If there’s any promotional product that makes your brand the life of the party, it’s got to be coolers and insulated bags. These branded best-sellers pile on the function and longevity, so you know they’ll make plenty of big impressions. Whether you use them as new hire gifts, client incentives, company holiday gifts, or to surprise retirees, you can bet these custom coolers and cooler bags will be received with a smile. The Pinnacle Promotions team is always available to help you order your promotional products, but here are some useful tips to help you get started.
Think about quality (and budget)
Coolers are branded items that vary widely in terms of price. You’ll find everything from super affordable insulated lunch bags for less than $2 a piece to premium coolers made by top brands like YETI® and Bison. Before you shop for promotional coolers, be sure you have a set budget in mind to easily narrow your search. Brand, size, material and special features all play into the price of certain coolers and bags.
Consider special features
Ask yourself what kinds of features you want in an insulated cooler. We can put your logo or branding on insulated lunch bags, hard coolers, rolling coolers, coolers with straps, backpack coolers and even coolers that come with a portable grill or a Bluetooth speaker. We also have both soft- and hard-shell coolers to meet your unique demands. You’ll even find coolers with stands and cooler chairs that you can order with your logo, so there’s really no reason why you shouldn’t get the absolute perfect option for your company’s style and budget.
Choose a style to honor your brand
Any company that focuses on fun, recreation, or outdoor living will want to consider choosing coolers as an effective branded product. Bearing in mind color, design, and special features, try to pick an option that celebrates the spirit and vibe of your brand. If your company is all about sports, go with a style that works well for tailgating or outdoor pursuits. If you provide healthy snacks, maybe a promotional lunch bag is a better pick. Brainstorm with customers and employees to see how you can best appeal to your target audience.
Think about capacity
Besides the design and style of your cooler, you also need to consider size. We have coolers that range in capacity from six to 48 cans, so make sure you’re aware of the different size options. Naturally, you will want to choose smaller six- or eight-can coolers for personal use and large coolers for applications like parties and entertaining. If you intend to pair your products with beverages or food, make sure the sizing is right.
Order early
Custom products take a little bit longer for production, so be sure that you account for the extra time if you’re placing an order for a special event, like a festival or trade show. Remember to look at the standard production time at the bottom of every product for an estimate on how long it will take to make. Need custom coolers fast? We offer various quick-ship coolers and insulated bags that we can process in 24 hours.
Properly configure your artwork
As with any custom promotional item, you’ll want to carefully follow our artwork guidelines for the best possible result. We recommend high-quality vector files to ensure that you get the highest quality rendering. Also, be sure to submit a logo or design that works well with the color you’ve chosen for the background.
Pick the best imprint type
Because they can be made of so many unique materials, from hard plastic to collapsible canvas, custom coolers can be imprinted in a wide variety of fashions. The most common options are screen printing or four-color process, which leave behind a vibrant, quality logo. For additional texture and quality, you might choose an embroidered or engraved cooler.
