Nothing beats a free goodie bag, and what better place to give away tote bags full of all the essentials than on the first night of a cruise? If your company is looking to get their name out there, putting together a cruise survival kit in a tote bag is a great idea.
Just a few ideas to put in your tote bag to hand out to all those lucky cruise-goers: a towel, sunscreen, sunglasses, a sports bottle, a baseball cap, an oversized T-shirt to keep away an unwanted sunburn and a disposable camera. All of these things would go perfectly in a tote bag. And what's even more perfect is that you can have all these items imprinted with your company logo, which means even more advertising for you! By handing out free tote bags, you will establish a relationship with the customers, and that will allow for future business deals. It will allow customers to know that you value them, which is always important in business.
You can also put together a tote bag of goodies to give away as a raffle prize during the cruise. To add to your product, consider going in with the cruise line to see if they will donate some free tickets or a discount coupon. That way, your tote bag will be in even higher demand, and more people will want to see what other goodies it contains. Then you get even more advertising.
The best thing about splashing your product all over your tote bags and other products is that people from the cruise will always associate your product with the great time they had. The tote bags will also come in handy once they've returned home and need to carry different items from place to place. Even though they received your company's gift on the cruise, they will continue to use it long after they're off the ship!
