Clients ask us all the time, “What are your most popular water bottles?” It’s hard to answer that question, because no two projects are alike. The perfect bottle for one client may be completely wrong for another.
That said, there are certain water bottles each year that clients gravitate towards. This year’s list is quite different from last year’s (you can view that list here). Here are our top 10 custom water bottles of 2015: Continue reading →
Last week, Team Bulletin Bag was all business (see left) as we headed to the industry’s largest trade show in Las Vegas. We were on the lookout for new bottles that our clients (you!) might like.
So what’s new and trendy in 2016? The focus is on high-quality materials, which often leads to an even higher perceived value. Matte black finishes on both stainless steel and aluminum are hot. Odorless, dishwasher-safe Tritan copolyester is more on trend than ever before, and in some cases beat out aluminum as the material of choice! We even found a glass water bottle that’s encased in plastic, which combines maximum taste purity with durable construction.
When you’re planning marketing campaigns this year that involve custom water bottles, remember that it is most likely to get used when it features:
• Current or classic lines
• High-perceived value through weight, design, and material composition
• Appealing colors
In the coming month, we’ll be evaluating our top water bottle picks from the show. We study the costs and test out each bottle ourselves. Stay tuned to find out what makes the cut and finds a place on our site!
Custom growlers are here! Bulletin Bottle [.com] is excited to announce the newest addition to our product lineup—stainless steel growlers. These versatile vessels can keep hot liquids hot for up to 8 hours and any cold drink cool for 12 hours!
But, what is a growler, and where did the term come from? Continue reading →
Custom glass water bottles are at once classic and stylish, and Bulletin Bottle [.com] is proud to offer a hand-picked assortment of them.
Glass is a time-tested, preferred water bottle material for lots of reasons. Custom glass water bottles are made from sustainable raw materials and can be recycled over and over again—with no loss of purity. It’s this clarity that keeps water tasting like water, with no altering of its flavor the way that some metal and plastic bottles can leave an ever-so-slight aftertaste (that’s only perceptible to some). Continue reading →
USA made custom water bottles have always been popular at Bulletin Bottle [.com]. Perhaps it’s because of our selection (we currently have 20 made in the USA custom water bottles!). Maybe it’s because demand for USA made custom water bottles supports manufacturing jobs, which contributes to a healthy economy (and job creation).
Think it’s too close to the holidays to have a successful fundraiser? Not true! Water bottle fundraisers can raise money at any time of year.
Yes, the holiday season is racing towards us, but guess what? People need holiday gifts, and what better way to help your favorite nonprofit or school than by supporting water bottle fundraisers? Continue reading →
Even though Election Day is more than a year away, the Presidential race is already in full swing. The heat is on and candidates know they need to cut through the clutter and be top of mind—starting NOW.
In recent elections, candidates have discovered the power of water bottle giveaways.
A recent blog talked about how the right water bottle makes all the difference if you’re trying to make lasting changes and it all started when I was ordering a bottle to test. This is the story of that test bottle.
Why are water bottle fundraisers gaining popularity in schools? The answer might have something to do with the results of a recent study from the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health.
The nationwide study found that more than half of children and teenagers in the United States may not be properly hydrated, and one in four kids drink no water during the course of their day. Continue reading →
I volunteered to test the Wide Mouth Collapsible Bottle because there are two design elements that stuck out when I first saw this bottle in person.
First was the lid. Most of the folding water bottles I’ve seen have simple screw on, push-pull spouts with a clear cap that pops on and off (like our Flat Water Bottle). There’s nothing wrong with those lids, but this is one you would likely find on a much more expensive bottle. Continue reading →
