Custom Umbrellas Under $10

Ok, is it even possible to have a custom umbrella under $10?  Yes, through Adco Marketing we have many options particularly if you can go with a custom folding umbrella.  However how can you tell what is the best style for you?  Sometimes you get what you pay for...  So below are some umbrella styles and we give you the honest truth - the good and the bad! 

 

The Barrister umbrella - our most popular selling, and the one we grab the most often when we need to run to the car.  While under $10 does not get you the auto open/auto close feature, it still gets you push button open which is what most of us need when running in the rain.  It is small enough to fit in a briefcase, or stick a bit out of your purse.  (unless you're one of those soccer mom purse types, then it will fit right in!)  This custom folding umbrella does have a plastic handle, so for long walks it's not the most comfortable - see our comfort grip handle umbrellas for that kind of option.  It is also just the right size for one person - if you add a child as well they will get a bit wet.  However it is also fine for a child to carry as well - not too heavy.  It is a pain to have a promotional umbrella that breaks in the wind, with all your packages and your child in tow!  So trust us, we have tested these and they hold up well!

 

If you have another dollar - and really it's just up to around $6.75 each, your clients will appreciate the Revolution umbrellas - now with rubber handles.  That extra dollar will allow this custom umbrella with rubber grip  to be used for longer distances, and a bonus that when the wind whips up you and your customers will be prepared since this one is "vented".  

 

Which brings me to our next point - sometimes those really cool awesome 62" arc giant golf umbrellas aren't exactly what we need for "emergencies" - those will agree who got out of their cars, in the rain, and get drenched while opening the trunk for the emergency full golf size umbrella.  So actually your clients (and many of those shopping at Adco Marketing) may see your logo most often with these under $10 sized options.  These under 10 promotional umbrellas aren't fancy enough that you would cry if you lose it, but functional enough that it gets you a lot of logo views (though it's worth the extra dollar to logo the strap because most of the time umbrellas stay closed...)

 

So that's my feedback on the under $10 custom umbrellas by Adco Marketing.  We have more styles available as well, so call us for the best advice.
