No matter how you feel about Donald Trump, he is undoubtedly a master of self-promotion (if absolutely nothing else). Nowhere is this more apparent than in his official merchandise store which offers keen US fans all manner of promotional products emblazoned with his "Make America Great Again" slogan. T-shirts and hats we've all seen on TV, but if you look a bit further beneath the surface there are several bizarre promotional items that Trump sells... for man's best friend!

 

  1. Trump taps creative promotional strategy.
  2. Dog apparel fosters community, starts conversations.
  3. Novel merchandise expands the promotional industry.

Presidental Marketing Merchandise for Dogs

While a valid argument against these strange goodies for pooches might be "dogs can't read, and even if they did would they support policies as objectively awful as Donald Trump's?" But on the other hand, keen Trump fans want to deck themselves and their doggos out in their favourite attire before heading to his rallies -- you can appreciate why POTUS might want to cash in on that devotion with some memorable promotional products.

Logo and Slogan Doggie Collar (and Leash)

It's important for dogs to wear collars and leashes while they're out on a walk. If you're a devoted Trump voter, you might want to go the extra mile and deck your doggo out in the full #MAGA and Trump/Pence logo ensemble with these fabric dog collars and leashes. While you could always go for a regular red/white/blue collar and leash look if you're USA-mad, if you really want to part with nearly $70AUD you can grab a set with the official Trump look on both.

 T-Shirt for Dogs With Trump Branding

Why would a dog need a weird little t-shirt when a jacket is more efficient for keeping them warm? Because their owner wants them to dress alike, that's why! And these little doggie shirts are basically identical to the tees being sold for full-grown and small humans alike. Made from the same poly-cotton blend and with the same Trump/Pence 2016 logo, these dog shirts are a great way to... make your dog wear a political shirt, I guess? Oh yeah, and they're a "shortened cut" so the dog doesn't "mess" them... so there's that.

Are these three goodies the last we'll see of Trump's expanded branding platform for canines? Only time will tell. For now, however, US fans can deck their dogs out in some rather bizarre items that are bound to grab attention.

Understanding Political Doggy Apparel

The trend of dressing our furry friends in political swag isn't just about making a fashion statement. It observes their role as family members, and the political inclination of a family is thus reflected onto them. Here's an insight into this intriguing phenomenon:

  • Symbol of Solidarity: These products are often seen as an extension of the owner's political loyalty and serve as a silent yet powerful message of solidarity.
  • Community Building: As supporters gather for rallies or events, a dog adorned in Trump's merchandise aids in building a sense of community among like-minded people.
  • Conversation Starter: A dog wearing a politically charged t-shirt serves as an ice-breaker or conversation starter, creating an opportunity for political dialogue.
  • Revenue Generation: From a business perspective, it opens up a new and profitable market segment.

Promotion Product Industry Impact

Harnessing the popularity of pets for promotional campaigns is a novel approach that's reshaping the industry. Here's how:

  • New Market Segment: The emergence of such niche products marks the creation of a new market segment in the promotional industry.
  • Brand Recognition: Interesting merchandise like dog apparel proves effective in sustaining and enhancing brand recognition.
  • Influencing Purchase Decisions: Such products can influence purchase decisions as consumers are drawn towards unique merchandise offerings.
  • Potential for Growth: With the love for pets being universal, such promotional products have a huge potential for growth and adoption globally.

Takeaway
