What is a Fuel Jobber?

BEHIND YOUR DESIGN RECENTLY DESIGNED A NEW LOGO, TANKER TRUCK AND CUSTOM RESPONSIVE WEBSITE FOR TRI-LAKES PETROLEUM

Most projects teach us something we didn't know before. Working with Tri-Lakes Petroleum, we discovered what a fuel jobber is, as well as how it keeps us on the go and helps us heat our homes. A "jobber" is the industry term for a person or company that sells fuel to retailers (like your local gas station) or directly to the end users (like farms or for home heating).

That may sound simple, but a fuel jobber does so much more than that! They:

And those are just the basics! Tri-Lakes Petroleum, a Great Lakes fuel jobber with corporate offices located in Alma, MI offers all these services and more.

Behind Your Design had the honor of creating a new logo and custom responsive website for Tri-Lakes Petroleum, as well as working with Bill Carr Signs to create custom tanker trucks! Be on the look out for Tri-Lakes Petroleum's beautiful new tankers on the road, delivering quality petroleum all around the Great Lakes region. The trucks feature the new logo we designed and tri-color details. Snazzy!

When it comes to promotional products that combine practicality, durability, and everyday value, custom coolers are hard to beat. They're more than just a way to keep drinks cold. They're the kind of branded item people reach for again and again, whether they're heading to a football game, packing lunch for work, or spending the weekend outdoors. As back-to-school season kicks off and football returns, custom coolers become especially relevant. They're also one of the most appreciated employee holiday gifts because they continue to be useful long after the holidays are over. Perfect for Back-to-School and Tailgating Season Back-to-school doesn't just mean students are heading back to class. It also marks the return of football season, weekend tournaments, and tailgating events. A branded cooler is the perfect companion for college football games, youth sports tournaments, camping trips, beach days, road trips, and family picnics. Every time it's packed for another adventure, your logo goes along for the ride, creating lasting brand visibility. A Holiday Gift Employees Will Actually Appreciate Custom coolers make excellent employee holiday gifts because they're both thoughtful and practical. Employees can use them for lunch, road trips, weekend outings, or everyday errands. With options ranging from compact custom lunch coolers and custom cooler bags to backpack coolers and premium insulated styles, there's a solution for organizations of every size and gifting program. Functional Promotional Products That Last The best promotional products solve a problem. A custom cooler keeps food fresh, drinks cold, and essentials organized while providing repeated brand exposure wherever it's used. Whether it's a company picnic, community event, tailgate, or campsite, functional promotional products like branded coolers continue working long after they're handed out. More Styles Than You Might Expect Today's custom coolers are available in a variety of styles, including: Soft-sided insulated coolers Backpack coolers Custom lunch coolers Custom cooler bags Hard-shell coolers Collapsible coolers Whether you're planning employee holiday gifts, customer appreciation, company events, sales incentives, or fall marketing campaigns, there's a custom cooler that fits the occasion. Why Custom Coolers Continue to Stand Out Promotional products are most effective when they're useful. Custom coolers are practical, durable, and designed to become part of everyday life. If you're looking for promotional products people will use again and again, custom coolers are a smart choice. From back-to-school tailgates to employee holiday gifts and year-round adventures, they're a functional way to keep your brand visible wherever life takes your audience.  Looking for the Right Custom Cooler? At Behind Your Design, we help businesses find promotional products that fit their brand and their audience. Whether you're planning for fall events, employee appreciation, or holiday gifting, we can help you find custom coolers people will enjoy using for years to come.

When it comes to fall promotional products , it's easy to think about the usual giveaways like pens, tote bags, or drinkware. While those all have their place, sometimes the best promotional products are the ones people didn't know they needed until they have them. That's exactly why we love the Port Authority® Picnic Blanket . Whether you're cheering from the sidelines at a Friday night football game, spending the afternoon at a soccer tournament, enjoying an outdoor concert, or heading to the park for a picnic, this is the kind of item that gets packed, used, and appreciated again and again. Every time it comes along, your brand does too. A Promotional Blanket Built for Fall Events Fall is packed with opportunities to get outside. From youth sports and community festivals to tailgates and company events, having a blanket in the car is one of those little conveniences that makes a big difference. This branded picnic blanket features a soft fleece top for comfort and a water-resistant backing to help keep moisture from damp grass off your clothes. When you're done, it zips neatly into itself and includes an over-the-shoulder carrying strap, making it easy to store until the next adventure. That's what makes it such an effective custom promotional product . It's practical enough to earn a permanent spot in someone's vehicle instead of being tucked away in a drawer. A Premium Promotional Gift People Will Use Not every promotional product has to be a giveaway. Sometimes you want something with a little more impact, and this blanket delivers. It's a thoughtful option for employee appreciation gifts , client gifts , customer thank-yous, or event prizes. A premium promotional item shows that you put thought into the gift, and that's something people remember. Quality products also tend to stick around longer. The longer someone uses it, the more opportunities your brand has to be seen at games, parks, concerts, camping trips, and family outings. Customize Your Branded Picnic Blanket The front pocket offers plenty of room for decoration, but don't think you're limited to a simple logo. One of the best parts of working with the Behind Your Design team is creating something that feels unique to your brand. Whether that's a full-color design, a fun graphic, or creative branding that reflects your organization, we'll help you create something people are excited to use. A Promotional Product That Goes Everywhere The best promotional products become part of everyday life. A picnic blanket isn't just for picnics. It travels to football games, soccer tournaments, outdoor movies, concerts, camping trips, beach days, and backyard gatherings. It becomes the blanket people keep in the car "just in case." Every time they pull it out, your brand is right there with them. Whether you're looking for one memorable client gift or enough blankets for your entire team, the Port Authority® Picnic Blanket is a functional, high-qu ality fall promotional product that's built to be used season after season. With low minimum ordering options and price breaks starting at just 12 pieces, it's easy to find t he right fit for your next promotion, appreciation gift, or event. We'd love to help you customize it and create something your customers, employees, or clients will enjoy using.
