Summer is a great time to promote your business while at the same time helping your customers stay cool, comfortable and ready to enjoy all that this season has to offer. Here are 5 promotional gift ideas that can accomplish that inexpensively, attractively and, most important of all, practically:
-
Easy-to-carry, Light-weight, Inexpensive & Reusable Totes & Bags
Many people these days are concerned about the environmental problems that plastic bags create. There is also the issue of the health problems associated with the toxic chemicals (e.g., obesogens) in these bags.
You can help address this problem by offering your customers custom-printed totes/bags ideally suited to replace these bags. These bags are easy to fold into your backpack and use when you need.
The beauty of this idea is that they only have to purchase these totes only once, thus being able to use them over and over again.
Or, better yet, you can offer to offset the cost of the bags over several purchases—in which case the bags would be free, if the customer agrees to come back for a set number of times, or after completing a certain amount of purchases. These branded items will be taken to campsites, beaches and other high-traffic locations – putting your brand logo and name in front of thousands of people in the process.

Custom-Printed Stainless Steel Water Bottles
We can all use a cool drink of water on a hot day. This is yet another great promotional gift idea for the many health-conscious and environmentally responsible customers out there.
These water bottles are not only durable, attractive, tough, easy-to-carry, affordable and convenient, but they can greatly reduce the ever-increasing plastic water bottle pollution occurring globally.
Beyond that, users escape the potential ill-health effects of Bisphenol-A and other toxic chemicals found in plastic water bottles.

Colorful, Stylish & Custom-Printed with Your Special Design/Logo Bandanas
Coming in several different sizes, styles and brilliant colors, these bandanas can be custom-screen printed to help your customers remember your business, brand or message.
This is an especially useful tool, furthermore, for an over-burdened, busy parent taking the family on an outing during hot summer days.
Used to cover the head from the sun or dipped in cool water and worn around the neck, they can help keep an otherwise distressed patent from becoming overheated—both physically and metaphorically, considering how attractive and chic these summer attire accessories can be.
-
Visors
Not as hot, binding or cumbersome as regular caps, these visors can nevertheless be a great promotional gift idea for your best customers.
You can maybe give them away to every 100th customer that spends at least $5.00 at your place of business?
One type of customer that may appreciate such a gift are busy athletic, outdoorsy type ladies (regardless of age). These visors can help secure otherwise rowdy hair on windy days—especially if riding a bike, horse or convertible.
They can also help protect her eyes from bright sunlight, keep her cooler than a regular hat, and keep sweat from interfering with her eyesight.
-
Tank Tops
Cooler than “T” or polo shirts, these custom-printed sleeveless shirts make great promotional gifts for some of your most devoted customers. Think maybe of young teens out and about who want to show off their muscles, their tattoos or that fancy jewelry they just got for their birthday. But these tank tops look good and they also beckon the public to come visit your place of business!
These 5 promotional gift ideas may be just what your customers need to help them beat the heat. What’s great about these ideas, though, is that they not only help your customers but also make it possible for you to give your business the high visibility promotional products help impart.
