Promotional Picnic Blanket

Promotional Picnic Blanket

When marketing departments discuss what type of promotion they can invest in that will yield great result you rarely hear of them selecting a Promotional Picnic Blanket.  Why is that?  Well, most marketing departments for large companies want to be able to directly relate revenue to their promotion.  i.e. “We’ve sent out 10,000 letters that cost us $5,000 and that resulted in $8,000 in sales”

This type of thinking is main stream and practiced in companies across the United States every day.  And, there is nothing wrong with it.

However, if you want to wow your customers and have a promotion that lasts a lifetime, then you should consider giving away a Promotional Picnic Blanket. 

I know, you are thinking, that’s a leap.  Should I send a marketing letter than costs $1.00 or should I give away a $25.00 blanket?  I think 10 out of 10 companies will pick the letter every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

But here is the thing, there are a select group of your customers and/or prospects that need a wow factor to be impressed.  The shelf life of that $1.00 letter is about 15 seconds.  But when was the last time you threw away a nice blanket?

The Promotional Picnic Blanket can truly be a life long keepsake, and who doesn’t need a spare blanket laying around the house?  Now picture that Promotional Picnic Blanket with your company logo on it, sticking around for 30, 40, 50 years.  Possibly even being handed down to another generation.

Is a Promotional Picnic Blanket the right solution for every customer and every company?  Of course not, but can it be a major marketing tool over the course of decades?  Imagine having 5,000 or 10,000 Promotional Picnic Blankets out there being used and seen by many people over and over again, never being discarded. 

Are you starting to see the picture?

Dye Sublimation Printing Services

It is important to note that when searching for a Dye Sublimation Printing Services partner that you are aware of the two very different and distinct approaches to custom dye sublimation.

The traditional approach to Dye Sublimation Printing Services is to enter a cut and sew environment where fabric panels are cut, dye sublimated and then sewn together into the final product.  The advantages of this method  include a true 360 degree print, no printing issues near the seams and an amazing almost perfect look and feel.  The downside to this method are the high costs, long turn around times and large minimum order requirements, especially for custom gear.

The newest method of Dye Sublimation Printing Services involves already sewn items.  T-Shirts, Pillow Cases, Hoodies etc … that have already been sewn together can be custom dye sublimated.  As long as the item being decorated can be reasonably flattened, you can sublimate on it.  The upside to this method includes: Very fast turn around time (days vs months), reasonably good results, lower costs and low minimum orders.  The down side is that no garment that has already been sewn together can be placed completely flat for the Dye Sublimation Printing Services process.  As a result, inevitable creasing will occur, and when this happens, there will be blank spots where sublimation dyes can not reach.  These spots typically occur under the arms, near the seams and the shoulder lines.  Using the proper artwork, post sewn garments can look amazing and rival cut and sew sublimation.
