subject: Mix Business And Pleasure During The World Cup This Year! [print this page] The beauty of promotional merchandise is its adaptability to suit your needs and there can be no greater example of this than seeing how promotional products can be themed around social events, providing excellent opportunities for delivering your brand messages.
For example the England inflatable football clapper stick is available in red and white, has a good branding area, has had good exposure in the UK market and can be purchased from UK suppliers at strong prices. Or the promotional large foam finger, the old fashioned football rattle or the promotional fanfare horn which is being portrayed as the must have gadget at this years World Cup.
But its possible to also use the more standard promotional products. Currently available to support a World Cup themed promotion are 2010 shaped promotional keyrings, promotional nylon tour bags branded with the Union Jack, usb drives shaped as football kits and England branded promotional chocolate.
The trick is to also plan. Promotional merchandise can now be sourced just as effectively in the Far East as it can through UK suppliers, especially for the larger volumes. But you need to allow for the longer lead times or build in an additional allowance for air freight if you need them quickly.
Making the correct choice of themed promotional product can bring you exceptional quality, efficiency, innovation and exceptional value for money products. Whether you have a ''pence per product'' budget, or a more substantial sum for a high-end bespoke item, promotional merchandise has the adaptability in product and budget that todays businesses need.
