More Ideas For Distributing Promotional Items

Another time a lot of people will gather is for races – both running and bike races. A lot of races like to provide souvenirs, but it's usually down to sponsors to provide these items to protect the cost of the entry fees.

A popular item with running is always the Promotional Cotton T-Shirt. From £1.20 each, these can easily be distributed to all finishers, with marshals and helpers being given the surplus.

Put the name of the race, the date and your logo onto the t-shirt and pass to the organisers to distribute at the finish. Being a runner, I can recommend SMALL logos rather than the typical huge logo on a t-shirt. These are more likely to be kept and worn. Coloured t-shirts go down even better.

One local race likes to give the children in their race Promotional Badges instead of t-shirts. I know my daughter has kept her collection of these, so they can be kept for ages.

Another local race gives out Promotional Mugs and these are really popular with the runners. They usually get a mention on the forums after the race as they are so much more popular then t-shirts. But for a small race (under 500) they can be a lot more expensive than t-shirts.
