Ready to accessorize your fans with branded swag? Read on for some fun promotional product inspiration for the summer!
Rio 2016 Brand Protection Awareness
No doubt, the U.S. Olympic Committee, (along with the International Olympic Committee) have already lined up some pretty big sponsors of the games (Coca-Cola, Atos, General Electric, McDonald’s, Toyota, VISA); so it’s important to note that companies who are not official partners need to be cautious with promotions (or they could face some hefty fines). Although brands are not allowed to use the Rio 2016 logo in the production of product or material (t-shirts, mugs, pins, etc.) for promotional, institutional and commercial purposes there are still plenty of opportunities to reach consumers.
Summertime Lifestyle Merchandise
As one of the most tightly policed sponsorship events, the Olympics can pose a challenge for non-sponsor brands, but focusing on timely product promotions will offer the chance to be top of mind during those key moments. Although you can’t use an image of the Olympic rings image in your creative, you can still make a winning statement with unique products that carry your brand’s voice outside the stadium.
To capture the essence and spirit of Rio, think about various lifestyle merchandise like water bottles, sunglasses, sunscreen, beach towels, waterproof bags, beach balls, the Fun Sun Duffel, you name it… we can create it.
