What is a great Shirt?

Who is your target market?

  • Different markets will be looking for and expect different things. Did you know men are more likely than women to wear a branded t-shirt in public? Once you understand your target market and what it is that they want you can then better plan your t-shirt marketing strategy.
  • How old is your target market? Younger recipients tend to be more receptive to big, bold, and bright where as a more seasoned audience may show a preference towards quiet, subtle, and traditional.

Why branded T-shirt’s can rock your marketing strategy!

  • The more people that have them the more your brand is “seen” – its’ all about brand recognition.
  • Make a statement! The more people see your name, logo, or cause being worn their natural curiosity will be sparked – “What is this company, cause, or business about, anyways? And, how can I get my hand on a shirt?”
  • Pens, notepads, calendars, and stickers are great – but when a bunch of people are wearing the same thing the statement is very clear; “we are professional and we want you to join us!”

Make new friends but keep the old.

  • Host a social media contest
  • Grow that email list! Give away a free branded t-shirt to the first 100 people that sign up.
  • Give your branded t-shirt away at tradeshows, booths, fairs, or as a thank you gift.
  • Give them to your friends!

Invest in your team!

  • Everyone likes to ‘feel’ a part of something – unite your company and build a ‘team spirit’. The more your employees’ believe in you the harder they will work and want to share the ‘positive vibe’ with others.
  • Unity = productivity
  • Your friends, family, and employees are your voice when you are not there – don’t leave them out; include them! Give them a t-shirt too!
