No matter what type of business you have, it is important to
promote it. Businesses with small budgets can use logo fish bowls, miniature
boxes, and
wood barrel displays for
branding. These displays might cost much less than billboards and flashy
magazine ads but they are very effective. They are also portable, allowing
entrepreneurs to take their branding on the road to trade shows and other
events.
Fish bowl containers hold between one quart and four gallons
of small products, candy, or promotional items. Made from acrylic, they come in
different styles including round, drum, and cookie jar. Personalizing one side
with the company name and logo makes these containers unique. Customers can
always see the contents but they will also notice the attractive single color
logo that advertises the company. Tinted fish bowls can also be personalized,
taking style up a notch with their many hues.
Miniature boxes come in three sizes and the company logo is
imprinted on the lid using a silk screening process. Color choices for the
five-inch square logo include red, green, blue, and black. Retailers use these
boxes to hold trinkets and other small products. When used at a conference or
trade show, the boxes make excellent containers for event gifts. Long after the
event is over, recipients will remember the company that sponsored the gifts.
Laser engraving can also be used to personalize these small
boxes. Use these containers to hold promotional items offered at the trade show
booth. They make excellent holders for small corporate holiday gifts like
watches or lapel pins. These boxes can even be used by hotels as containers for
wedding favors, promoting the venue as a place to hold an upcoming reception.
A wooden barrel has the capacity to hold loads of candy,
small accessories, books, CDs, or other items. A one-color logo silkscreened
onto the side gives these containers a customized appearance. Some styles
feature removable legs so retailers can create unique displays. Barrels can be
placed on the floor with the legs installed or displayed on a low shelf or
platform with legs removed.
Before redesigning or opening
a retail shop or heading off to a trade show, retailers should explore
these logoed displays. Imprinting the corporate logo on a fish bowl container,
mini box, or wooden barrel distinguishes the business and furthers branding
efforts. Shoppers will remember the business long after they make a purchase.
