In marketing, sometimes size really does matter.
A logo printed on a pen might be seen from a few inches away. Put the same branding across a large golf umbrella and suddenly your business can be visible from the other side of a street, exhibition ground or golf course.
That's one of the reasons branded umbrellas remain such an interesting promotional product for businesses looking to make a bigger impression.
A Promotional Product You Can't Easily Miss
Most promotional merchandise is relatively small.
Pens, keyrings, mugs and USB drives all have their place, but the available branding area is inevitably limited.
A promotional golf umbrella is completely different.
Its large canopy gives businesses an unusually generous space to work with. A company logo can be reproduced at a size that gets noticed, while additional panels provide opportunities for secondary branding, web addresses, campaign messages or completely different designs.
For businesses wanting visibility, that's a significant advantage.
Perfect for Corporate Golf Days
Golf umbrellas are particularly effective at corporate golf events.
Whether you're organising your own golf day, sponsoring a tournament or providing gifts for players, a quality branded umbrella combines practicality with prominent advertising.
British golf and unpredictable weather tend to go together.
When the rain arrives, your promotional product suddenly becomes one of the most useful items on the course.
Even when the weather remains dry, umbrellas can still be carried with golf equipment ready for when they're needed.
And after the event?
The recipient takes your branding home with them.
Think Beyond the Golf Course
Despite the name, promotional golf umbrellas certainly aren't restricted to golfers.
Their generous size makes them ideal for businesses in property, construction, hospitality, automotive sales, education and events.
An estate agent conducting an outdoor viewing can shelter a customer beneath a branded umbrella. A hotel can keep them ready for guests. A construction company can use them during site visits, while businesses can issue matching umbrellas to staff attending outdoor exhibitions and events.
One product can potentially work across dozens of situations.
Use the Canopy Creatively
Large umbrellas also give designers room to be more adventurous.
A simple logo on alternating panels can create a smart corporate appearance, but that's only the beginning.
Contrasting canopy colours can reinforce your corporate identity. Multiple panels can carry different elements of a campaign, while full-canopy printing can transform virtually the entire umbrella into a bespoke piece of advertising.
The result doesn't necessarily have to be loud.
A carefully designed umbrella using understated colours and discreet branding can look extremely premium.
It's about making the design appropriate for your business.
