Advertise with a paper drinking cup

If you have a restaurant, coffee shop or some sort of beverage outlet, it is safe to assume that you will need beverage containers. Usually in restaurants this means glass based products. However, a rapidly growing alternate medium is the paper drinking cup.

The paper drinking cup has grown in popularity due to two main reasons:

• 1. It is environmentally friendly as it can be easily recycled. It also represents no threat to the environment if someone throws it on the ground as it is easily biodegrades.
• 2. You can advertise on it cheaply. Printing on paper offers far more possibilities while staying cheap.

Until now the advertising angle was mainly only visible in custom paper coffee cups. Franchises like Starbucks and McDonalds have made great use of this method of advertising. What you should realize is that when someone carries your cup and walks about, it is a mobile advertisement for your establishment.Making the most out of this should be your aim as it is completely free.

If you want to know how much this will cost you, check out a paper or plastic cup manufacturer online. You should be able to find plenty of them and check out their costs. Usually they will have standard packages relating to the number of colors that will be used in printing the artwork on the cups. However, you should have no trouble working out a deal with them if you have any specialized requirements. Ask for samples before you proceed as this will help you avoid a lot of trouble later on.
