Cost-Effective

The Wood & Co Coffee Success Story

Let me tell you a little story of how promotional umbrellas helped boost sales for one Aussie business. The blokes at Wood & Co Coffee wanted to find new leads in unexplored regions but most of their customers only came from one area far away from other potential markets.

So, they jumped on a sponsorship chance and got some sick custom-branded brollies for a charity race. They weren't just trying to keep people dry. They were also looking to spot some possible new business partnerships along the way! And they did! With no idea who was attending the event, Wood & Co's branding strategy had already yielded results.

They gave out free hot drinks to competitors and handed out over 100 promo brollies with recognisable branding. Plus, they offered a chance to claim another coffee by filling up a feedback form. As racers moved around other venues after the race, it created awareness in previously untapped markets which eventually led to stronger relationships and boosted sales for Wood & Co. Bloody ripper of an outcome!

In Summary
