An absolutely awesome giveaway to your favorite employee or client is personalized and custom printed glassware. And there are a number of great types of glassware to choose from.
If you are buying glassware to for your Merchandise catalog you may want to consider what type of clients you're serving - and what they might be drinking. Are they Wine or Champagne Drinkers? Or are they simply beer drinkers? A good idea might be to check with the sales reps to find out what type of glassware to stock up on.
Many companies prefer to order 3 or 4 types of glass ware to make sure they have something for every customer and every occasion. Here are a few types of exclusive gift glassware to consider for your catalog:
Wine glasses - America has become a nation of wine drinkers - Americans drink $30 billion worth of wine each year according to the California International Business Report. Americans tend to see wine as an "affordable luxury," a product that symbolizes a special experience. If you have customers that are wine drinkers, a set of customized wine glasses is the perfect gift. And since white and red wine is enjoyed in different types of glasses, you want to order the different styles required. Exclusive hand blown glasses for red and white wine are competitively priced and can be purchased for as low as $1.50 a piece. Right now the stemless wine glasses are becoming increasingly popular, but you can never go wrong with a classical Goblet with a long, sleek stem.
Beer mugs - The world of beer mugs is a universe on its own! A really slick alternative is the Frosted Sports Beer Mug which gives that chilled, delicious appearance - even before you put it in the freezer for more frosting.
Martini Glasses - Martin glasses are not just for Gin or Vodka Martinis. Basically every drink a bartender mixes today is poured in a Martini glass - from the classic Cosmopolitan to the Mojito. They're beautiful to look at and send a very exclusive message. You can even get hand-painted colored stem martini glasses in vibrant colors such as pink, purple or blue.
Shot Glasses - Shot Glasses are great gifts and party favors and can be bought competitively priced in bulk. They come in great styles as Frosted Shooters or the Libbey Boot Shot Glass, shaped as a boot. Even a stainless steel shot glass is available for just $1.63 making it a great promotional buy.
Remember that some people are non-drinkers and as a promotional give-away, these glasses can send the wrong message or be perceived as offensive. Make sure you know who you're giving the glasses to avoid embarrassment!
