Why Promotional T shirts?
The simple answer to that question is, of course, visibility.
Promotional T shirts turn people into your own corporate billboards. T shirts can potentially turn your customers into a horde of living advertisements in their own right.
Not only do promotional T shirts give your business and brand great exposure, they also make you look good in the eyes of the customers who receive them.
Another good reason to use promotional T shirts is that they’re relatively cheap. You can purchase bulk quantities of printed shirts at near-wholesale prices, effectively giving you a very inexpensive form of mass marketing that, depending on the quality of the materials, could continue working for you for a long time after the initial investment.
When To Give Promotional T shirts
There are a great many opportunities to give out your branded promotional T shirts.
You could give them away with other products purchased, as part of a promotional campaign. People love getting free stuff, and this tactic will serve the dual purpose of providing extra incentive to buy your products, while increasing your brand’s exposure when people wear the T shirts – and people will wear them, after all, getting something for free is always better if you actually put it to use.
Promotional T shirts could also be given away at an event. Perhaps you could have promotions people giving away your branded clothing at the entrance to a big show your company has organised. We see this sort of thing all the time at music events, and the effectiveness of the strategy is clearly evident. A custom-designed t shirt, with attractive artwork will be worn as something of a status symbol, almost saying, “look at me, I was there.”
For more ideas on how to put promotional T shirts to good use, you should approach the company who is printing the apparel for you. More than likely they will be able to offer a great deal of good advice, based on their experience in the industry.
When Promotional T shirts Are More Than Just Promotional T shirts
While giving away inexpensive screen printed promotional T shirts is a great way to build brand awareness and reach out to your public, your front line staff should also wear clothing that identifies them as being a part of your brand. The difference is in the kind of statement the different T shirts make.
Your staff’s clothes should make a statement about the style of your brand. The shirts should be of high quality and instill trust in your public.
Your front line staff should sport T shirts that are made of high-quality cotton, with embroidered, rather than printed, logos. A good tip is also to use golf T shirts; a collared shirt immediately gives people a good first impression of the class of company they are dealing with.
