Uniqueness
Generic off the shelf bar coasters are uninspiring and can be found just about anywhere. So, why not have something unique you can be identified with, elegant or cool, coaster that you’ve created yourself. It’s some of the little details that set businesses apart.

Inexpensive
Printing your own coasters is relatively cheap even when compared to generic coasters. Besides, there is the economic befit of bulk buying. There is no reason why you should go for generic rather than customized – at least from a financial perspective.

Free advertisement
A branded coaster on its own is a free advertisement. Take a billboard, for instance, viewers only see it for a fraction of a minute from their speeding cars; a coaster, however, is continuously viewed over an extended period by comfortable viewers with probably lots of time to spare. Therefore, it is easier to internalize a message from a drink coaster and associate the product with the brand. Let’s face it, the cost of advertising is very high, so an advertising opportunity this cheap, at virtually no extra charge, cannot just be ignored.

Brand identity
Any personalized or branded item can be associated with the identity of your brand. Personalized drink coasters are no exception. In bars, there is usually not much that a customer can associate with the brand name. To offer a personalized touch in this setting, custom bar and cocktail coasters are ideal. People sit in bars for hours, within that time it’s important to remind the customer where they are enjoying their drinks by flashing your brand now and then in a subtle yet effective way.
Through persistant brand exposure, loyal customer and new customers alike grow to identify your bar and associate it with the services and drinks you offer. Custom coasters also display a hint of professionalism and attention to details.

With everyone trying their best to make occasions as special and unique as possible, one of the best ways to do this is through customized items. Yes, customized coasters are not only useful at beer bars and pubs; they can be used to create a statement at a special event or gathering to enhance your marketing and advertising strategy.
For example, if you are printing coasters for a wedding at your venue, you can print the couple’s photos or images using the same colours and images used for the wedding theme. And if it’s a big birthday party, you could perhaps collect some messages from the birthday person’s friends and print them on the coasters to add a personal touch to the event.
You are at liberty to print or customize the mats as you want them, using your preferred colours, shape and designs. You can let your creative juices flow, and the printers will print your beer drip mats just like you want them. You stand to benefit in the process as your coasters are sure to grab the attention of potential customers and beer lovers which in turn spell added business to you in the long run.

There usually is no minimum order for printing. So if you don’t know what to buy for your friend’s birthday, you can always customize some mats and present a set of them personalized with your own wording, pictures or graphics. It’s also a perfect gift for those with house bars as all it takes are one or two customized beer drip mats to create a pub feel to their home bar.
