Here are some tips to consider when creating or deciding what promotional product will be best for your brand.

  1. You want to make sure that your consumers are aware of the promotion. This can be done through advertisements, word of mouth, or social media.
  2. You want the promotional piece to cost worthy for your consumers. Most consumers will be willing to participate in the promotion if it means getting a free product or an amount off their purchase/next purchase.
  3. You want the promotional piece to stand out. If you choose to do a peal and reveal or coupon that will be adhered to your product you don’t want it to blend in too much to your packaging design because then it may be over looked or not noticed by consumers.
  4. You want to make sure to include all the information the consumer needs to know of either the advertising for the promotional piece or on the promotional piece itself to ensure there will not be any confusion. This information could include an expiration date, date when the piece can be redeemed/used, or a website you can visit for more information/rules.
