What has changed is that people now take their beverages with them. If they didn’t have time to grab a cup of jo at home, they stop at an espresso drive-through, deli, or coffee shop for the full five minutes it takes to get that special flavor they need to face the busy day.
Promotional travel mugs will take you the distance. While beverage serving establishments provide disposable cups, the traveling beverage drinker prefers to carry a private travel mug. Travel mugs reduce paper waste and have greater hot and cold retention than disposable cups. Their caps fit more securely and will not crack or break. Joggers, runners and bicyclists use travel mugs to refresh themselves while they are exercising.
The advantages of having your company name embellished on a travel mug are obvious if you are a company that sells beverages, but it can be an asset, regardless of your business. The tourism industry uses travel mugs as souvenirs that remind the visitor of location as well as establishment. Promotional campaigns use travel mugs as part of their marketing plan at public events, holiday celebrations, and trade fairs.
Travel mugs have a high visibility. People who typically use travel mugs spend very little time in a home setting. They carry their mug to their office space, keep it in the car between appointments, have it refilled in busy locations. The athletic and the nature bound bring their travel mugs into picnic areas, parks and to sporting events.
The sturdy construction of travel mugs is what has given them popular appeal. The materials used are thick plastic, and stainless steel or ceramic. The screw-top caps protect against spillage. They contain an open/shut valve for drinking. Most are of a compatible size for cup holders in vehicles or for strapping to belts.
Make your company a marathon racer with promotional travel mugs handsomely displaying your company logo and attracting attention each time they are used. The energy that is needed to start the morning is no longer found on the breakfast table, but in a travel mug for the fast paced American society that always has somewhere to go.
