They’re really useful!
With an average of 156.2 days rainfall each year in the U.K umbrellas aren’t just for avoiding the drip, drip, drop of the April Showers. Umbrellas are one of the most useful products anyone can own and with ‘usefullness’ being the top quality people look for in the ‘perfect promotional gift’, as found by the British Promotional Merchandise Association, it is no surprise that 83% of consumers say they would keep a promotional umbrella for this reason.
Branded Umbrellas make a big impression
In fact branded umbrellas are kept on average for 14 months which is nearly double that of other promotional products which on average are only kept for 8 months! Being kept and used so much is great at increasing brand exposure as it is not only the recipient who sees your branding but anyone in their vicinity when using it. Over a promotionally branded umbrellas lifespan they will generate a staggering 1,300 impressions. This makes branded umbrellas an incredibly cost efficient promotional product with few comparative promotional products or advertising methods that garner soo many low cost impressions over such a lengthy period of time!
Umbrellas have a universal appeal
Whilst they are an incredibly universal promotional product they do seem to be valued more by certain demographics. Whilst there isn’t a significant gender difference, females are slightly more likely to own a promotional branded umbrella than males (28% v 22%). A more significant trend in branded umbrellas is the the increase in ownership correlating with an increase in age with 18-34 year olds 15% less likely to own a promotional umbrella compared to those aged 65+. This said, as with gender, their appeal is still broad in all age groups 35 and over.
