Hi there, I’m Mike. I love looking at and comparing gear, tools, clothing, espresso machines, and other things like that. Do you? I think it sort of comes with the territory of being a Graphic Designer for over 14 years. I started out working for Carhartt–a workwear clothing company–then transitioned to teaching at a small college. As a professor, I teach students to create, analyze, critique, and look at color palettes from time to time.
When purchasing water bottles for your company, there are several factors to consider [ 7 to be exact ].
- Purpose: What is the purpose of the water bottles? Are they for employees to use at their desks, for visitors and guests, or for events and outdoor activities? Different purposes may require different types of water bottles.
- Material: Water bottles can be made of various materials, including plastic, glass, stainless steel, and aluminum. Each material has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of durability, safety, and eco-friendliness.
- Size: Consider the size of the water bottles you need. Smaller bottles may be more convenient for employees to carry around, while larger bottles may be more suitable for events or conferences.
- Design and branding: You may want to choose water bottles that reflect your company’s branding or that have a unique design that sets them apart from other water bottles. This can help promote your company and create a more professional image.
- Cost: Consider the cost of the water bottles, as well as any additional costs for customization or shipping. You want to make sure you are getting a good value for your money while staying within your budget.
- Eco-friendliness: If your company is concerned about the environment, you may want to choose water bottles that are eco-friendly, such as those made from recycled materials or that are easily recyclable.
- Longevity: What will your water bottles be used for initially, but just as important, how might they be used later? Will they stay around after you’ve handed them out and continue to be used by your organization, friends and fans of your brand? Water bottles have a tendency to stay around for a long time after their initial purpose and can keep reinforcing your message for years to come.
Understanding the timeline of your order
The timeline for the production of custom water bottles can vary depending on the supplier, the materials used, and the complexity of the design. However, generally speaking, the production process for custom water bottles can be broken down into several steps:
- Quote Request: The first step in our process is for you to request a quote of the product you would like to order. This is all in one pricing. A mockup, printer set-up, proof and shipping is all included in this price. What you see is what you get.
- Mockup/Design: Next, we’ll create a mockup of your design, so you can get an idea of what it will look like in action.
- Order: When you have approved the proof, we will send you an online payment form before we move into production.
- Proof: After you’ve chosen your bottle, you’ll submit your artwork and we will create a free proof for you. At this step, you can see if colors match with your design and bottle and check on the size and placement of your design.
- Production: Timelines for production can vary depending on the season and availability of certain products. Summer tends to be a busy time of year. Production time can take anywhere between 7-14 days.
- Delivery: We offer free shipping on all orders. Typical shipping times vary from 2-7 days. Let us know well in advance of your timeline, so that we can get your order to you on time.
These are three water bottles (one mug), that I would order.
