Nothing is harder than promoting your business to make it scale and reach its full potential. There is a conscious decision that every business owner not only has to make but to also keep. It is a necessary evil to have to market your business or product. Most people carry easily accessible cards with them to hand out. That’s a perfectly valid way to advertise of course, but very rarely does it actually make a company stand out. More rarely, businesses use water bottles, but at any public event, they can be perfect for getting your company’s name out there.
Business Events
Often in business conferences, where CEOs are encouraged to chat, negotiate and ultimately make deals, you’ll get handed a couple of dozen business cards. One or two might catch your eye, but the vast majority will just find themselves in a wallet in a couple of months time, completely ignored and forgotten about. On the other hand, consider a company that gives interested parties a water bottle, for them to use both at the event and afterward. Water bottles are significantly harder to just put in a wallet and forget about. Even in a cupboard, your branding is taking physical space, almost demanding attention. This will transfer into brand awareness, interest in your company, and ultimately, more orders.
Public Events
Public events, like fairs and carnivals, are the perfect opportunities to get your brand out to the general public. Whether you’re providing samples of your products or just being there to get your name out, everyone loves a freebie. That’s why, if you show up to a Fair or community event with samples, and especially water bottles, you’ll build a significant amount of goodwill in the local community. People will associate your company with not only your branding (which they’ll pick up from the bottles) but also a community spirit. You’ve given these potential customers a product for nothing, and they’ll thank you for it with brand loyalty, and even greater revenues.
