The Benefits of Using Promotional Umbrellas to Market Your Business

Promotional umbrellas are one of the more traditional gifts used by companies to promote their businesses. Giving out branded company umbrellas is a simple, yet extremely effective, way of getting your name across. The beauty of these products is, however, that you don’t just target the customer to whom you give the umbrella. They’ll then go on to spread your branding message for you without realising that they are promoting your business.

Let’s say you print up a range of promotional golf umbrellas with your company name and logo and give them out to selected customers and prospects. Each time an individual uses their umbrella, whether they are on or off the golf course, they’ll register your name/branding themselves. Plus, anyone that sees them will see the umbrella too so your message could spread much further with little effort on your part.

Promotional Umbrellas Are Often Valued Gifts

Nobody actually much likes having to buy an umbrella. They need one if it rains (or to use as a sun shelter in some cases!) but buying one is often a chore rather than a pleasure. Give promotional umbrellas out as gifts, therefore, and you take away the need to pay for one. The gift you give is much more likely to get used, over and over again. And, as we’ve already mentioned, every time it rains, your umbrella is carried around promoting your company for you.

Types of Branded Company Umbrellas

Although companies in the past may have tended to focus solely on giving out promotional golf umbrellas, the Red Fish Marketing range actually gives you a broader range of options. For example, you could have your branding/message added to:

• Classic and corporate umbrellas.
• Executive folding umbrellas.
• Micro umbrellas with cases.
• Umbrellas with built in LED flashlights.
• Promotional golf umbrellas.

This gives you a lot of scope to offer something different to your customers according to your budget. Bear in mind that many of your female customers, for example, may be happier carrying around a folding umbrella or a micro option rather than having to deal with a larger golf umbrella.

Quality Matters With Promotional Umbrellas

We’ve all had bad experiences with umbrellas. Buy a cheap, bargain product and you may feel good that you saved some money. But, you won’t feel so good in the middle of a heavy shower when your umbrella collapses or falls apart.

At Red Fish Marketing we offer high-quality, yet affordable, promotional umbrellas that look good and that are made to last. The worst thing a business can do is to give out a low quality product that doesn’t stand the test of time. The promotional umbrellas you give out really do represent your business. Give a high quality gift that does the job it is supposed to for a long period of time and your business will look as good as the umbrella does!
