  • 182 - McD's & US Open Cups, Aldi vs Trader Joes Bags, Spam Musubi Fund Raiser, Gorton's Fish Merch

    Spam's Musubi Maui fundraiser offers items like Musubi-shaped ottomans, mixing fun with philanthropy.

    McDonald's and the US Open use collectible cups to increase customer engagement and sales.

    Aldi and Trader Joe's go head to head on cooler bags. I look at L.L.Bean's tote bag rivalry with Lands End.

    Gorton's is updating its image with retro-style merchandise for younger consumers.

    Takeaways:

    Try limited edition merch to support causes and generate interest in our brand


    Consider collectible items that customers will keep and use often


    Check our company's history for ideas when creating new merchandise


    Include younger team members in design discussions to ensure we stay relevant


    Think about unusual promotions like trade-in programs to stand out from competitors

  • 180 - Cheesecake Factory Merch, Pringles x Crocs, Dunkin' Delays, The Last Barf Bag

    The Cheesecake Factory has launched a new merch line for rewards members, featuring iconic brand designs on apparel, accessories, and home goods.

    Pringles and Crocs teamed up for a fun collection including Pringles-inspired clogs, slides, and the standout Crush boot with a snack-holding heel.

    Dunkin' faced delays with their popular DunKings Super Bowl tracksuits, but maintained customer trust by acknowledging the issue and offering gift cards.

    Dramamine put a humorous spin on obsolete barf bags, repurposing them as collectible items like popcorn bags, chef hats, and puppets.

  • 179 - Jimmy John's Sandwich Scarf, Jollibee Pocket Tees & Moon Pie Eclipse Kit Fail

    Jimmy John's Capri salami pesto sandwich-inspired silk scarf is expensive at $75, but versatile and some proceeds go to their foundation. Applebee's introduced Bacardi tropical rum buckets, though you can't take them home. Jollibee Foods launched a merch line with cool items like an all-over print tote bag and shirts with printed pockets in sizes up to 5X for the same base price.

    Brands like Krispy Kreme, Snapple, Sun Chips, Blue Moon beer, and Moon Pies have creative eclipse-themed products and gimmicks. I'm disappointed that the advertised Moon Pie "solar eclipse survival kit" didn't actually include eclipse glasses.

    Brands can create themed merch and promotions tied to seasonal events, limited-time offerings, or special occurrences to drive interest and sales. The key takeaway is finding creative ways to align your brand with happenings that capture people's attention.
