Co-op funds are available for hundreds of brands that all Dads love. If you have real “deep pockets” you can shower your Dad with love and a new car (or boat)! But it is definitely more economical to think about a new fishing rod, barbeque equipment, or clothing. Let’s look at a few Father’s Day traditions and trivia to get you thinking about how you can create a fun campaign for your advertisers that sell products for “Dear Ole’ Dad”!

Father’s Day Traditions

  1. There are 1.5 billion fathers worldwide. 66.3 million of those fathers are in the United States.
  2. Father’s Day is the fifth-largest card-sending occasion in America, with almost 100 million cards sent each year.
  3. Consumers spend an average of $94.54 on Father’s Day gifts. A total of $20B is spent on Father’s Day.
  4. It wasn’t until 1972 that Father’s Day was officially made a U.S. holiday when President Richard Nixon helped set aside the third Sunday in June for dads.
  5. Believe it or not, neckties are still a popular Father’s Day gift. However, folks are starting to get on board with an event (like fishing on the actual holiday) or dinner.
  6. What popular sport holds its championship event on Father’s Day weekend? It’s the U.S. Open Golf Championship (golf gifts sound like a good idea).
  7. For over 25 years, Wichita, Kansas, has hosted the “Father’s Day Car Show.” The event, which showcases over 2,000 cars, trucks, and motorcycles, is held in downtown Wichita.

Below are just a few of the brands that offer co-op funding, which will be sure to put a smile on Dad’s face.
