Promotional coffee mugs are an effective promo item that any business should continue using in their marketing efforts. In the US, we drink 3.2 cups of coffee on average every day. Forget wasteful paper cups and treat your customers and staff to a reusable mug. Personalized coffee mugs are an ideal gift to supplement your promotional efforts, as they’re sure to receive daily use.
In addition, they tie your business name to that one, necessary beverage that provides both comfort and caffeine to help get them through the day. Get in touch with a Brand Consultant from ePromos for help selecting and designing a promotional coffee mug your clients are sure to love!
How Promotional Coffee Mugs Can Benefit Your Business
No doubt, a custom coffee mug is as traditional as a promotional marketing tool can get. In fact, logo mugs are consistently in the top five promo items ordered every year. They have a strong foundation in the world of promotional products because they are practical, memorable, useful, affordable, and seen every single day. Use your branding on promotional coffee cups to create a long-lasting impression for your business at a low cost.
With a variety of sizes and colors, it’s easy to customize coffee cups that will be noticed and are unique to your brand. Classic ceramic mugs are always a favorite, but there are several other styles like tall mugs, campfire mugs, travel mugs and other shapes that will look great sporting your logo. Speaking of logos, there are different printing methods that will cause your branding to shine. Screen-printing is the standard that usually does the trick, but if you want a little more, having your logo printed in full color gives it a better chance at getting noticed. Laser engraved coffee mugs are another trend that offers a premium look as well.
How Many Coffee Mugs Should I Buy?
If you're purchasing imprinted ceramic coffee mugs as gifts for employees or treats for your top customers, you likely know the quantity of custom promotional coffee mugs you need. However, if you plan to hand out promotional ceramic coffee mugs at your next trade show or community event, the answer is less straightforward. We've come up with a few guidelines for our partners' most common promotional events:
- Large trade shows: For trade shows and conventions catering to over 1,000 people, aim to have products for around 25% of the expected attendees.
- Small trade shows: At smaller events, more people will have the opportunity to explore the entire venue, meaning you'll likely get more traffic. In this case, try to have products for around 75% of the attendees.
- Community events: If you're working with volunteers for a local fair or sports tournament, ensure you have enough promotional products for each volunteer and participant.
We also suggest ordering a few extras even if you're purchasing gifts for a set amount of people. If your budget allows it, add about 25% of your original order quantity to your order. This buffer will help cover you if you find you've miscounted or had any last-minute additions. Plus, any extra items will make great gifts for new hires or important customers down the road.
