Promotional Stress Balls - Promote Your Business With Sports Shaped Logo Printed Stress Balls

With the London Olympics quickly approaching and of course all of the other professional sporting events regularly scheduled, have you ever considered promoting your company with sports shaped stress balls? There are stress balls manufactured in the shapes of almost every type of sports ball. From stress tennis balls to basket balls and soccer balls to bowling balls they are all available. There are also many other sports related shapes such as referees, sumos , and smiley football players. 

It is fun to base promotions around popular sporting events. If you have customers that you know follow sports, they will really enjoy receiving your promotional stressball in the shape of their favourite sports ball or sports figures.  In order to get the most out of your budget, you will need to plan ahead. Stressballs can often be express pad printed but for the best results, you will want to find a company that can supply transfer printed stressballs. This can take up to four weeks but the print is second to none. Even full colour logos can be printed and look spectacular.

Listed below are the dates of some of the most popular upcoming sporting events and the stress shapes that go with them. All of these products can be manufactured in the colours of your choice. That's right, you can order stressball footballs in your company colours! It is hoped that this list will help you plan ahead so that you can have the most successful of promotions!

The 2010 Super Bowl: The Super Bowl will be played in early February 2010.  The obvious choice is an American football shape. Also available are NFL helmets and referees.  If you want to ensure delivery of American football stress balls in time to build a promotion around the Super Bowl, allow yourself four weeks for delivery.

The 2010 South Africa World Cup: The South Africa World Cup starts on June 11,  2010. In the UK, large quantities of soccer ball stress balls will be held in stock so express lead-times will be possible. For best results, however, allow four weeks for your balls to arrive so that they can be transfer printed.

Wembledon 2010: Played annually at the beginning of July. Tennis ball shapes are kept in large stocks but bespoke colours and/or transfer printing is possible if you give yourself four weeks for delivery.

The 2010 Ryder Cup: Scheduled between the 29th of September and October 3rd 2010. It will be played near Cardiff. Popular golf stress balls include a golf ball stress ball, a golf bag with clubs shape and a golf trophy shape. The golf ball shape will be the most popular and will be held in stock. The other shapes will take at least four weeks to delivery.  As with the other shapes, each of these can be manufactured in your company colours.

The 2012 London Olympics: Scheduled between the 27th of July to the 12th of August.  There are so many different shapes to choose from for almost every sport played at the Olympics.  Plan early and place your order as the most popular shapes will sell out and lead-times will be longer.

It is easy to buy an imprinted pen or calendar and hand it out at your next trade show or sales call. But it is often a one shot deal. As a marketer, you want to find different ways to get your brand or services out there for clients and prospects to see.

McDonald's and Burger King have tied burger promotions to popular movies and tv characters for years with great success. We are not saying your little business should contact MGM or Warner Brothers, but you can certainly find plenty of tie-in opportunities in the news.

Take for instance the current swine flu epidemic. The so called H1N1 virus is pretty serious business. But it also gives you a chance to be part of the solution while you show off your logo or name. Custom imprinted hand cleaners and sanitizers will be well appreciated by everyone you hand them out too. They even make ideal handouts for employees. You want your staff to be healthy, and you certainly do not need a pandemic in your workplace.

With all of the talk about 2012 and the end of the world, you certainly can find humor in a "going out of business sale". You may not want to get too political, but there is plenty of humor in Washington and our state governments that would make a fun gimmick.

How about the weather. Soon it will be snowing in most parts. Why not be the first to hand out an ice scraper or snow brush. You guessed it, with your logo and contact information printed right on the handle. You can also create winter walking billboards by distributing knit hats or outerwear with your logo embroidered in full color.

Sports? Yep. That, too. Major events like the Super Bowl and March Madness are around the corner. There's nothing like the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat to attract the attention of men and women to your brand.

The same goes for entertainment. The Academy Awards are very popular in many demographics and an "Oscar" themed promotional product can glamour up any dull theme.

So, watch the new and come up with some fun ideas. Your existing and future customers will sure take notice. Your employees will pick up on your motivation or safety theme. And you will be involved in a promotional activity that is above the mundane.
