Advertise on Drinkware

You are buying an advertising placement service, including the printed drinkware and its delivery into an agreed establishment. Printing glasses for your own use is a separate custom or bulk order.

The shared offer pairs you with a noncompeting advertiser and the venue branding on the same glasses. A single-advertiser arrangement is also available. The product page states the quantity, layout and price for that offer.

We work with bars, restaurants and diners throughout Monroe County, New York, and explore other areas case by case. Tell us where you want to reach customers; placement details are confirmed personally.

Placement prices and quantities are shown on the product pages. Full payment is required before work begins. We accept cash, check and credit card.

Smaller batches reduce backstock at the venue and keep the advertising rotation fresh. We generally expect replenishment every 2-3 months. That is a planning interval, not a guaranteed lifespan for the glasses or your advertising.

Yes. Take-home glasses are a feature of the program, and we encourage venues to support it. Some locations invite customers to ask the bartender for a clean one to take home. A useful glass can keep your business in someone's kitchen and in repeated use long after their visit.

Yes. Both advertisers and the venue approve the artwork before printing. After printing, everyone receives a photograph of the finished glassware for approval before placement. We also keep everyone informed about who will appear on the glass.

Single-color vector artwork is best, but send the highest-quality logo you have. Basic artwork preparation and conversion are included. Fine details may need simplifying for the print size. Extensive revisions or design work may cost extra, discussed before that work begins. You approve any changes and receive a copy of your approved artwork.

Our current designs are single-color screen prints using a two-part ink. Black, red and green are available. All logos on a glass use the same ink color. Other colors can be requested and may cost extra.

QR codes are not currently recommended. Curved glass and small differences between glasses can distort the print and make scanning unreliable. We continue to explore more reliable options.

We are happy to show you previously printed glasses or direct you to a participating venue where you can see them in use.

Handwash decorated glasses to help preserve the printed design. The glass itself is dishwasher safe, but repeated high heat, strong cleaning chemicals and heavy use can chip or wear the print.

Our goal is to fulfill requests within 7-10 business days of the venue requesting glassware. We plan ahead and often have advertisers ready for the next placement. Once advertisers are established, glasses are typically ready for placement within 2-3 business days. These are targets; special requests are discussed with you.

Each placement is a separate advertising opportunity, with its own payment. There is no automatic renewal or subscription. Existing advertisers generally receive first refusal on the next placement, with 1-2 business days to respond.

Yes. Branded drinkware for your own use follows our separate custom and bulk ordering service, rather than advertising placement.
