Thirsty For Effective Branding Ideas? These Top Promotional Drinkware Products Will Quench Your Thirst
We Americans are a thirsty bunch. We drink more than 14.4 billion gallons of bottled water each year. When not hydrating with H2O, we’re sipping on 3.8 billion gallons of tea. And what about our obsession with coffee? Americans consume 400 million cups of coffee per day, which is equivalent to 140 billion cups of coffee per year…and that makes us the leading consumer of coffee in the world.
Just to prove we’re crazy for coffee, 49% of coffee drinkers would rather give up their cell phone for a month and 52% would rather go without a shower in the morning—oh my!—than give up their daily cup of joe. And if you check out #coffee on Instagram, there’s 147 million posts (and counting!).
So with all this drinking, gulping, sipping, imbibing, slurping, swilling and general partaking of our favorite beverages, it’s no surprise that much of it happens with logoed drinkware. In fact, 88% of respondents to the Global Ad Impressions Study own promotional drinkware.
That’s a smart investment for advertisers. Promotional drinkware is kept for an average of 12 months and garners 1,400 impressions throughout its lifetime.
Why do recipients keep branded drinkware so long? The survey revealed that 70% keep drinkware items because of the quality, 48% because of utility and 29% because of attractiveness.
With the vast majority of people already owning promotional drinkware, it’s going to take something special to get consumers to shelve their current mugs so they make yours a favorite. What are the possibilities? Check out these ideas:

Top Promotional Drinkware
While drinkware may simply seem like utilitarian fare, don’t be fooled. People really love them. In fact, according to research from Heinz, 60% have an “emotional attachment” to their favorite mug, and 31% are so protective of their special drinking vessel that they never let anyone else drink from it!
“We are incredibly attached to these simple everyday objects because psychologically they evoke a sense of warming, comfort and safety in us,” says food psychologist Christy Fergusson in this Telegraph article. “Thaler coined this term ‘endowment effect.’ When we touch something, it almost becomes an extension of us. You can create a deeper connection to it and associate memories, emotions and feelings with objects.”
So next time you incorporate promotional drinkware into an upcoming campaign, think about what kind of connection recipients will make with the cup, mug, bottle or glass. It’s all about the brand experience.
