Winter is an ideal time to be doing promotions if your business has anything to do with automobiles. Whether you sell auto insurance, service brakes, clean and detail cars or have anything else to do with the auto industry, there are dozens of promotional items that are ideal for use as wintertime giveaways and incentives. Here are just a few of the top winter
promotional items and
business gifts for auto concerns.
Ice Scrapers
The quintessential wintertime driving accessory is the ice scraper. It’s a must have for every driver, so why not take full advantage of their need to advertise your business? There are several ranges of promotional ice scrapers that you can brand with your name, in prices from £.38. Some of them are so inexpensive that you can easily hand them out to each customer without going over budget. They feature a large print area for your logo or promotional message, and will guarantee that your customers will be grateful to your thoughtfulness each chilly winter morning. (Hint: these also make GREAT promotional items for cruise lines and travel agents. Who wouldn’t rather be on the Cote d’Azur?)
Car Emergency Took Kits
If there’s anything worse than having your car give up the ghost on the side of the road, it’s having your car give up the ghost on the side of the road in the middle of winter. A car emergency tool kit is an ideal addition to your winter time offerings in a loyalty programme, or as a thank you to your best customers. Choose one with a heavy duty plastic case that can be printed with the name of your company, and a variety of tools that will help your customers out in any situation.
Isolating Flask Sets
Appeal to warmth and luxury with a high range isolating flask and matching mugs for the executives on your list. They’ll warm your customers’ moods with the promise of hot drinks and warm friends, and keep them thinking of you all winter long.
Air Fresheners
Air fresheners are great any time of the year, but are so easy to customize for the winter time and the holidays. You can order them in any shape, custom designed especially for your company. In the winter, choose those deliciously warm, heavy scents like bayberry and pine to keep car interior smelling festive and fresh. Your name will be dangling there right in front of your customers’ noses for a month or more.
Sun Shades
Sun shades may seem more apropos for summer time promotions, but they serve just as well during the winter to shield from ice and snow. They also offer easily one of the largest advertising print areas of nearly any other promotional items.
If you want to be creative, there are many other winter time promotional items that can be suited to an automobile based business. You might consider a handy Mag-Lite to keep in the glove box, or a Mag-Lite and Swiss Army Knife combination.
