Why Should I Use Promotional Merchandise? Promotional merchandise is a very useful marketing tool. It can be used by a wide variety of businesses. One of the many benefits of this style of marketing is that you can use your existing customers to attract new customers.

What Businesses Can Benefit From Using Promotional Merchandise? Local Coffee Shops - If you’re a local coffee shop, searching for a way to attract new customers to your business, promotional products could be a fantastic solution. Pin badges and stickers could be fantastic ways to promote your business by giving customers cool items that they can wear and business cards with a loyalty system could all be fantastic ways of attracting new customers. If you make your own cakes at your coffee shop, you could also create custom cupcake toppers. Use fantastic designs incorporated with your branding and customers may take photos of your delicious cakes with the cupcake topper for their social media profiles. Then their friends will see the delicious cakes and because of the fantastic cupcake toppers, all their friends will know where they can find the delicious cakes.
Bands/Musical Artists - If you’ve ever been to a concert/gig you’ll remember the hordes of people gathering around a merch table. Merchandise is a fantastic tool for promoting your music. By using catchy slogans or fantastic artwork you can attract fans to promote your music in their day-to-day lives. There are many different ways you can promote your music with merchandise, you can use custom keyrings, posters, phone covers, pin badges and stickers to spread your image and potentially attract new listeners.
Local Activity Clubs - Custom keyrings, zipper charms or pin badges would be a fantastic way to promote your local activity club. Passionate club members would be able to proudly wear your merchandise where it can be seen by other members of the public who may be inspired to become a member of your activity club.
Also various different types of custom charms, custom pins or standees could be a fantastic way to advertise your business. Many people like to collect zipper charms for their bags and this could be a fantastic opportunity for a promotional item for your business. Custom keyrings can be a fantastic form of marketing to include in your campaign. Giving your customers a promotional gift can be very useful to help increase brand awareness. A promotional product is an advertisement that keeps on giving. If somebody has a promotional zipper charm on their bag from your businesses, people they interact with in their daily lives will notice the charm. This could lead to conversations about your business and possibly attract new customers for you. Promotional products don’t have to be throwaway objects that are kept at home. Small charms, pin badges or enamel pins can be added to people’s bags or their clothing. Promotional merchandise is a way of rewarding your faithful and loyal customers with a branded gift, but it also spreads your image and your branding to others. Word of mouth is a powerful marketing tool and high quality; beautifully designed promotional products can start that conversation.

Very good!
Absolutely no complaints, girlfriend loved them! The print and colors are clear, and everything is perfect. (she did replace the hook with our own little string, but the clasp we got with it also worked well and looked super cute!)

The symbol of the climate movement!
Seriously, Zap! Creatives has catapulted our position in the climate movement. The badges they've created for us have become THE symbol for women leading in climate - we've given out over 3,000 pins at this point (and don't plan to slow down!). Thank you to Zap for your responsiveness and commitment to sustainability. Project Dandelion is who we are because of your business.

Stand out print and cut!
First time ordering wood cut items from Zap and I couldn'tbe happier with the finals, super clean print on the wood, and even after I hand touched some acrylic color accents myself, the base art print was still clean, clear and on point. The jumper rings worked great for my own addons.

Amazing quality and great service!
Based on consultation via Instagram, I first ordered a sample of my coffee illustration printed on two different woods and with different chains: the rose gold lobster hook and the gold circle split chain - I received the samples within 2 weeks from the UK to France. It was a clear choice to get the gold chain that was metal and I ordered an equal number of the two woods. The final product is of super great quality - the cherry wood is lighter with a smooth texture whereas the walnut is darker and more rustic looking. I love both and so do my clients! I genuinely recommend this service and will re-order once I run out of the keychains! :)

Would buy again
I had a commission done & decided to have it made into a standee (with permission). It came out beautifully and I love it! I'll most likely get different designs in the future.

Excellent!
They came out so good and myself and customers are very happy with them. Great customisation options. Love that they send you a proof first. And happy to receive the extra “miss prints” as well as I can turn these in to necklaces for fun.

Acrylic Standee + Stickers
The quality was beautiful. Both the standees and the stickers. The stickers are way more durable than expected and seem to stick to plastic and carbon fibre really well too.
While there was an error in the processing that caused a delay, the team handled it really well for an overall stress free experience.
Always a pleasure using these services and I reccomend them highly.
