Holiday promo packs featuring goodies for the beach are a popular choice for Australian organisations and a great way to save time and money for Christmas/New Years’ staff and customer rewards. But how do you choose the right products to include in your gift sets?
I’ve consulted with other Cubic Promote team members to develop a list of 4 promotional products that will make any beach kit pop. We’ve based this list on the successes we’ve noticed over our combined years in the industry, so we’re confident that any custom beach pack you create will benefit from including one or all of these unique items.
Personalised Beach Mats
Not only can the hot sand at the beach be uncomfortable, but it can also be dangerous. On a sweltering day, the sand at the beach can heat up to high enough temperatures that it can cause severe burns to the skin. That’s why one of the first products we recommend for promotional outdoor products are custom beach mats, which offers protection from the hot sand the moment you lay it down.
Beach mats are akin to picnic mats for the sand, reinforced cloths you and your party can sit on without directly touching the environment. Not only are they highly cost-effective to purchase, but they’re also lightweight and easy to store, so if you give a beach mat in a gift set, it will prove useful.
Promotional Sunscreen
Sunscreen is one of the best tools we have to aid in the prevention of skin cancer. Australians know what it’s like to live in a sunburnt country, so most of us will automatically take sunscreen with us when we head to the beach, regardless of the season. So including promotional sunscreen in a beach-themed gift pack is a no-brainer.
Not only have we found that this is an item recipients expect to see in these packs, but they’re also a smart way to get your message or logo noticed over an extended period, as sunscreen tubes can last multiple beach trips (depending on size). Aussies know to reapply their sunscreen regularly too, so this one is a given from both a marketing and recipient-care perspective!
Logo Beach Balls
You’ll still need something to do if you’re at the beach protected from the sun. While catching a few waves, swimming and snorkelling will keep you entertained for most of your day; When you head back on shore you’ll need to stay amused, and that’s where the classic custom beach ball comes in handy. Beach balls are cheap to produce, fold down and take up minimal space, and they can prove useful for all sorts of beach ball games with family and friends.
Ask our team members, we often add beach balls into existing gift sets over the summer for people to use during Christmas and New Year’s Day trips to the beach and it makes sense. They’re not going to add much bulk to your existing gift pack, but they will pack a lot of punch and prove a fun addition to any Aussie beach adventure.
Branded Cooler Bags
If you’re taking a trip to the beach, you’ll need to stay fed and hydrated. The best way to do that is to bring water and snacks with you rather than shelling out (haha) for costly beach stall food. Promotional cooler bags are not only the ideal way to transport food/drink items at a relatively consistent temperature but also the perfect way to bundle your beach gift pack as a single hamper!
The Cubic Promote team often gets requests to pop together gift pack items together in one bag, and cooler bags are always the leading option for the holiday period; they’re just so handy when you’re keeping a lot of people fed and hydrated on the move.
