Sweet Marketing with Promotional Jelly Beans (& More!)

Sweet Marketing with Promotional Jelly Beans (& More!)

Electronics

  

Custom Jelly Beans as a promotional tool?  There was a time when I believed that a consumable give-away wouldn’t provide marketing bang for the buck.  That was until I became the lucky recipient of an assortment pack of jelly beans from my hairdresser.

It engaged all of my senses – touch, taste, smell, sight, and sound too – if I shook the bag. 😉

Even after these jelly beans were long gone, a visit to my hairdresser would remind me of how thoughtful she had been. 

The lasting impression of custom food gifts lasts much longer than I previously thought.

There were other aspects of her gift that added to the experience.  Let’s dive into all of this yummy goodness and see how we can effectively utilize Custom Jelly Beans and other food products for your promotional needs.

Personalized Jelly Bean Branding Ideas

 

Customize your Jelly Beans through Color & Flavor

The gift I received was a thank you during the holidays.  My jelly beans were green, red, and white.  The corresponding flavors were green apple, cinnamon, and French vanilla.  Kind of like an apple pie!

The thing is – food gifts don’t need to be limited to holidays!  A thoughtful gift that’s unexpected will be greatly appreciated. 

How about picking flavors and colors that match your branding?

Customize Your Jelly Beans through Packaging

The sky is the limit when coming up with creative packaging ideas for your Custom Jelly Bean gifts.  Here’s a few ideas.

  1.  Cellophane Bag tied with Colorful Ribbon.
  2.  Zip lock bag with a custom full color label on the front.
  3.  Reusable tin customized with your branding that can be used long after the jelly beans are gone.
  4.  Glass jar etched with your logo filled with jelly beans matching your logo colors.
  5.  Bag of jelly beans packaged with another branded product such as a coffee mug.
  6.  Hand written card – customized of course.  This can go with any of the first five options.

 

The Keys to Custom Food Gifts:  Quality and Packaging

 

Customized food gifts (any time of year), show the recipient that thought went into the project.  Customized packaging is a finishing touch showing extra effort.  Think of the difference between a box of chocolates from a Big Box Store as opposed to chocolates in a beautifully branded box with a message of appreciation built right in.  How about custom molded chocolate?  It creates a different and better feeling with the recipient.

Of course the quality of your food gift is important, and often it is possible to take advantage of brand recognition.  Jelly Beans are a prime example.  Jelly Belly’s have high perceived value and are absolutely available to customize as previously discussed.  The same is true for a myriad of other food options including chocolate, meats & cheeses, brownies, coffee, tea…. you get the idea.

 

Custom Food Gift Inspiration!

 

Do you need twenty gifts or a thousand?

What makes the most sense for your promotional purpose?  Is this a thank you?  Promotion of a new product or service?  Or part of a swag pack for your next virtual meeting or conference? 

Here’s a few ideas to get your creative juices (see what I did there? 😉) flowing!

Modern Marketing Trends:  Custom Headphones

Modern Marketing Trends: Custom Headphones

Electronics

 

Need a cool marketing merch gift idea?  Whether for work or play, custom headphones high perceived value will help you elevate your brand.

On a zoom call in the middle of your noisy office?  No problem.  Cancel out background noise so you can immerse yourself in the topic at hand.  Need to be “in the zone” for your workout?  Earbuds and the right playlist will make that happen!

I think we can agree custom headphones and earbuds are a great idea, but what are the variables that should be considered when choosing a style for your next marketing campaign?

 

Types of Custom Headphones

 

Over-Ear Custom Headphones

These bad boys are big and comfy.  Lots of room for your branding to stand out.  They’re great for an office environment as it will be obvious to colleagues when they’re in a “do not disturb” or “in the zone” mode.  

These are an excellent choice for open concept offices, and the noise canceling feature will help boost productivity.  They’re also a favorite of gamers.

Custom On-Ear Headphones

On-ear headphones may leak sound (both in and out), but they are a better option if you’re taking them place to place.  They’re also popular with the fitness crowd.  They’re more stable than their over-ear counterpart and if earbuds bother your ear canal – this is a great option.

Then there is the cool factor.  That whole vintage-looking hipster vibe will matter to your brand conscious recipients.  

Bone Conduction Headphones

What the heck is bone conduction?  According to webopedia.com – bone conduction uses the natural vibrations of a person’s bones such as skull, jaw and cheek bones to hear sound.  This allows the wearer to hear audio content without blocking the ear canal.  Bone conduction technology is used in hearing aids too.

While sound quality is not as good, these have an amazing fit, are great for physical activities, and conducive to the need for situational awareness since your ears stay open.

Yes – these can be branded.

Custom In-Ear Buds

From a functional standpoint, you have two options for ear buds.  The first is in-ear.  This is a great option for noise isolation and sound quality.  As implied by the name, the bud is inside the ear canal.

In-Ear Buds can be customized albeit with a much smaller logo.  They will be appreciated and keep your brand in front of the recipient.

Classic Ear Buds

For those of us with sensitive ear canals, there is the Classic Ear Bud!  This is the old-school style that came with the Walkman or iPod back in the day. 😉  They don’t go in your ear canal but rather hang at the entrance.

They are super portable, very cost effective, and allow for situational awareness.  If you’re running downtown – you’ll want to hear the traffic around you for safety.

 

Get Inspired!

 

Headphones or Ear Buds?  Bluetooth or wired?  What about branding?  Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here are a few examples to show you what is possible.

 

Lunatune Wireless Headphones

Fun, functional, and easy to brand.  The foldable design has a range of up to 33 feet and 8+ hours of audio playtime.

Budsies Wireless Earbuds

Available in black or white and connected by a single sports performance style cord, these will be buds for life!  smile   Full color logo on dome.

Beebop Wireless Headphones

Includes a built-in microphone for integrated call handling.  Rock out without missing out on that important call.

Kronies Wireless Earbuds

Listen to your favorite jams or call your friends using the built in microphone.  Full digital image on the dome.

Wrapsody Wireless Headphones

Omni-directional bass, advanced microphone, and high-def stereo sound.  Plus – full color decoration.

AfterShokz BoneConduction Headphones

How cool are these?  And still room for a small one color logo on the side.

Reward Your Brand Champions with Custom Headphones and Earbuds

 

It’s pretty slick that many of the options for custom headphones and earbuds allow for full color digital images.  This gives you lots of room to get creative!  There is also a wide range of price points so keeping on budget won’t be a problem.
