  1. Custom Branding with Bauhaus Font

    Hey Charles, may you recommend me a font to brand with that will make my event look good? Invariably, my reply would be "go with Bauhaus font" Why? Because, this font seems so retro, modern, clear, and simply stylish. This year celebrates the 100th anniversary year that this font has been around.

    Where Can I See Bauhaus?

    Everywhere, there are many editorials and advertisements both online and offline that use this font without you possibly even knowing. If you want to see it in action and use it yourself via Microsoft word or excel, if it does not default there, then download the font (its everywhere on the internet).

    History of this Font

    The history of the Bauhaus font began in 1919. A man by the name of Walter Gropius started an art project to connect art, industry, architecture and geometry. The Bauhaus font with its unique lines, balance, and structure as we know it today was thus formed.

  5. 2019 Oscar Awards Swag Bag

    The Oscar awards are the pinnacle gifting swag bag in my industry (FYI: Swag, is what Americans call show bags. I prefer the Aussie term of show bags.) I love going through the what-is-in-it list every year because they have some incredible promotional items.

    No Less Than 10 Gift Locations

    What is incredible to me, is quite ordinary in America. This year there is no less than 10 locations that offer free gifting. Just turn up to those locations and free stuff. Pretty good right? All this free stuff occurs in the weeks and days leading up to the actual Hollywood award night.

    Well, it is not quite that easy. The free stuff is only given out to people who have an invite. So I imagine there is a list floating around for event organisers filled with A, B, and C class celebrities.

    Why Give out Free Stuff

  6. Why Buy Promotional Mints?

    Mints are a delicious treat many of us like to pop in our mouths after a strong coffee or a cigarette to keep our breath smelling nice and fresh. Because they're refreshing and help with bad breath, mints have now become a staple at networking events, conferences, and even things like university o-weeks. If you want to make a good impression then investing in promotional mints might be a smart move for your organisation.

    Why Custom Mints are Popular Products

    Here at Cubic Promote, we find a lot of people purchase bulk personalised mints because they want to hand them to recipients during events. I'm sure you've been to a conference and found mints at

  7. Pizza Hut Swag (or Promotional items in Oz)

    Please pardon me, but I could not resist but use the American slang term for promotional items in the title. The word Swag is simply too amusing to me! Today I want to share with your a merchandising effort, done by Pizza Hut. Admittedly this was done a few years ago, but the creativity and awesomeness are undeniably timeless.

    Merchandise Custom Apparel You Want to Wear

    Merchandising and custom branding onto products can be tricky sometimes. Having your merchandise too outrageous (especially when it comes to apparel), and no one will want to wear it. On the other hand, having bland and boring designs may also mean that no one would like to wear them too. So how do you strike a balance? There is no definitive answer, but I can tell you that this effort by Pizza Hut is successful in finding that balance.

    Personalised Apparel by Pizza Hut

    Back in late 2015 and into 2016 Pizza Hut released a range of merchandise in America (I really wish they did this in

  8. Unexpected Branded Merchandise Means Credibility

    Here at Cubic Promote we've seen just about every promotional item you can think of and, while a lot of them are similar we can say that certain brands and organisations thrive on delivering the unexpected. Why do they do this? Typically doing things in a radical way makes you unpredictable, edgy, and creative and many organisations would love to have their branding associated with these terms.

     

    1. Be unpredictable to boost creativity and credibility.
    2. Choose unique and functional designs.
    3. Customise quantity and availability.

    Take Supreme for Example

    Supreme is a clothing and lifestyle brand that is rather incredible. Their marketing, motifs, and limited supply have allowed them to charge huge amounts of $$ for simple basic merchandise. They are at the forefront of creating clothing for millennials. So how did they get here? Take a look at their 2019 range of custom

  9. Buy New Umbrellas for National Umbrella Day

    They have a national day for everything around the world. Who would have thought that the humble umbrella would also get a day too? Well, it has, and it had also passed me by without my knowledge. You see February 10th, is officially known as Umbrella Day!

    Umbrellas Taken for Granted

    There are a few products in life we take for granted. A ballpoint pen is one, and an umbrella is another. If it rains, we search for custom casual umbrellas, the thought and the action comes automatically with little consideration or processing for alternate options. The umbrella is possibly is one of the most brilliant inventions of all time, a universal object that individuals from any background can use and appreciate.

  10. Next Level Personalised Bags

    Personalising your own bag for yourself, or using promotional bags customised with an organisations logo, is rather standard stuff nowadays. Branding on bags tends to be quite standardised. We should know, as we are responsible for personalising hundreds of bags each day. This effort by Mercedes Benz however, takes custom branding to a whole other level. We thought we'd share this unique corporate branded bag promotion just to show you how unique a humble branded bag can be!

     

    1. Personalise bags creatively for impact.
    2. Unconventional branding sets your bags apart.
    3. Unique bags generate buzz and recognition.

    How Bags are Personalised

    Virtually all bags, (cheap, or expensive) carry a brand name, brand tag or design which is personalised using any one (or several), of the branding methods listed below:

    • Embroidery
    • Screen printing
    • Badging
