5 MOMENTS THAT ARE BETTER WITH BRANDED MERCH

Branded merchandise can add a layer of fun and excitement to various moments in life. Yep, branded merch can be a real vibe! Today we’re looking at five fabulous occasions that are just begging for a little extra flair, a splash of pizzazz, and a pinch of merch magic. Get ready to explore the wonderful ways in which merch takes life from ‘ho-hum’ to ‘heck yeah!’

Here are five examples of how merch just makes things better.

1. Your first day in a new job

First impressions count! When introducing someone to your organisation, you want to create some excitement about it. And a branded welcome kit is the perfect way to surprise and delight new hires. A thoughtfully curated welcome kit can include items like company-branded notebooks, backpacks, branded headwear and apparel, pens, water bottles, and even a personalised welcome letter from the CEO. It helps new hires feel valued and part of the team from the get-go!

2. Any concert or music gig

Of course, attending a concert or music festival featuring your favourite artist or band becomes even more enjoyable with branded merch. Wearing a t-shirt or hoodie with the artist’s logo or tour dates can enhance the sense of community among fans and make the experience more memorable. Swifty fan, anyone? But there are other things that can make these moments better. Think free branded sunscreen when it’s hot, or branded ponchos for those unpredictable events (especially in Melbourne IYKYK).

3. Attending a Sports Game

Sporting events are prime opportunities for branded merchandise. Whether it’s wearing a team jersey, waving a foam finger, or sipping from a branded sports bottle, these items can help fans feel more connected to their favourite teams and create a festive atmosphere. Check out the super cool Dolphin Fins we made for our mates at NRL Dolphins.

Maybe it’s a local sports team you are supporting at your local footy oval. Buying a branded beanie, for example, shows your support, raises money for your local club and keeps your ears toasty on those freezing winter mornings! Everyone loves merch at a sporting event! It could be a clap banner to show your support at the cricket, glow-in-the-dark merch for nighttime events, or maybe a pair of cool slides to hand out to race daygoers who have been wearing heels all day!

4. Doing a Bloody Long Walk

Charity Runs/Walks are soaring in popularity. Coastrek, for example, is a “bloody long walk” and Australia’s most iconic charity hiking challenge for women. Sporting branded merchandise like colourful socks, headbands, or even capes can add a playful element to charity runs or walks, making participants feel more motivated and united in their cause. Check out the cool Tote Bags and Drink Bottles we did for Carrie Bickmore’s Beanies 4 Brain Cancer.

5. Office Moving Day

Last but not least, we have the not-so-glamorous office moving day. But fear not, because merch can turn it into a day of fun and excitement! Welcome your team to the new office with custom goodies like water bottles, notebooks, and keychains. It’s like a treasure hunt, but the treasure is the office itself!

So, there you have it – five moments that are simply better with merch. Whether it’s your first day on the job, a concert with friends, a thrilling sports game, a charity walk, or even moving to a new office, merch is the secret ingredient to level up the excitement.
