In today’s fast moving world promotional merchandise has to keep up with trends and specific client requirements. There is no denying that the most successful development in the IT world is the introduction of the i-phone and i-pad. The knock-on effect into many industries such as the promotional products industry is quite remarkable and so the demand is very high.

Our Favourite Items from the London Olympics Merchandise

Maria — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 00:27:09 +0000

As you can imagine working in the promotional products industry means that we pay close attention to popular large merchandise programs from around the world. We figured that there probably isn’t any larger programs than the 2012 London Olympics so we have been paying that particular merchandise program some extra attention.

The team at JEM Promotional Products decided to take some time to select our favourite merchandise items that we agree are pretty good and we think we are probably pretty hard markers!

The choices were varied and reflected our own particular interests so there was no clear stand out merchandise product that we all thought was a “must have” as a keepsake for the 2012 London Olympics. Maybe that is the only criticism that we can think of but overall the standard was very high.

I guess we all can’t help but compare it to Sydney’s 2000 Olympics which will be embed in our memories for the rest of our lives as the new millennium was celebrated.

Sydney 2000 Olympics

We all still remember the interactive part the some of the merchandise items played in the opening ceromony as well as the very Aussie feel to some of the merchandise which ranged from fly swatters through to torches and glow sticks.

Sydney 2000 Olympics

The Sydney 2000 licensing programme generated nearly US$500 million in retail sales of Olympic merchandise,
becoming a retail phenomenon by the time of the Games and one of the most powerful brands in the Australian marketplace.

One of the most popular merchandise items for the Sydney 2000 Olympics was the Olympic pin. Enough Sydney 2000 Olympic pins were sold in Australia to provide every household in Australia with a collection of eight pins. We wonder what the favourites for the London Olympics will turn out to be?

So here are some of our favourite merchandise products from the London 2012 Olympics:

London 2012 Olympics Pins

London 2012 Paralympic Games commemorative teddy bear

London 2012 Football Souvenirs

London 2012 Mascots

London Olympic Mascots…love them or hate them?

Maria — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 00:38:02 +0000

At JEM Promotional Products we see lots of merchandise daily but we are nevertheless always on the look out for new and wonderful promotional items. Naturally, we have been especially interested in the London Olympics merchandise range and especially how it stands up to the world’s scrutiny it has attracted.

London Olympic Mascots

I guess our main area of interest is from the perspective of what would we create if we had that account and possibly the huge budget attached to it. Could we do any better? We think that is the most important question for any company in the promotional products industry and those who pride themselves in their ability to deliver on a client’s unique requirements. It is a tough one to answer and somehow I can’t help but wonder if the creators have tried a little too hard in the selection of the mascots to represent the London Olympic games.

London Olympic Mascots

That area was certainly what created the most interest here in the JEM office. Perplexed faces stared at the computer monitors when we finally saw the Olympic mascots. We were really a bit puzzled as to their relevance to the London Olympics and whether their message will easily be interpreted. Maybe our distance from London may have a bearing in our lack of understanding after all we are in Sydney, Australia so you can’t get much further away than that. Well, let’s hope so because if the rest of the world feels the same way then I can’t help but think that the brief has not been met by the creators of the Olympic mascots.

Blobs: Wenlock, named after the Shropshire town, and Mandeville after the hospital are the 2012 London Olympics mascots

The feeling I get is that the final product and message is just a little too abstract for most people to relate to and to easily understand. Maybe I speak with the memory of the Sydney Olympics in the year 2000 still fresh on my mind where the three mascots were chosen from our native animals. Adults and children easily understood and recognised the animals selected to be used as mascots and could easily make the connection with Australia’s unique wildlife.

Sydney Olympic Mascots

I guess it’s easier to criticise when looking from the outside in and I do believe the challenge would have been great but a wonderful opportunity to showcase London and it’s rich history may have been lost. One can only hope that the mascots will grow in popularity as we get closer to the Olympic games. Somehow the continued exposure may serve to embed these misunderstood blobs deeply in our minds. If they do that then we can say they have been a success!

Please contact the team at JEM Promotional Products on (02)82051334 or enquiries@jempp.com.au if you are in the process of organising unique, custom made promotional items. We believe that even can assist you in creating promotional items that represent your company, charity or organisation and that will be as effective as possible in exposing your brand or logo to your target market.

St Patrick’s Day Continues to Grow in Popularity

Maria — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:47:56 +0000

In Australia, St Patrick’s Day celebrations have taken place on 17 March since 1810, when the then Governor, Lachlan Macquarie, declared the date an official day of celebration for the Irish and those of Irish heritage. 200 years later, we are still celebrating with an annual street parade and family day on the third Sunday of March - this year it is on Sunday 18th March 2012. The Sydney St Patrick’s Day Parade is the second largest in the world, after the New York celebrations. More information available through the organizers: media@stpatricksday.org.au

Player Registration Packs

Maria — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:17:04 +0000

Christmas is now a fading memory but many of us are still holding on to our New Year’s resolutions of getting fit in 2012. Joining a sporting team is often a good motivator and will get many to address their fitness levels whilst having some fun. Many clubs are aware that they are competing with each other and sometimes may need to consider ways to attract players.

Putting together a Player Registration Pack may assist in not only attracting players but using the items to promote the club and sponsors for the season. Sponsors will see the promotional value when they consider that their target market will enjoy continued exposure to their company logo and details throughout the sporting season.

At JEM Promotional products we have put together many Player Registration Packs so we understand the importance of each item. Each item must be able to withstand the demands put on them by athletes and that they need to last the distance.

Player Registration Packs

Please contact the team at JEM Promotional Products on (02)82051334 or enquiries@jempp.com.au for more information on our Players Registration Packs which can be branded with logos and artwork.

Is Valentine’s Day just for Lovers?

Maria — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 01:25:31 +0000

Valentine’s Day has traditionally been a day for lovers to exchange greeting cards, roses (especially red roses) jewellery as well as a wide range range of gifts. A declaration of love on this day is often seen as an incredibly romantic gesture so many will pluck up the courage and let their feelings known.

Valentine’s Day may have initially been a day for lovers but now it is an industry in itself. In the corporate world and in particular for marketers, it can be seen as an opportunity to capitalize on this popular day by using Gift With Purchase (GWP) marketing techniques in the hope that it will appeal to the romantic side in all of us. Opportunistic you might say and the answer would have to simply be”Yes”. It makes perfect sense to use this day to advertise and promote your company’s products or services.

Australia Day Merchandise

Maria — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 05:08:49 +0000

Nowadays, there is an enormous sense of pride displayed on Australia Day with many of us celebrating this great day in some way across this great nation of ours. Backyard BBQ’s is by far the most common way to celebrate but many companies are now also running corporate events and inviting good clients for an informal get together early in the calendar year. Our Australia Day Merchandise can be co-branded with company logos creating a positive corporate image.

Australia Day , celebrated annually on 26 January, is the official national day of Australia, commemorating the establishment of the first British settlement on the continent of Australia . The date is that of the foundation of a British penal colony at Sydney Cove on Port Jackson, New South Wales in 1788, by Captain Arthur Phillip, in his capacity as the first Governor of New South Wales. Australia Day is an official public holiday in all states and territories of Australia.

Australia Day is also a fantastic opportunity to entertain overseas delegates and to show them the Aussie way of life. Souvenirs can also be a lovely way to celebrate this special day so the right product is very important when considering gifts.

QR Codes Provide Innovation for Branded Promotional Products

Maria — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 03:26:24 +0000

Many of us love it when we feel that we know what we are doing and understand what is required to get the job done properly. Unfortunately, with ever changing factors and circumstances we find ourselves continuously in ’student’ mode. Our roles change regularly as do our tasks and in particular how we do business.

Marketing has traditionally been an industry that by nature looks to find difference either by necessity or requirement. The promotional products industry being so closely related to the marketing industry is often the vehicle for these changes. Promotional items provided a physical item for illustrating campaign messages and for targeting niche markets. There are many benefits proved by using promotional products and by far the most important is brand recognition as well as marketing message longevity.

In the last ten years we have seen many new products and lots of ways to brand them but of late we have see a new trend which came to us from the car industry as car manufacturers used bar codes to keep track of cars in production. This new trend is called Quick Response or QR Codes and it looks to be changing our industry as no other development has for a long time. It offers interactive connection ability between companies and customers that assists both parties to achieve a positive outcomes.

Competitions with QR Code Printed Merchandise

Lots of useful information can be saved on the QR Code and the element of curiosity really motivates customers to use their smart phones to read the QR code with a simple App from the App store. QR Codes direct customers to company websites where unique pages can be created that contain information with good and useful content. Catalogues and brochures are a thing of the past as we rely more and more on our mobile phones so it makes perfect sense to utilise this new technology.

So the smart thing to do is to include a QR Code when branding merchandise with your logo or artwork. Use the promotional item as a means to create interest and then drive your niche market to your website. Measurable promotional success can be monitored by tracking your clients interest each time they scan the QR Code so the initial hard work is done. The rest is up to the content used on the website!

Please contact the team from JEM Promotional Products on (02)82051334 or enquiries@jempp for more information on QR Codes and how to use them successfully with promotional products.
