It’s no secret that the “going green” trend has been rising in popularity for years. The sad truth is that as our environment continues to deteriorate, it’s becoming a trend everyone needs to join with more urgency. As consumers become more socially and environmentally conscious, businesses must follow suit. Studies show that 70% of consumers in the U.S. and Canada believe it is important for a brand to be sustainable or eco-friendly. Implementing eco-friendly promotional products into your marketing strategy is a perfect first step towards making a difference, increasing your company’s brand awareness, and building positive brand associations with your customers. Keep reading to learn more about why you should use eco-friendly promotional products, and how the Thread Logic team can help get you started.
Do promotional products work?
In the 21st century, promotional products are an incredibly effective marketing tool used to build brand awareness and create a physical relationship between the business and the customer. Whether it’s a t-shirt, baseball hat, or tote bag, promotional products ensure that the customer has a memorable experience and positive association with the company.
In short, promotional products do work! A study conducted by Identity Works showed that 71% of tradeshow attendees remembered the name of the company that handed out a promotional product. 76% of those attendees had a favorable attitude towards that company. If it means increasing brand awareness and positive brand associations, why not give promotional products a shot?
What are Sustainable Promotional Products?
A promotional product is sustainable if it was made in an environmentally friendly and ethical manner. This means that the production of the item did not have any negative environmental, social, or economic impact. Sustainable promotional products are made with natural or recycled materials, and are great for positioning your brand as an environmentally conscious group.
