For example, an elderly member of the work force in a CEO position would be slightly more interested in a traditional and conventional mug made of bone china or even perhaps a ceramic mug. A trendy plastic mug will never catch their attention or come up to their liking. In contrast, when targeting the younger work force, designer promotional mugs will be much more effective than their conventional counterparts will.

Another quite interesting idea is adding a photo or image to your mug creating photo mugs, which can be slightly more alluring than your standard logo mug. Obviously, you don’t want the branding on the mug to be too overpowering, because we’re fairly sure your clients and staff don’t want to be feeling like they are walking advertisements for your company. Instead, how about trying to make your clients feel proud of having one of your mugs in their hands?
