Everyone always likes complimentary giveaways of just about any type. Anyone would be excited to see that someone is giving away free coffee cups. Your display will be king as all your clients and potential clients tell other clients where they got the coffee cups that they’re carrying around, using them to hold all the other junk they got from the other guys. Who wants a key ring or a pen when they can get a coffee cup instead?
Why Coffee Cups Are Better
Remember trick or treating on Halloween? Well, liken the little orange and black candies that had no name to key rings and calenders. Coffee cups…those would be candy bars. The good stuff. Remember all the kids telling the other kids where to get the good stuff? Like candy, size is everything. It’s impossible to ignore something as big as a coffee cup, especially in comparison to the little flimsy pieces of plastic that are usually given away as promotional gifts. People use coffee cups all year around, too. They drink coffee from summer to winter, and they always need something to put it in. Calenders have a tendency to vanish once the client finds one he likes better.
Use Coffee Cups As Gifts
During the Christmas season, coffee cups make especially good promotional gifts. Consider; coming in from a cold winter’s night to a hot cup of coffee in a coffee mug with your company’s logo on it. They’re easy to pack and ship and, unlike shirts or other clothing with your company logo, coffee cups are one size fits all. Give someone a shirt that’s too big, or even one that’s too small, and you’ll be wishing you went with the coffee cups.
Choosing Coffee Cups
What should you put on those coffee mugs, though? Just the logo, or something fancier and more involved? The first thing you want to think about is the type of material you’re going to use.
Different Coffee Cup Materials
There’s lots of materials to choose from, such as plastics, metals, porcelain, or even crockery. Consider that the end product really should reflect your business’s purpose. Metal would be a good idea if your company exudes power. For example, a company named SERIOUS BUSINESS would look good on metal coffee cups. A company named Lacy’s Pretty Things…not so much. Lacy would probably be happier with ceramic, which provides a much more affectionate and personal look. Ceramic coffee cups tend to really appeal to mothers and other matronly types since ceramic is used in arts and crafts. Plastic cups will tell everyone that your business is available to all walks of life, even those who aren’t well off.
