Armoured vehicle custom made stress balls
Everyone loves receiving promotional stress balls.
Promotional stress toys may be low cost business gifts but they are popular enough to make a person stop in their tracks and head straight for your trade show stand. I have personally seen this happen on many occasions.
Stress toys also have the added bonus of being light weight and easy to put in the post. Receiving such an eye-catching promotional gift will make people notice your brand.
Have you ever consider using promotional stress relievers to promote your business? One of my customers was at first sceptical but his stress ball promotion was tremendously successful!
Following is his story…
Kevin worked for a company that produced the armour needed to manufacture armoured vehicles. He loved stress balls and actually had a few that were given to him by his suppliers. He was struggling, however, to think of a way they could promote his business.
His armour products just happened to be used to produce an armoured desert vehicle which was famous with people interested in such things. The armoured vehicle looked like a tank but instead of having a row of wheels on each side, it had four sets of three wheels and it didn’t have a gun.
The armoured vehicle was said to be the fastest vehicle in difficult desert conditions.
I recommended that he have a miniature version of the tank-car manufactured as a stress ball. He loved the idea and after getting permission from the manufacturer we went to work.
Kevin send images of the armoured vehicle from as many angles as possible and then sat back while I my design team used the photographs to create a model.
Within a couple of days he had a clay visual to approve. It looked just like the armoured vehicle his company helped produce and he was over the moon with the results!
Once the design was approved, we went to work creating 3000 miniature armoured stress balls vehicles. Instead of being beige like the actual product, he chose to have them manufactured in grey with blue print – his company colours.
Within four weeks we had delivered 3000 custom made stress relievers which he used at a large armour exhibition in Las Vegas – yes there really are armour exhibitions!
The squishy toys helped promote what his company was capable of doing. Most of the visitors to the show knew the famous armoured vehicle but they did not necessarily know Kevin’s company played a major part in its manufacture.
Now they did. Soon he was enjoying an increase in business beyond his wildest beliefs.
Have you ever considered custom made stress balls to promote your products? Made to order stress balls are a unique and eye-catching way to promote your brand. They also happen to be quite inexpensive!
