Gifting can boost brand perception after all. In fact, nearly a third of people view a brand more favorably after receiving a gift. (Source: PPAI 2025 Research) The problem is that when push comes to shove, often than not, businesses are scrambling to get together their holiday gifting and end up settling for the “slapped-on” branded gifts that may feel and look cheap. Modern branding goes beyond that. Planning ahead leaves room for more possibilities, especially when it comes to making gifts custom. Consider the following when planning for the holidays:
Online Shops Make Gifting Seamless
Your corporate gifting list probably includes coffee lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and even foodies. By building an online shop it allows provide gift diversity without the need of inventory investment. It helps streamline the entire process, from product selection (you’ll have already locked in the design, color, and size) to collecting recipient info and quantity details. With time on our side, we can take the steps to find the right gifts and provide custom options for the people that matter to you. Dive into our solutions here.
Take Advantage of Creative Deco Methods
Aside from finding quality creative merch, we can provide creative decoration methods that make your brand stand out – specifically when time is on your side. Imagine a laser-engraved detail on a cutting board paired with a charcuterie board and wine, a full color embroidered patch on a brand name jacket, or a unique screen-printing technique that gives your design a vintage feel. Whether you’re recognizing employees, clients, or prospects, you want people to speak highly about your business. That comes from not only your service and actions, but also the gifts they associate with you too. Deco methods allow any design to life – be it complex, colorful, 3D, or create a retail look – on the merch you gift.
The Power of Personalization
We partnered with our client, famous for their pancake and waffles, to bring their plush pancakes from a dated project back to life. Even though they were interested in keeping the original design, we took on the challenge of redesigning it! Let's be honest, does it get any cuter than a pancake plush with a cute face? The point is that even when you have a clear direction, we will always provide additional options, so you are aware of every possibility. That goes for every step of gifting even down to the “unboxing” experience. When you’re planning 8 weeks in advance, we can design custom belly bands, personalized inserts with a message from you to them, or branded boxes that create a cohesive and exciting reveal.
Planning ahead is the freedom to give more thought to creative decoration, create a seamless online shopping experience, build personalized packaging, and engage in thoughtful brainstorming.
