Sell your products or produce from underneath a branded shop front at markets, fêtes and fairs. A printed gazebo can act as an extension of your usual business premises to help you reach a wider audience.
Sponsor a water station at a local sporting event. A branded gazebo could get your brand noticed by potentially thousands of new people. Add new gazebo walls depending on the event, or mix and match existing walls.
Take professional personal services like massage and therapy sessions on the road. Gazebos with full height walls offer privacy when you’re away from your permanent salon or studio environment.
Book a space-only place at a trade show or exhibition and use a printed gazebo as your branded stand. It works out cheaper than having a stand built, and events like this are a great way to make connections.
Get an impressive scene – like a famous landmark or viewpoint – printed onto a gazebo wall to create a fun photo backdrop for selfies. It’s a novel way to boost social media engagement in the workplace or at events.
If you own a restaurant, bar or café, a gazebo can provide extra serving space and increases the number of customers you can cater for. Try accessorising with festoon lighting for an enchanting atmosphere.
We’ve got a huge range of gazebo frames and accessories like flags, walls and weights to help you configre the perfect gazebo for your business. Start today.
Planning a business summer event can feel daunting. But events are a great way to raise the profile of your business in your local area, to make connections, and to boost sales. Follow our simple checklist below to make sure you’ve got everything in place to ensure your event is a resounding success.
Advertise your event with the most memorable form of marketing – print. These postcards have a summery feel and have a glossy biodegradable laminate on the front.
Help your guests to feel safe with the right social distancing devices. Branded masks, sanitising stations, printed messages and signs are all part of our Covid-19 range.
Make sure you look the business at your event with low cost durable signage, indoors and out. Get custom sized panels cut to shape or choose from a range of sizes.
Make your business event look and feel like a true celebration with colourful, fluttering flags. Arrange them together in groups of three, four or five for maximum impact.
Help social distancing by dividing areas with café barriers. Print markers like ‘Entrance’ or ‘This Way’ to help with navigation. Remember to brand them with your logo too.
Ensure your guests have somewhere comfortable to sit so they’ll hang around for longer. Personalised deckchairs will bring a summer vibe to your event and they look cool.
Ask us to create a simple website or landing page to help promote your product or summer event. You could then direct guests to register for tickets or sign up to a webinar to collect details and attract bookings.
Add guides, pictures and videos to generate anticipation, or provide useful relevant content.
You could even use the platform to post content related to the event or add messages, reviews and a follow-up call-to-action.
