“It’s better to give than to receive.” While this may come across as a cliché, there is real truth behind it – and the old adage applies to more than just your personal life. Corporate gifting can reap benefits whether it’s from an employee or client standpoint.

Take a closer look at the performance marketing industry and you’ll notice everyone trying to catch the next consumer headwind and ride every percentage uptick as long as possible. We’re constantly riding a wave of data, all in the name of better ROI.

Retail brands are bigger than ever in the promo space, and they’re changing the way people approach corporate gifting. Along with premium quality, style and performance, brands have a distinct identity people know and trust – which makes them a great way to create meaningful connections with clients, employees and more.

Wanting to make a difference for the greater good is a universal desire but, for many consumers, it’s hard to know where to start. They feel like they need to identify something to give up in order to have the means to give back. But what if customers didn’t have to choose? What if they could still get the things they want and need while paying it forward?

Believe it or not, it’s time to start thinking about year-end employee gifts. Branded drinkware is a popular choice for lots of reasons: It’s a versatile gift that comes in handy in the office, at home or on the go – not to mention it’s a great way to show off a customer’s logo. And with hundreds of bottles, mugs and tumblers – from eco-friendly styles to popular retail brands – we’ve got the right style at the right price!

Print marketing continues to be an extremely effective way to market a business. Brands can choose from a wide array of printed communication products, from brochures and mailers to signs to product packaging. Printed products are designed to inform and attract new customers and retain existing ones, but completing important print projects can be difficult when providers encounter supply chain disruptions, transit delays, supplier labor shortages, and other complications.
