It's almost May the 19th, and you know what that means -- it's nearly time for another British royal wedding! It's been seven years since William and Kate married, now in 2018, it's time for Harry to tie the knot with his TV star bride, Meghan. However we're not here for the romantic gossip, we're here for the merchandise and trust me, this promotional merchandise delivers!

1. Unconventional items amplify brand impact.
2. Tailor merchandise to trends, audience.
3. Every promotion deserves a royal touch.

Promotional Products Fit For Royalty

While here in Australia many of us don't go all-in for royal watching, back in England (and even in the US this time) there's a lot of excitement over Harry and Meghan's big day. Because people want to own a piece of the day, a lot of promotional products featuring the royal couple have sprung up across the web. Plenty of them are quite elegant and thoughtful, but some of these promotional goodies are so bizarre you have to see them to believe them.

Harry and Meghan Photo-Print Socks

Now that print decoration has come far enough to allow full-colour photographic print on promotional socks. It means wedding watchers can wear the happy couple on their feet wherever they go. I'm sure this is a great thing and not at all creepy.

Branded Royal Wedding Cereal

A wonderfully tacky piece of memorabilia that features cartoonish images of the happy couple on a cereal box. Inside? Actual cereal. Yeah, the contents aren't too exciting, but the novelty of buying royal wedding custom cereal is excitement enough.

Embroidered Royal Doggy Bandanas

This dog's expression says it all -- "I hate you, human. Why would you do this to me?" I mean we might love our pets but do we want to pretend they're into the royal wedding rather than chasing balls and scratching their butts?

Meghan and Harry Party Masks

And finally, if you want to take your love of the latest royal couple that step further and cosplay them at a party or just generally weird out your friends, there's an assortment of party masks featuring full-colour, life-sized images of Harry and Meghan's heads. Yeah.

Or if you're a little more subdued, there's always the official royal merchandise such as commemorative teacups and plates that are perhaps a little less "out there." 

Making Marketing Memorable

As promotional merchandise goes offbeat with the royal wedding, businesses can learn a thing or two when creating their own promotional products. Remember:

• Customisation: By offering unique promotional items that are easily identifiable, you can create a long-lasting impact on customers and a higher recall value.
• Innovation: Leveraging advanced technologies like hi-resolution printing can make your promotional products stand out and add extra value to the customers.
• Inclusiveness: Expand your promotional product range to cater to a wider audience, including pets or children, creating more opportunities to connect with customers.
• Occasion-based products: Tap into special events, holidays, or milestones to create products that celebrate these occasions, increasing customer engagement with your brand.

Capitalise On Trends

Keeping up with and capitalising on trends, just as the royal memorabilia has done, can create a positive impact on business promotional strategies. Here's how:

• Timely promotions: Align your promotional products with ongoing trends, events, or popular culture, giving your brand more relevance.
• Monitor demand: Track current market trends and adjust your offerings accordingly to maximise reach and effectiveness in your target audience.
• Unconventional branding: Encourage creativity while designing promotional merchandise, making your brand memorable and distinctive in the customers’ minds.
• Trendsetter: Dare to set the trend; creating buzz with innovative and original promotional products can establish your business as a leader and industry pioneer.
