Benefits Of Your Own Custom Designed Stress Shape

We have hundreds of stress shapes on offer on this website, but chances are the majority have already been used by a company for their promotion. It doesn’t mean you can’t use the same style and add your logo to make it unique to your business, but that heart shape you picked could have also been used by a competitor. So how can you differentiate yourself from the rest – Easy – Create your design!

This may sound daunting, but it is a lot easier than you think. All you need is an idea and a rough sketch. From this, we can get our graphics people to draw up your sketch into a full-fledged design. From then on, the process is fairly simple. We send the design to the factory, they then produce a pre-production sample for approval, and once you’ve viewed that and approved it, it goes into production. Then, 8-10 weeks later, they are made, then sea freight out to Australia, and you are then ready to distribute them.

Use your creative streak and perhaps design a mascot for your business that can be turned into a stress shape. There are so many advantages to doing this. The most obvious is that this is exclusive to you and your company. It will help you stand out from the rest as nobody else will have this design. Another great advantage is the stress shape is a perfect match to your brand. Perhaps you are in the restaurant game. Instead of a generic hamburger shape, you can get one design that matches the hamburgers you make, or perhaps another signature dish you would like done.

Maybe you are an architectural firm that designs commercial buildings. The stress ball could be in the shape of one of these buildings, or perhaps you advertise using a mascot that you already use. You can then get it in the shape of your mascot. The possibilities are endless, and whatever you decide on, it is exclusively yours. They could even be given as an add on to sales to reward customers, or they could be handed out at an expo.

You might think you have to order tens of thousands of them to get your own custom shape, but nowadays, you can order as little as 5,000 pieces. There is always an initial mold fee, but once it is paid for, that mold is yours. Just bear in mind that the mould will weaken over time, so if you are doing repeat jobs, potentially after 3 or 4 repeat orders, you may need to get a new mould done. However, it still works out much cheaper in the long run, and you have a special shape that is particular to your business - and that is priceless.

The bottom line is a custom stress shape is a great way to get your brand out there and sync with the rest of your marketing. We’ve been doing custom-designed stress shapes for many years, so look no further if you are looking for a trusted company to take care of you.
