If you are in the hotel and food service industries, promotional umbrellas are something you should never go without. They are perfect marketing tools that you can make full use of to promote your business or to enhance customer experience. Beyond their practical benefits, umbrellas offer countless imprint possibilities: the handle, sleeve, and both sides of the canopy can be customized with your corporate logo or any colorful pattern.



One of the many ways you can improve your customer service is to make sure promotional umbrellas are on standby when a client is in need of one. Take your valet service a notch higher by making sure attendants have promotional umbrellas on hand when a guest alights from his vehicle under pouring rain or the unbearable heat of the sun. Not only will attendants get an extra tip for this service, it will also leave a good impression with clients, because a company that painstakingly takes note of small details such as providing an umbrella when there is a need for one must take customer service seriously.

Hotels, resorts, inns, and bed-and-breakfasts will find that having promotional umbrellas on standby is beneficial to their business. Nobody wants to come up empty-handed when a hotel guest requests for an umbrella at the reception. Place umbrellas in conspicuous places such as the hotel lobby or at the entrance so guests have them within easy reach when the need arises. Similarly, housekeeping should make it a custom to leave promotional folding umbrellas in bedside drawers or hanging inside the bedroom closet so guests can take one with them when they are out.

Golf clubs should also equip their caddies with promotional umbrellas so that when the heat becomes unbearable or the rain starts to pour, an umbrella is within easy reach. Real estate companies will also find promotional umbrellas as fitting giveaways to prospects and clients during site visits. By imprinting their name and contact number on visible spots on these promotional items, real estate agents will be assured that prospects can contact them right away when they have finally decided to make a purchase.
