Tips for Selecting Promotional Umbrellas

Many businesses, organizations and benefits are constantly looking for good giveaway items to say thank you to customers or benefactors. Promotional umbrellas are always a popular item for these kinds of moments but selecting the right promotional umbrella is often not as easy as you might think.

Here are some things to think about while you are browsing catalogues or doing online research.

How heavy do you want the promotional umbrellas to be? Promotional umbrellas come in a variety of weights so knowing the weight range you are interested in is helpful. You might want to consider lighter promotional umbrellas as they will be easier to transport and carry.

How easily do you want the promotional umbrellas to open and do you want the umbrella to open automatically? Again, this is a matter of knowing your customer and donor base. Automatic opening promotional umbrellas may cost a bit more but if the recipients of your promotional umbrellas are senior citizens the additional ease of opening may be a real value added feature.

How big do you want the promotional umbrellas to be? You will have a fairly wide range of sizes to choose from so, knowing whether you want to buy umbrellas that are small and storable under a car seat or can fit into a briefcase, purse or backpack is an important decision.

Decide if your want to select promotional umbrellas that are weatherproof and windproof. Both of these features seem reasonable as they mean the umbrella won't rust and is less likely to turn inside out in a mild wind.

Are you interested in buying Teflon treated hoods? The Teflon repels water which helps the hood to dry faster.

What color(s) and design are you looking for? If you select more neutral colors and smaller size, the promotional umbrella will be more versatile and fit with more people's style

What are you going to have printed on the promotional umbrellas? Promotional umbrellas with a name and logo on them are a good way to market products and services as very time someone pops open the hood they are marketing you.

Is a storage pouch a must? Sometimes a case to store a promotional umbrella is a nice feature, but there are many people who do not use them even though they come with the product.
