Promotional Embroidered Products That Rock


By Phyllis Chapman

Promotional embroidered products are items or products given to the public, free of charge, to hopefully increase sales or promote interest in a product or a business. An example of some embroidered promotional products is:

• Embroidered caps and hats

• Embroidered backpacks

• Embroidered wool blankets

• Embroidered sports and tote bags

• Embroidered jackets and outerwear

• Embroidered golf and button down shirts

• Embroidered running shoes and sports clothes

There are several promotional products recognized universally that people collect as a hobby.

Corporations spend billions of dollars annually on promotional advertising. The Promotional Products Association International or PPAI has conducted surveys on the impact, influence and exposure these products have on people. Seventy six percent of people that received a promotional product remembered the advertisers name where only around fifty-three percent recalled a print publication advertiser name.

The promotional embroidered hats and caps are one of the most popular, convenient and effective ways to advertise. Companies embroider their name or logo on the hat, which is great promotional advertising for them as the customer is a type of walking billboard.

Some companies give embroidered ‘one size fits all’ hats away free with the purchase of one of their other products. Often the hats have an embroidered name on the front and the logo or web address on the back.

Promotional embroidered products are great as business-to-business promotions an also for introducing new services or products to clients. Several design companies specialize in developing advertising and promotional ideas and even though it may cost a little more, it very often is the difference between your getting the business instead of the other company.

From brushed-cotton twill hats to embroidered t-shirts, clothing and all the products in-between, this is a wonderful free way to advertise for years to come. Promotional embroidered products are the perfect way to broadcast your message.
