Why Flags Are Still Important To A Promotional Campaign
To answer the above in the simplest of terms, Flags are one of the best promotional products at demanding attention and attracting footfall!
Coming in many different shapes and sizes makes Flags one of the most cost effective and adaptable ways to advertise your business. Whether your customer is planning a summer event, sports event, festival or exhibition stand, a Flag is a staple marketing product to have. Standing tall going crazy with the breeze (if you’re lucky) guarantees to snatch the attention of those passing by.
Allow me to dive in further.
Which Flag To Choose?
When it comes to Flags, people instantly think of a country Flag, tall pole with a small shaped Flag. Although, yes this type of Flag is available, there are so many more! It all depends on what type or where your customer is planning on advertising.
- At events, expos, festivals, indoor business premises etc. The best type would be our Standard Feather Flags or Standard Teardrop Flags. With their unique design either one of these are sure to attract attention from passers by. They both come in 3 different sizes, quick and easy to assemble with a carry case for the poles and can be printed double sided. Once bought, to keep fresh and up to date you can simply just order new graphics and change it over.
- For outside premises, roadside advertising etc. The best type would be one our larger Flags, such as our Wind Dancer (sounds funky I know!). They stand tall and attract attention from far wide! A bit like when you see the McDonalds big M that they have in front every branch. Having one of these tall and sleek Flags will attract attention from those further away that generally a standard Flag wouldn’t be able to do.
Bases
One thing to remember when it comes to choosing what Base suits your customer best, we have a number of different bases suitable for all surface areas so it’s good to know where you will be placing the flag before hand. I have outlined everything for you below in a neat little grid!

| Square Base | X | X | X |

Ease of use
Assembling these Flags couldn’t be easier, you choose the pole, choose the base and simply put them together when they arrive and once the event has finished, disassemble, pack away and store for the next event. And of course, order fresh graphics. All of our flags come with assembly instructions, but if you need help just get in touch with your account manager and they will talk you through the process.
Cost
Before recommending a particular Flag to your customers, the first thing you need to consider is their budget. Although I am not going to tell you how much we sell these for (you have to get in contact with us for that!) we know they are a cost effective product, and there are different options for different budgets. One thing we know for certain is that flags will not impact the marketing budget by much, leaving you room to add other promotional items. The main reason for this is that they do not have to be used for only one promotion. You can easily change the graphics and transport to any other place, leaving you with a lasting marketing tool for your customers in which they will come back only to you to change the graphics.
I am sure by now you realise the potential and benefits of a Flag and will be recommending it next to your customers leaving you to do just one more thing. Pick up the phone and give us a call and one of account managers can run you through all the specifics, set up your account and then you start selling flags in no time.
