When designing promotional umbrellas it is often times helpful to think outside of the box and not necessarily limit yourself to the traditional one-size-fits-all umbrella, in fact a promotional umbrella designed in the style of a compact umbrella may not only save you money and manufacturing costs, but also make it more likely that your clients will actually use the promotional products.

This won't be a significant savings, but it will be there.
