Promotional Umbrellas Instead Of Signs

Umbrellas are really pretty. They are colorful and sometimes quite large. You can have them customized and use them for advertising. Because they are so obvious, no one that walks or drives by the large beach size, will miss them. You can really use that to your advantage by arranging some in the front of your store.

If you are stuck with a small boring sign in front of your business there is hope. Although the landlord only allows the same standard boring sign for all the companies in your little strip mall you could possibly use some large umbrellas to grab some attention. They can be customized in any color and can hold your logo or other information.

Even if you only get one large umbrella it will get seen by all sorts of traffic. For walkers they will see it angle by angle as they get closer. The colors will catch the eye of people in cars and they will be able to see your logo coming and going. If there is any space at all in front of your store you could even put up a table that can hold the umbrella. If people have a seat they will be looking at your business.

When you use these umbrellas you are not only getting some nice advertising. you also give people a place to take it easy for a few minutes. They can get out of the sun and take a break from shopping. There is an amazing amount of advertising space on an open umbrella. You can use each of those areas to put a different color or printed material.

This umbrella idea would work for just about any store. There is always one in the group that wants to sit while others shop. If you have a few chairs or a bench with your umbrella it will be very inviting. If you have an auto repair shop you could use it as a waiting are for people. It will be seen from the street as well. If you sell clothes you could put a scene with mannequins under the umbrella. Now that would get some attention.

With a nice promotional key chain a customer will remember to return to your store. If your pretty umbrellas attract them in you need to give them some sort of promotional item to keep you in mind.
