The hidden horrors of holiday gifting

Sending holiday gifts can be a wonderful gesture, but it also comes with its own set of challenges that businesses need to navigate carefully, ranging from logistical issues to finding that perfect gift to align with your brand and your recipient's taste.

Logistical challenges

One of the primary hurdles is managing the logistics. Ensuring that gifts arrive on time, especially during the busy holiday season when shipping services are often overwhelmed, adds to the challenge, not to mention dealing with unexpected customs charges.

Our answer: Sit back and relax, our team of experts are dedicated to getting your gifts where they need to go, all delivered duty paid.

Budget constraints

Balancing the desire to give meaningful gifts with the need to manage costs effectively can be a headache. High-quality gifts that leave a lasting impression can be expensive, and when you multiply this by the number of clients or employees, the total cost can quickly add up.

Our answer: Buy your custom gifts in bulk for cheaper unit prices, and assign stock to the teams that need it. Also, with our marketplace gifts you only pay for gifts that are redeemed.

Wasted gifts

An unwanted gift is a drain on your resources, both time and budget. It can be hard to make sure everyone gets what they want, as no single gift will work for everyone.

Our answer: Offer recipients a choice. Our platform allows them to choose what they want the most, and you can include digital vouchers or the option to donate to a charity, so nothing is wasted or unwanted.

Maintaining brand consistency

Ensuring your gifting aligns with your company's brand and values is essential for an impactful gift experience. The gifts you send reflect your business, so they need to convey the right message.

Our answer: Our Gift Team can help you design custom gifts that present your brand in the best possible light, and our branded redemption experience ensures you’re front and center at every stage of the gifting process.

Time management

Managing the entire gifting process alongside regular business operations can be overwhelming, and the holiday season is a busy period anyway. Dedicating time and resources to gift planning and distribution can strain already limited resources.

Our answer: Outsource! Get in touch with us, the earlier the better, and let us do our thing.
