There is no end to the possibilities when it comes to utilising printed t-shirts. There are a million and one uses for them in everyday life. Perhaps the most stereotypical uses for them is for groups of young adults jetting off on holiday, as a souvenir, or a way of showing allegiance to a sports team or university. However, what often goes unnoticed is the large amount of practical uses for them in the world of business.

A carefully designed branded t-shirt can go a long way towards helping promote a business and spread the word about a specific product or service. Here are a few quick tips to help you get the most out of your printed t-shirts in business.

Retail Uniforms

It’s extremely important for employees in a retail environment to stand out in a crowd and be easily identifiable for any customers with queries. Not only does it make them easy to spot, but also gives them an air of professionalism and smartness, which is always a good image to have associated with your business. These members of staff are your connection with customers on the shop floor, and it’s important they make the right impression.

Delivery Uniforms

Again, the connection between your company and the outside world lies with these people. As a result, it is important for them to be presentable and make a good impression on all those that they see. These t-shirts are also a great way to put customers’ minds at rest too. People are much more likely to answer the door if they recognise the brand on the visitor’s t-shirt, as opposed to being cautious about welcoming an unsolicited visitor.

Public Events

Wearing customised t-shirts at any public event is a great way to promote your brand for free. Any sort of events like an industry seminar, sales pitch or even a charity event should be exploited to help your brand get as much exposure as possible. This is an effective way to get publicity, even more so if you design them with a catchy or memorable slogan or picture. This will hopefully last long in the memory of anyone who sees the t-shirts and they will always associate your company with the t-shirts.

Free Gifts

Sometimes the simplest ideas are the most effective, and it should go without saying that giving your customers free stuff will keep them happy. A free t-shirt is a cheap and novel way to reward customer loyalty as well as turning your customers into a walking, talking advertisement for your company. This way your customers can easily spread the word about your company without even having to open their mouth.
