Welcome Gifts
We're the whole package.
To celebrate the FSU Seminoles taking the field in Dublin, Ireland, the team greeted VIP attendees with these Ireland-themed welcome boxes. We personalized the box with the recipient’s name and a message on the inside lid. Personalized touches continued with a set of two custom luggage tags that were dye-sublimated with the recipient’s initials. Paper goods included a custom sticker sheet and four custom postcards to mark the destination. An itinerary with schedule of events was also presented.
Keep Austin (conference ready)! For this year’s Zelis forum event in Austin Texas, attendees were met with welcome box with company goodies. A white magnetic box with printed inside lid held a full-color bandana, 3 acrylic pins on printed card, company socks, made-in-Austin snacks, and printed card. Gifting a bandana is a great way to add your branding to an item for a warm-temperature-based event!
How do you celebrate 40 years of Sandals fandom? By capturing the senses with the sounds and scents of paradise. On their nationwide yacht excursions, Sandals partners received a fully branded bluetooth speaker, custom made Sea Mineral travel candle tin, and a blind embossed luggage tag for their next trip. Each of the three gifts fit perfectly into a custom platform for a sleek, modern aesthetic.
