From back to school events to year round school athletic tournaments, our custom school promotional products are perfect for promoting school spirit and for recognizing students, teachers and administration. In fact, the education industry consistently ranks high on the list of top promotional products purchasers, accounting for 41.2% of repeat business in the industry in 2007 according to the Top Buyers Study.

Demographics for Distributing Custom School Promotional Products

In addition to the fact that they are affordable, custom school promotional products have a broad and extensive reach. In fact, nearly 49.7 million students are enrolled in public elementary and secondary schools in the United States ever year, not to mention the more than 5 million students who attend private schools across the nation. Teachers, as well as the parents and grandparents of students, are also receptive target audiences for receiving custom school promotional products and spreading any schools’ promotional message. In a recent study, people who were open to receiving promotional products generally kept the items for well over six months, making advertising specialties a less expensive means of promotion than any other form of advertisement, when compared on a cost per impression basis.

Custom School Promotional Products Create a Community

Due to their wide yet targeted reach, distributing branded custom school promotional products is a great way to foster loyalty amongst current and former students. In fact, research has proven that students are more likely to excel academically and to take part in extracurricular activities when they are excited and proud of their school, as well as appropriately equipped with backpacks, rulers and writing utensils. Students will hold onto these items for many years and even graduates who have moved across the country will still display their school pride with t-shirts, caps and other wearable college logo promotional items, thus creating a sense of community for your school. Another way to promote school spirit is by using custom school promotional products to promote student and alumni participation in sponsored activities such as fundraisers.

Fundraisers are a time-honored way for businesses in the education industry to raise the money necessary for sports teams, field trips and other extracurricular activities. Traditional fundraiser activities include: bake sales, car washes, candy sales and letter writing campaigns. After deciding on what type of fundraiser to hold, generating buzz through word of mouth and distributing custom school promotional products are two key elements to ensure the fundraiser’s success. Another way to draw crowds to a fundraiser is to distribute these imprinted items to everyone who participates. No matter how you choose to use them, custom school promotional products are a great way to raise money for your school while at the same time, providing students with the necessary branded apparel, pens and rulers.
