Personalized coffee mugs really make you stand out from the crowd and will help unique events, gatherings, and high profile customers feel extra special. When you put the name of an organization or event on something as well used and often seen as a coffee mug, you memorialize it and keep it at the forefront of peoples minds. This is a relatively simple and inexpensive way to both thank the people important to you and to make sure they don’t forget you.

There are a couple of approaches to take with personalized coffee mugs. On the smallest scale, you could just get a single mug made for yourself with your favorite saying, quotation, photo or other picture. This would be a constant reminder or inspiration to help you get through the day.

You can also build a little more cohesiveness around a group event either in your personal life or with a work related event. If you’re getting a group together to raise money through a physical challenge event, like a triathlon, bike ride, run or walk, having personalized coffee mugs will make the event more fun and can even attract more people to your team. People like to be part of something special, and having coffee mugs personalized with a team name and event date make them special. Having a “limited edition” of anything makes that item inherently more valuable and if the only way they can be had is through participation, you will get more team members. You will be surprised at what people will do for small rewards, especially if they seem “free”.

Personalized coffee mugs also make great gifts of gratitude. If you can come up with a reason to give a coffee mug as a gift that does not coincide with a holiday it will be more of a surprise. This little surprise will be more treasured and appreciated than if it comes during a holiday time when gift exchanges are done as a matter of course and can seem more like an obligation than a true customer appreciation.

If you gift giving is going to coincide with a gift exchange holiday, consider doing something a little differently with your personalized coffee mugs. Most companies will just put their company name and log on the mug and leave it at that. That can make sense from a practical point of view, as the design can be reused over many different years, during any time of year. But this generic quality certainly won’t make your customer or other recipient feel special and will be an obligatory expense rather than something that seems a little more fun or celebratory.

Instead, make the coffee mug a little more personalized by marking the date, season or event that it commemorates. This puts it closer to the category of “collectors edition” and will be more highly treasured. The more unique you make the design, the more valuable it becomes for the recipient. Consider having an artist create a new design for each year, season or event.

For customers who spend a lot of money with you, you can even consider adding their information to the mug design. This can show your true partnership, especially if you have several made and distributed throughout the management and other key people of your favorite client’s business.
