What started as a fun grocery-store-meets-metal-band mashup turned into one of the most viral merch drops of the year.Here’s what’s happened:A fan design turned into an official partnershipA charity angle raised $35,000 for Austin musiciansA tech fail that left fans frustratedWhat small brands can learn about handling hype and demandHype is great—but make sure your system can take the hit. If your fans show up ready to buy, you’d better be ready for them.---Equipment we're using:Sony ZV-1 (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/36LK8e2Sony ZV-1 Vlogger Accessory Kit (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3mSNT72Shure SM58 Microphone (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3axqoeWRODECaster Pro Production Studio - https://amzn.to/3rViinTSwitchpod by Pat Flynn (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.link/switchpodElgato Stream Deck (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/2S1CcNJSoftware and services we like:Broadcasting with Ecamm Live - get a trial now - https://bigpromo.live/ecammThis podcast is hosted on Captivate Dot FM - get a free 7 day trial here (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.live/captivateBeef up your YouTube presence with Tubebuddy (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.live/tubebuddyGo from fuzzy thought to clear text fast with AudioPen: https://bigpromo.link/audiopenAI Images and Chat in one place: https://bigpromo.link/magaiSetapp - over 200 quality apps for Mac - https://bigpromo.link/setappWispr Flow for Voice Dictation - https://bigpromo.link/wispr@Takeonetech - Ecamm Masterclass https://bigpromo.link/ecamm-masterclass---Links to this podcasthttps://www.merchdrop.show/Get merch ideas in your inbox:http://merchdrop.show/newsletterBig Promotions!🕸 https://www.bigpromotions.net📝 https://blog.bigpromotions.net👀 http://fb.com/bigpromotions🗣 https://twitter.com/bigpromotions🌅 https://instagram.com/bigpromotions🗄 https://www.linkedin.com/company/bigpromo📽 https://bigpromo.live/youtubec.2025 Biggerfish, Dallas TX USA381 Casa Linda Plaza, Suite 200Dallas, Texas 75218 USA

‪@Chomps‬ the meat snack brand, pulled off one of the smartest pop-up activations of the year. They took over an old gas station in Austin for a back-to-school event: they cleaned out parents’ cars, handed out free snacks and branded merch, and turned everyday stress into a shareable experience.Experiential marketing like this works. It builds lasting brand equity. Small brands can learn from it.---Equipment we're using:Sony ZV-1 (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/36LK8e2Sony ZV-1 Vlogger Accessory Kit (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3mSNT72Shure SM58 Microphone (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3axqoeWRODECaster Pro Production Studio - https://amzn.to/3rViinTSwitchpod by Pat Flynn (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.link/switchpodElgato Stream Deck (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/2S1CcNJSoftware and services we like:Broadcasting with Ecamm Live - get a trial now - https://bigpromo.live/ecammThis podcast is hosted on Captivate Dot FM - get a free 7 day trial here (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.live/captivateBeef up your YouTube presence with Tubebuddy (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.live/tubebuddyGo from fuzzy thought to clear text fast with AudioPen: https://bigpromo.link/audiopenAI Images and Chat in one place: https://bigpromo.link/magaiSetapp - over 200 quality apps for Mac - https://bigpromo.link/setappWispr Flow for Voice Dictation - https://bigpromo.link/wispr@Takeonetech - Ecamm Masterclass https://bigpromo.link/ecamm-masterclass---Links to this podcasthttps://www.merchdrop.show/Get merch ideas in your inbox:http://merchdrop.show/newsletterBig Promotions!🕸 https://www.bigpromotions.net📝 https://blog.bigpromotions.net👀 http://fb.com/bigpromotions🗣 https://twitter.com/bigpromotions🌅 https://instagram.com/bigpromotions🗄 https://www.linkedin.com/company/bigpromo📽 https://bigpromo.live/youtubec.2025 Biggerfish, Dallas TX USA381 Casa Linda Plaza, Suite 200Dallas, Texas 75218 USA

When is “ask forgiveness, not permission” a good idea? Baggu found out the hard way.At their new San Francisco store opening, the sustainable bag brand gave away BART-branded water bottles, hats, and stickers — without permission from Bay Area Rapid Transit. It wasn't really BART merch, Baggu thought it was OK to knock off the BART logo and make it their own. Not good!The stunt went viral, drew backlash, and pushed Baggu into crisis-control talks with BART about a legitimate merch partnership.This breakdown covers how a giveaway meant to celebrate a store launch turned into a lesson on intellectual property, licensing, and how official collaborations can build more trust (and less chaos).---Equipment we're using:Sony ZV-1 (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/36LK8e2Sony ZV-1 Vlogger Accessory Kit (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3mSNT72Shure SM58 Microphone (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3axqoeWRODECaster Pro Production Studio - https://amzn.to/3rViinTSwitchpod by Pat Flynn (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.link/switchpodElgato Stream Deck (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/2S1CcNJSoftware and services we like:Broadcasting with Ecamm Live - get a trial now - https://bigpromo.live/ecammThis podcast is hosted on Captivate Dot FM - get a free 7 day trial here (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.live/captivateBeef up your YouTube presence with Tubebuddy (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.live/tubebuddyGo from fuzzy thought to clear text fast with AudioPen: https://bigpromo.link/audiopenAI Images and Chat in one place: https://bigpromo.link/magaiSetapp - over 200 quality apps for Mac - https://bigpromo.link/setappWispr Flow for Voice Dictation - https://bigpromo.link/wispr@Takeonetech - Ecamm Masterclass https://bigpromo.link/ecamm-masterclass---Links to this podcasthttps://www.merchdrop.show/Get merch ideas in your inbox:http://merchdrop.show/newsletterBig Promotions!🕸 https://www.bigpromotions.net📝 https://blog.bigpromotions.net👀 http://fb.com/bigpromotions🗣 https://twitter.com/bigpromotions🌅 https://instagram.com/bigpromotions🗄 https://www.linkedin.com/company/bigpromo📽 https://bigpromo.live/youtubec.2025 Biggerfish, Dallas TX USA381 Casa Linda Plaza, Suite 200Dallas, Texas 75218 USA

King's Hawaiian just used branded merch to market a logo refresh at Chicago O’Hare Airport. Their team set up a booth with private changing rooms, and travelers swapped the clothes they were wearing for a free “soft-wear” sweatsuit.

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.

Happy New Year! In the first show of 2024, here's what's on tap: Planet Fitness collaborates with Megan Thee Stallion, releasing fitness-focused merchandise like shirts and water bottles. However, they could have expanded their range to include more diverse fitness gear.Pringles' unexpected partnership with a caviar company demonstrates the effectiveness of unconventional brand collaborations. The Pop-Tarts Bowl used a mascot effectively for marketing but missed a chance to further capitalize on this popularity through merchandise like toys or apparel.

In this episode, we dive into exciting collaborations and promotional ideas from top brands like Crocs, Taco Bell, Coors Light, Cholula, and Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers. Crocs and Taco Bell announced a limited-edition Mellow Slide - a perfect blend of the two brands' identities. Crocs leverages partnerships with influential brands, such as Disney, Marvel, NBA, Star Wars, and Nickelodeon, to engage audiences.Cholula did a collab with and UPRISERS, a streetwear brand committed to uplifting underrepresented communities. Their limited-edition merch flew off the shelves, underscoring the potential of branded merch in connecting with younger audiences. Coors Light's has a creative workaround NFL's advertising restrictions, introducing a refreshing 'bear' (not beer!) that supports a charitable cause. We question the strategy of limited pre-sales and emphasize the importance of fulfilling customer demand.And we wrap up with Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers: first, a store designed by Post Malone and and it's collector cup promotion. We also take a peek at the new flagship store in Times Square and their location-specific merch.Catch this show every week: https://bigpromo.live/youtube#bigpromotions #biggerfish #mybigpromo #bigpromoswag #swag #merch #promotionalproducts #podcast---This month's promo code: https://bigpromo.link/code---This week's topics:0:36 Taco Bell Teams With Crocs on 'Live Más' Mellow Slideshttps://www.foodandwine.com/taco-bell-crocs-mellow-slides-7547194Taco Bell X Crocs Mellow Slidehttps://www.crocs.com/p/taco-bell-x-crocs-mellow-slide/208613.html2:39 Cholula® Announces Limited-Edition "La Familia" Streetwear Collection with UPRISERShttps://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/cholula-announces-limited-edition-la-familia-streetwear-collection-with-uprisers-301856767.htmlCholula Hot Sauce on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/p/CtwNkaHNSG1/UPRISERS X Cholula Three Generations Sethttps://weareuprisers.com/products/uprisers-x-cholula-three-generations-setUPRISERS X Cholula Iconic Cap Sethttps://weareuprisers.com/products/uprisers-x-cholula-drop-kit7:03 Patrick Mahomes, Coors Light introduce Coors Light Bearhttps://www.molsoncoorsblog.com/patrick-mahomes-coors-light-bearThe Coors Light Bear Golf Club Coverhttps://shop.coorslight.com/products/coorslightbearPatrick Mahomes sells Coors Light flashlights for charityhttps://www.usatoday.com/story/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs/2022/07/18/patrick-mahomes-sells-coors-light-flashlights-charity/10079061002/15 and the Mahomies Foundationhttps://www.15andthemahomies.org/7:03 Post Malone, Raising Cane's collaborate on new collector's cupshttps://www.usatoday.com/story/money/food/2023/06/21/post-malone-raising-canes-exclusive-collectors-cups/70341502007/Raising Cane'shttps://raisingcanes.com/postmalone/8:33 Raising Cane's Marks Big Apple Debut with Global Flagship in Times Squarehttps://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/raising-canes-marks-big-apple-debut-with-global-flagship-in-times-square-301862619.htmlBringing Our One Love to The Big Apple with the Global Flagship in Times Squarehttps://raisingcanes.com/news/ny-timessquare-opening/---Equipment we're using:Sony ZV-1 (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/36LK8e2Sony ZV-1 Vlogger Accessory Kit (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3mSNT72Shure SM58 Microphone (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/3axqoeWRODECaster Pro Production Studio - https://amzn.to/3rViinTSwitchpod by Pat Flynn (affiliate link) - https://bigpromo.link/switchpodElgato Stream Deck (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/2S1CcNJSoftware and services we like:Broadcasting with...
