The British summertime is a notoriously fickle beast - one moment it's pouring with rain, the next it's 35C and the humidity is so intense you wonder, for the briefest of flashes, if your office has been converted into a greenhouse overnight...
(Don't worry, it hasn't. The air-con has just been turned off again.)
Anyway! Whilst the heat might feel too hot to handle, there are items you can offer your customers to make things a little more tolerable. Help them cool down and keep your branding at the centre of their seasonal comfort? Genius!
What Sort Of Items Will Make Great Promotional Giveaways This Summer?
When choosing the perfect promotional merchandise items for your summer-themed marketing efforts, it can pay to factor in a variety of factors, beyond the obvious of budget, quantity and purpose.
Consider, for example, if there are any nationwide or global sporting events taking place that might capture the attention and minds of your audience, and which you could link your business to; also factor-in the kinds of activities your target customer will be indulging in.
How Quickly Can Our Summer-Themed Promotional Products Be Delivered?
With the season already in full swing, you might think you've missed your opportunity to invest in summer merchandise for your customers. Think again!
Total Merchandise's fast-turnaround range of products means your hot-hot-hot promotional products can be with you a lot sooner than you might have initially thought. In fact, some items can be dispatched for delivery in just two working days - meaning your promotional products could, in theory, be with you by the end of the week.
What Kind Of Campaign Or Business Can Benefit From Offering Summer-Inspired Merchandise?
Whilst a summer-focused campaign might not seem like the most obvious of routes to take for some businesses, you might be surprised by the flexibility of the theme.
- For a general option that can suit anyone, consider the sorts of items that can make staying safe and comfortable in the sun a proverbial breeze: skincare, promotional caps and so on
- If your target customer is a school-aged child, for example, it can pay to link your merch campaign with the summer holidays: think garden games or novelty toys that can be played with
- Similarly, if your key audience comprises of professionals, items that can make their commutes a little less heated could be highly beneficial (unless, of course, they follow the lead of this chap and decide to swim to work 🏊)
In short, giving consideration to your customer and what they're likely to be doing can help you choose promotional products that feel tailored to them and have a greater likelihood of being used on a regular basis.
