The gifts that keep on giving
The holidays can be one of the busiest times of the year. Check out our tips and tricks on how to get ahead, and make this season one to remember.
Sustainability
Consumers are searching for more than just quality products and services these days. They are looking for brands that align with their personal values. So giving an eco-friendly item as a gift will not only help showcase your company’s ethics, but make your brand more credible and likable.
Remote Work
Employees can be productive at home, but collaborating with team members and building relationships just isn’t the same in a virtual environment. Branded gifts can bridge the gap between remote workers and company culture. Leave your employees feeling valued and important to your overall mission.
Technology
With innovation happening faster than ever, integrated tech products bring ease and convenience to our lives in new and exciting ways. Whether it's a high-tech mug that maintains the perfect temperature for your coffee, or a ‘smart notebook’ that can store your notes and ideas in the cloud. People use technology daily, so it’s no surprise they desire products that fit seamlessly into their lifestyle.

What's the best way to determine my budget?
There are many ways to get to a final budget! One of the most effective is determining a spend per employee. This spend should include the budget needed for kitting and shipping if applicable. An example might be - $50.00 per employee at 1,500 employees. Your total all in budget would equal $75,000 for the project.
What products do you have access to?
We have access to 1000's of brands and 1M+ products. If you can put a logo on it, we do it. A great starting point is understanding what categories you're interested in (apparel, headware, drinkware, at home, gadgets, etc).
Can you kit and ship to individuals?
If you've ever tried kitting DIY... you'll be happy to know our fulfillment team can handle this for you. We'll work through products, packaging, and logistics - including collecting addresses for distribution.
Is custom packaging and personalization available?
There are so many great options out there. Our team will help you decide which packaging makes sense based on your budget and timeline. Add your branding to packaging to make the gifting experience that much better.
How long are current lead times?
This will vary from item to item. However, current lead times are sitting at 10-14 business days. If your project includes kitting and shipping to individual homes - you should plan for an additional 2 weeks for delivery. On average you can expect around 3-4 weeks from start to finish. Plan ahead to beat the rush!
