Custom Glassware for Bars and Restaurants



The service industry has taken a really big hit from the recession, but those establishments that remain find themselves in a position to really set a firm hold in their location. Though many establishments have folded, competition is still fierce in the service industry as new establishments are taking advantage of low lease rates on commercial property. New and existing bar and restaurants need an edge on the competition and that is why they should get custom glassware items. Customizable glassware items allow establishments like bars and restaurants to serve drinks in glasses that have custom printed logos on them. This adds legitimacy to your business and gives you the option of selling these glasses to avid customers.

Restaurants and bars require different kinds of drinkware items. Restaurants typically need drinking glasses, wine glasses and coffee mugs depending on what’s available on their menu. Bars require drinking glasses, beer mugs, pint glasses, cocktail glasses and much more depending on what types of drinks they serve. Customizing these items can really help when it comes to customer retention rates and customer satisfaction. Every restaurant and bar is also a brand with a logo, these custom glasses promote that brand and help get the word out about an establishment.

Restaurants and bars, especially those in the tourist industry, can gain huge profits from selling their glassware items. Selling custom items also serves as a promotional venture because it creates brand promotion and allows others to see your company logo outside of its location. Offer these custom items to customers at their table or by setting up a shop in a high traffic location in the bar or restaurant. Custom glassware items can also be offered as part of specials or deals (example: The daily special comes with a free custom drinking glass).

The legitimacy custom glassware items bring to a restaurant or bar cannot be understated. The most successful establishments have custom drinkware items and at the costs offered by DiscountMugs.com, it’s ill-advised not to get custom glassware items for your establishment. DiscountMugs.com is a web-based factory direct company that sells promotional products from wine glasses and cocktail glasses to beer mugs and shot glasses.

What are the Cheapest Promotional Products?



http://www.allshadow.com/wp-content/uploads/save_money.jpg

In these recessionary times it’s often difficult for a company to find affordable promotional products. They usually scale back the amount of products they purchase or go without promotional product marketing at all and risk underexposure.  But there’s a third option, simply purchase affordable promotional products. Affordable promotional products allow companies to get an adequate amount of promotional products for their marketing campaigns without increasing their marketing budget. Listed below are the top four affordable promotional products that can be used by any company to promote their products or services:

# 1 Promotional Pens – Nothing beats promotional pens when it comes to affordable promotional products. Pens are often purchased in the thousands for pennies-per-pen. This bulk purchasing allows companies to distribute these promotional products over a large area of clients and potential customers. With large imprint areas for custom logos and the popular use of pens at home and in the workplace these promotional products stand out and have premium exposure. Custom pens are the most popular form of promotional marketing because of their consistent success and affordability.

#2 Tote Bags – One of the many reasons for the recent popularity of these promotional bags is their affordability. Tote bags are stylish, convenient, eco-friendly but most impaortantly extremely affordable.  While many people find these products extremely useful as a shopping bag, school bag, work bag, lunch bag and overnight bag, a custom printed bag can cost less than a dollar per bag. These tote bags have added value as promotional products because their imprint area is larger than on most items.

# 3 Shot Glasses – For many people glassware products are seen as high-end items, but shot glasses certainly do not reflect this in their price. Many shot glass items are available for less than a dollar-a-glass and are particularly useful for the restaurant and bar industry. Barware items are also effective promotional products because they are viewed as fun and outgoing products. Shot glasses also attract a lot of attention and look nice with custom printed logos. Shot glasses have the added benefit of being easily distributed because of their relatively small size.

#4 Key Chains – Key chains are promotional products that guarantee high amounts of exposure. After all what item does one carry around more than their keys? Key chains are with people for the majority of the day and every time they are used is an opportunity for promotion. Key chains are also very inexpensive being offered for less than a dollar-per-chain. Using key chains as a promotional product is nearly as popular as using pens, which shows how effective successful this product is in terms of promotion.

Types of Glassware Needed for Bar or Restaurant



20oz Libbey Mixing Glasses

Barware

So you always wanted to open up a bar or restaurant but had no idea you would need so much stuff. We at DiscountMugs can’t help you out with your furnishing or interior design but we certainly can help you find the right glassware items. Obviously the type of glassware you choose will depend largely on the establishment you decide to use them in. If you’re opening up a bar, there are standard glassware items you’ll need and more niche types of glassware you’ll want to impress your patrons. If you’re opening up a restaurant the glassware items you’ll use will depend on the type of drinks you’ll be serving. You can also choose to get these items customized with your restaurant or bar logo on them or get the glassware blank for a more subtle approach.

Bar ownership is a colorful and fun endeavor, but getting all the personalized glassware items can be hectic so be sure to get the right type and quantity of glassware items. First of all, you’re going to want get standard drinking glasses to give your patrons the option of drinking non-alcoholic beverages. Drinking glasses range in size but the average glass should be around twelve-to-fifteen-ounces.  Next you’ll want to get the always classic conical pint glasses; the standard pint is sixteen fluid ouches so be sure to get a sixteen ounce glass if you’re going to be serving it as an official “pint glass”. A pint glass can be used to serve many different types of beer but is best served with Ales and darker beers.

The next type of glass you’ll want to get for your bar is the Pilsner Glass; this glass is long and slender and ranges in size. The Pilsner glass is used to serve Pilsner beer which is a pale lager that continues to grow in popularity in the United States. Many avid beer drinkers prefer to drink Pilsner beer in a Pilsner Glass, so having them available is a good way to impress your clientele. In terms of liquor glasses, most bars have cocktail glasses and shot glasses available for customers as well.  While many bars stop at several different types of glasses, other glasses that can be used to further impress your customers like beer steins, wheat beer glasses, yard glasses, beer boot glasses and stemware.

Restaurants are not that different when it comes to glassware items, but depending on the restaurant, you’ll want to focus more on the stemware and cocktail glasses than the beer and shot glasses. Stemware items vary in style but include categories like wine glasses, brandy snifters, champagne flutes and goblets. Make sure you have both white and red wine glasses as wine drinkers are particular about their glassware. Also if you’re serving brandy, be sure to have brandy snifters as they are very distinct glasses that add a high level of formality and class to your establishment.  The cocktail glass also has a very distinct shape and is used to serve popular drinks like martinis, daiquiris and margaritas. Restaurants must also supply standard glassware items like drinking glasses for non-alcoholic beverages like soda, juice and water.
