Fortunately, offering high-quality branded merchandise to your customers is an incredibly effective and inexpensive way to spread the word about your organization and foster brand loyalty at the same time. But which products and items will your current and future fans enjoy the most? And which ones are cheap enough to buy in bulk? Here at Grey Fox Pottery, we\u2019re committed to making the process of picking up branded merchandise affordable and fun. Today, we\u2019ll be discussing what you should and shouldn\u2019t put your logo on.<\/p>\n<p>To begin, let\u2019s review why increasing brand awareness is such an important part of growing your business.<\/p>\n<h2>The Importance of Brand Awareness<\/h2>\n<p>Put simply, you can\u2019t expand and acquire more business if no one knows about your brand. In order to make a favorable impression and convince potential customers to buy, they need to be aware of your company and what it stands for. Spreading brand awareness is also a key aspect of enhancing your overall brand equity and making an impact on social media outlets. Once again, branded merchandise is a great way to introduce people to your business without breaking the bank. However, you\u2019ll need to choose the right types of items to effectively reach prospective customers and convey your brand\u2019s values.<\/p>\n<h2>Find Merchandise That Your Fans Will Love<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-17943 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/westphal-orthopedics-e1484851616250.jpg 1936w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>First and foremost, we need to figure out which branded items your patrons will value and find useful. Your brand zealots (superfans) might like you enough to buy your branded bumper sticker, but significantly more people will be interested in merchandise that brings utility to the table. That\u2019s where things like T-shirts, hoodies, hats, water bottles, mugs and bags come in handy. Your fans need to buy clothing, drink containers and bags anyway, so, unlike purely decorative items, it will be much easier for them to justify spending their hard-earned cash on these items. And remember, it\u2019s always a good idea to put your money behind gear that buyers will publically display. A cool branded mug can leave an impression on a large number of people over the course of a year.<\/p>\n<h2>Find Merchandise That Fits Your Brand<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0325.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-18089\" src=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0325-300x258.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0325-300x258.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0325-500x430.jpg 500w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0325-768x660.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0325.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>To really shine and succeed in the merchandising scene, you should aspire to theme your branded products around the services that you provide. For example, brewery owners might invest in branded beer steins to pass out during promotions or public events. Every single time the steins are used, the owners will associate the experience of enjoying their tasty alcoholic beverages with the brewery and its drinks, compelling them to stop in again for another round. If the owner of this brand had invested in water bottles or office pens instead, they\u2019d be missing out on this invaluable merchandise synergy.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, we can\u2019t tell you which specialized items will fit your brand perfectly in this article. That\u2019s because the answer will depend heavily on what type of business you run and the services you offer. One potential strategy is to look at the gear that other brands in your industry give out for inspiration. Alternatively, you can play it safe for now and go with some of the utility items we listed above. Once you\u2019ve pulled in more money and thought more on the subject, you can look into other types of merchandise.<\/p>\n<h2>Find High-Quality Merchandise That\u2019s Affordable<\/h2>\n<p>If you want fans and new customers to associate your brand with quality and reliability, you can\u2019t settle for chintzy merchandise. It might be tempting to save cash by choosing a cheap and basic assortment of cups, clothing or coasters, but you\u2019ll quickly lose the trust and business of customers if you reward their loyalty and patronage with generic or shoddy items. Regrettably, many high-quality merchandise providers charge very high prices for each delivery and subject you to high minimum order limits, preventing you from experimenting with different styles. That\u2019s where Grey Fox Pottery shines.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0326.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-18090\" src=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0326-300x281.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0326-300x281.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0326-500x468.jpg 500w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0326-768x719.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greyfoxpottery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/IMG_0326.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Our business provides unique and beautiful branded stoneware coffee mugs for unbeatable prices.
