation. By offering tea and coffee, you are also offering a part of your company. You want to have a few lying around that can be used as giveaways.
There are a variety of options available when it comes to having your promotional mug designed and it is important for you to consider what options would best fit the image that you are trying to create, is it fun and funky or more serious and determined. Colour and design speak volumes without us necessarily realising it. Cost is a factor and you want to hit the right balance, you could perhaps decide to go for more than one style of mug and use the cheaper ones for certain types of promotion and the more expensive ones for another type of promotion. If you are hoping that someone is going to be using your mug on a daily basis, you may want to make sure that it feels good to hold and drink from and you may also want to make sure that it is dishwasher safe.
