Custom Santa Hats and Matchbooks

With the holiday season upon us, there are holiday parties and gift giving everywhere you look. ‘Tis the season for gifting to others while advertising your business! There are two simple items that can easily do both: custom Santa hats and matchbooks.
These items are often overlooked and not given the credit they deserve. Who wouldn’t be excited to get a Santa hat? Both Santa hats and matchbooks can be customized with your company logo, name, or design. These are great for getting your name out there, are highly affordable, and are easy to hand out at parties.
Leaving a bowl full of custom matchbooks at the front desk of your office is sure to draw attention, and people will likely grab one as they pass by it. Handing out custom Santa hats will also be highly appreciated by employees, and will bring Christmas spirit into the office!
If you’ve been looking for the perfect custom items, look no further! Custom Santa hats and matchbooks are great gifts for yourself, friends, family, and even coworkers. Still doubtful? Here are some reasons why you should consider them.
They get your name (and logo) out there
In the midst of a pandemic, you’re probably looking everywhere for ways to promote your business. Custom items of any kind are great ways to get your company’s name and logo out there. More importantly, Santa hats and matchbooks are the perfect way to spread a little holiday cheer.
Santa hats are worn pretty much everywhere around Christmas time, and people often carry matchbooks with them in their bags and purses. This makes it extremely easy to take advantage of some convenient advertising!
Whether your custom Santa hat is worn by someone attending a holiday party or while they’re doing some last minute Christmas shopping, that’s free advertising for you! Someone lights their favorite Christmas scented candle using a match from your custom matchbook - free advertising. You’d be surprised how many people will see your brand this way.
Finding ways to locally advertise for your business can seem like a difficult task, but it doesn’t have to be! Seasonal items are often well-received by all recipients because they are festive. Useful items like matchbooks work well also because it’s likely they’ll need a match at some point during the holidays.
Both are affordable
Another concern businesses have when searching for PR and promotional items is cost. Advertising your business doesn’t always come cheap. Custom Santa hats and matchbooks, however, are affordable items that you can take advantage of.
Items like these are not only cost-efficient for your business, but useful for everyone! There’s no need to break the bank for promotional items when you have such simple and inexpensive options at your disposal.
Both Santa hats and matchbooks can be bought in bulk, and are relatively inexpensive to purchase and customize. It’s highly unlikely someone will say, “No thanks, I don’t want a Santa hat to get into the Christmas spirit.” Your investment won’t be wasted because someone will always have a use for a Santa hat and/or matchbook.
Easy gifts to hand out for parties
If you’re planning any kind of holiday office party, a great way to show your appreciation to employees for their work is by giving out gifts. Next to a holiday bonus, free gifts from your employer is probably the best Christmas present.
A quick and easy gift bag could be thrown together with Santa hats, matchbooks, candy, and other festive items for the season.
Gifts or goodie bags for holiday parties don’t need to be expensive. You can never go wrong if you give away useful items and festive treats. It’s quick and easy, and will undoubtedly put a smile on people’s faces.
The Santa hats will be especially well received, and will likely be worn by them all season. When employers take the time to put together something for their workers, they remember that, and it also boosts morale for the whole office.
Santa hats are a timeless tradition
The best thing about Santa hats is that they won’t go out of style.
Santa hats have been a popular item to wear during the holidays for years, and that isn’t going to change anytime soon. Often when people purchase Santa hats, they hold on to them to wear for the next year’s holidays.
We offer our custom Santa hats in a variety of colors and materials, and we even have kids sizes! If you want one with candy cane stripes, we’ve got it. Looking for a Santa hat with cheetah print? We’ve got that too. The possibilities are endless!
If you put your company name or logo on Santa hats and pass them out at your office holiday party, that’s free advertising every time they decide to wear the Santa hat.
Better yet, if they keep and rewear the Santa hat for future holiday seasons, that’s multiple Christmas seasons worth of advertising! It really is a gift that keeps on giving.
Matchbooks are always useful
Let’s be honest, you probably have at least one candle at home. If you don’t, you’ll probably get at least one as a gift this Christmas. What does that mean? You need a match to light it!
The beauty of custom matchbooks is that they are extremely useful, and they are perfectly sized. No one wants to keep a giant box of matches in their bag. Matchbook is perfectly sized, and won’t take up too much space anywhere.
These are perfect for office party gift bags, and can easily be tossed in with another gift as a space filler. No one is going to complain about getting a matchbook in their gift bag, and they are much more likely to use it than they are to throw it away.
Like the Santa hats, anyone you give these to will likely be carrying them around for a while, which means an indefinite amount of advertising every time they pull one out. Some of the best gifts are the convenient and useful ones, and matchbooks definitely fall into that category.
Keep it festive, keep it convenient
The biggest, and most important, pro of these custom gift ideas is that they spread holiday cheer while remaining convenient for the recipient.
Many people need matches to light their holiday scented candles this time of year. Also, who doesn’t love a cute Santa hat to celebrate the season? We all shamelessly wear a Santa hat while decorating the tree, so why not show some company pride while doing so?
No matter who you give these items to or where you do it, the recipients are bound to love them, and will definitely get some good use out of them. The best part is that they won’t be basic or generic, because you get to customize them too, and give out something truly unique and special!
