Custom Brewery and Craft Beer stickersCreate the Right Image for Your Beer with Stickers

The image of your beer is almost as important as the taste. The type of image you want your brand to have will depend largely on your target audience, of course. If you’re targeting the young, hip crowd, then you might want to build a brand that’s fun and even a little quirky. If you’re main buyers are executives, you might want a brand that is a little more conservative. And if you’ve created a high-end beer aimed at people with deep pockets, then you will want an image that screams luxury. And you can achieve all of that with stickers by creating labels that send the message you want. You can opt for die-cut stickers, for example, to give your label a fun shape that will be more attractive to hip crowds. Of course, to make your life easier, you can always get sticker sheets with kiss-cut stickers. You can still choose any shape for the sticker, but they’re much simpler to peel off than their die-cut counterparts. And when you’re applying oodles of labels, you’ll really want the option that requires the least amount of effort. The best part with stickers is that you can get any design you like printed, allowing you to get as creative or stay as conservative as you choose. Plus, because they are so cost-effective, you can easily change up the labels to keep things fresh. So, if you want to stand out from the crowd and create an amazing image for your beer – one that everyone will be talking about – stickers are definitely a great way to accomplish that.

Spread the Word about Your Beer

People get really passionate about their favorite brews, so it’s smart for you to take advantage of that passion and provide them with an effective way to advertise your brand. And stickers are perfect for this job. Not only are they a cost-effective promotional tool, but because of how much people like stickers, they’ll never feel as if you’re trying to hard-sell them on your brand.

Luckily, even though stickers are promotional tools, people don’t perceive them as advertising. In fact, people get quite passionate about collecting stickers – even if they feature brands and nothing else. This passion is testament to the value of using stickers to promote your brand because when you give people stickers, they’ll be received as a gift rather than ending up in the first garbage like a flyer or other advertising materials. So, all you have to do is hand out loads of stickers to your most passionate fans and encourage them to spread the word. Even if you’re beer is brand new, stickers are still an excellent way to get the word out.

So, use people’s passion for stickers and their love of a good beer to get the word out about your awesome brew.
