Getting a nice little printed notebook as a promotional gift from our go-to brand? Yes, that sounds like a wonderful event. How about buying a sweet set of customised pens or a nice pair of branded earbuds? Why, those would definitely do. But what about a gift that’s a bit more forward-thinking? What of gifts that kind of break the mould and prove that there’s always a bit of creativity among people eager to market their products or services?
Well, that’s where promotional bottle openers enter the picture. In this article, we will go over some of the key reasons behind the decision to order a batch of promotional bottle openers. Every brand, be it in the beverage industry or not, can benefit from these tiny tools, and here’s precisely why.
Practicality
Some people like their beer or soda in a tin can, and that’s perfectly fine. Others insist on plastic bottles, or even cardboard packaging. But if we have clients that like a bit of old-fashioned drinking from nice, cool glass tankard, we will need something to help them open the bottles up.
A bottle opener will do wonders for any occasion. It can be construction workers enjoying a break after long hours of laying concrete. Alternatively, it might be a couple celebrating their anniversary, or a father popping some sodas for his kids during his daughter’s birthday. Whatever it may be, neat little openers will do the trick, and they’ll do it quickly.
And speaking of neat and little…
Minimality
Most bottle openers such as the Arc Engraved Keychain Bottle Openers are barely big enough to fit the palms of our hands. In fact, some can be as small as our index fingers. But why would we list being small as a virtue of a promotional item? Isn’t size everything? Well, we will get to promotion and size in a few paragraphs, but for now, let’s focus on why minimal size matters.
When we have somewhere to be, a place to visit or an area to travel to, we need to come fully equipped. We might be enjoying that company picnic and that colleague’s birthday even more if we have the right tool to open that stubborn soda bottle. It will save us the trouble of using a lever system to yank the cap off with our lighter or keys.
Eco-Mentality
Most bottle openers are made out of sturdy materials, such as hard plastic and stainless steel. Now, neither of those two elements sounds particularly biodegradable, but it really doesn’t need to be. What’s important is that each and every opener is sturdy and hard enough to last us for years. As such, it’s less likely to end up in a landfill than a plastic bottle or a cardboard package. One opener, carefully used, can service as many as three generations of a single family.
Frugality
Unlike certain promotional item ideas out there, getting bottle openers is relatively inexpensive. Let’s look at it from an economist’s perspective for a moment:
- It’s a small item with a fairly simple design that’s easy to mass-produce
- The item doesn’t require a lot of printing or embossing due to its size
- It doesn’t require batteries, assembly, or anything else that would make it expensive
- It serves a purpose that will make it far more reusable than most promo item options on the market.
With all of that in mind, it’s no wonder why so many brands out there opt for bottle openers as their go-to promo merch. In fact, more and more small businesses and start-ups actually go for this particular item. And if we can save a little money and still make the most of our brand marketing campaign, why not seize the moment?
Exceptionality
Bottle openers come in many shapes and sizes, and we can either sell them solo or pair them up with other items. For example, there are intricate Swiss army knife-like openers like the Spartan Swiss Army Pocket Knife that contain several items in one (ex., corkscrews).
Moreover, if we approach the design well, we can incorporate our company name and message in such a way that the user of these openers will never forget. And no, the size of the item will not affect a clever marketing campaign.
