Promotional Mugs with attitude

Mugs aren't just for drinking out of these days! They are commonly used as a key marketing tool.

If you're going to invest in promotional mugs for your marketing campaign you need to understand the benefits they have first, to ensure you can use them to their full potential.

Branded Mugs Don't Necessarily Need To Be Used For Drinking

Thinking outside of the box a little, branded mugs don't need to be used just for drinking out of:

  • Promotional mugs work very nicely as paperweights, but remember to ensure the bottom of the mug is not wet first.
  • They also work nicely as pen and stationery holders. This way they can stay in full view on desks 24/7!
  • They can too be used as decoration. Make sure you mug colour matches the room you intend to decorate and 'hey presto' you have yourself a cheap, original ornament (that is also useful too).
  • Finally, promotional mugs can be used to warm up hands in the colder months - just place a nice hot drink inside and hug with your hands. 

Of course, you could always use your promotional mug as it was intended, to hold your favourite hot or cold beverage. When it comes to marketing, businesses use promotional mugs with the aim to increase brands awareness. Just ensure your brand name, logo and/or message is printed on the mug and hand out as many as possible.

Different Types Of Promotional Mugs:

Promotional mugs don't have to be 'bog standard' and boring - remember the things that don't interest you probably won't interest your clients or potential customers either. If you think outside of the box and ensure your design is creative and targeted to your audience then you'll be sure to see a boost in your brand awareness.
