Think about the last time you went to a restaurant. Did the glassware or plastic cups stand out to you in any way? Without decoration or branding, restaurant glassware and similar items tend to appear fairly basic and uninteresting. If you did notice glassware decoration, did it entice you? Was the brand image chipped or faded? If so, did it make you question the cleanliness of your glassware? Let’s talk about how decorating your restaurant glassware using digital heat transfers will help you make a long-lasting positive impression on your guests.
Why Decorate Restaurant Glassware?
At first, you may underestimate the power of decorating restaurant glassware, but it can help propel your business image, reputation, and even sales. Nearly every single one of your dine-in guests will order a beverage during their visit to your restaurant, even if it is just water. People tend to examine their glassware and surrounding table items as they wait for their food to arrive. Decorating your glassware gives you the opportunity to relay information that could make an impact on your sales to each one of these guests.
Restaurant Glassware Decoration Ideas to Boost Sales
If you have another location, consider decorating your restaurant glassware with a bold logo as well as a list of your locations. This will increase the likelihood of a happy guest seeking out your other location or recommending it to a friend who lives nearby. If you are trying to rebrand your restaurant, you can use glassware decoration as a means to promote the new image and get your customers excited. Restaurant glassware is also an ideal platform to showcase your creativity or promote awareness about a local issue or special charity event you may be hosting.
For example, you can use digital heat transfers to decorate a set of limited edition restaurant glassware to promote breast cancer awareness during the month of October. If you pair this effort with an aesthetically pleasing graphic, your guests may request to purchase the cup from you directly to take home. You could also encourage your clientele to cheer on the home team by integrating sports decoration into your glassware.
