    Christmas cards, calendars and diaries - The staff complement can purchase their annual requirements from Cotlands.

    Corporate & Promotional Gifts - client gifts could be purchased out of a range of corporate and promotional gifts, an ideal opportunity for companies to show their support by purchasing an added value product.

  • Business
    Cotlands is aggressively focused on Cause Related Marketing (CRM) opportunities in the business environment. The objective, as a marketer of a charitable organisation, is to identify marketing imperatives of a business, which relate to the holistic cause of Cotlands.

    In the consumer's mind, Cotlands is striving to position itself positively to effect the consumer's buying behaviour, identifying that buying the business product is synonymous with buying the cause.

    The CRM objective is to create a win-win situation for both Cotlands and the business, which in turn will lead to further sustainability.

    The dynamic Cotlands brand is growing in recognition, strength, and perception. The favourable acceptance synonymous with the cause of Cotlands as a not-for-profit organisation within the community will assist in the CRM efforts as well as spreading the products and services offered to the community at large.

    "If you hold a Cotlands Fundraiser , we require that you submit a Cotlands Fundraising Proposal to us for approval prior to the Activity/Event."
