Holiday Gift Recommendations, Tips, & More

With Kelly Lindgren, Account Manager at Go Promo

Why the best time for gift shopping is RIGHT NOW?

The holidays are a great time for companies to show their appreciation to their employees and clients. It’s important that branded gifts are thoughtful, high-quality, and memorable to ensure your employees and clients feel that gratitude!

By ordering now, you can take advantage of great early bird specials prior to the holiday rush and guarantee you get your products on time before the production and shipping lead times increase. As the fourth quarter approaches each year, product inventory levels get more volatile and production times get backed up with the surge of orders coming in. Now is the perfect time to start planning!

Bulk gift offerings: how does it work?

Buying in bulk is an affordable way to get the most for your budget. There are costs involved in putting a logo on products, such as setup fees. The more you buy, the fees spread out and lower your price per piece. It also helps with shipping costs by filling a carton full for shipment. Most of our clients will select four to six products of the same value and Go Promo builds a pop-up web store for their employees to select their gift. No money is transacted upon checkout. Instead, Go Promo invoices the company after the store closes. We then sort each order individually by who ordered what.

So, no collecting orders, sizes, colors or sorting, etc. Go Promo handles it all and has the order ready to distribute to employees upon delivery. All you need to do is email the web store link out to your staff.

Setting the industry standard.

“Our number one goal is customer service,” Kelly said. “Offering fun, friendly service with efficient, timely communication is what we strive for.” Go Promo prides itself on efficiency when working with marketing and HR professionals; they understand that time is valuable and they make the most of it with quick price quotes, proofs, and production turnaround time. “Our goal is to serve as an extension of our client’s team,” Go Promo takes the stress of ordering promotional products and apparel off clients’ plates by offering web stores and warehousing for them year-round. They also strategically plan and budget with them, buy in bulk, and warehouse all their swag items for all locations. At the end of the day, Go Promo handles all the heavy lifting for you.

“It’s pretty easy—phenomenal customer service and building great relationships,” Kelly said, when asked about Go Promo’s key to success. “We don’t make promises we can’t keep—we follow up timely and we pride ourselves on being a fun, proactive partner, and not just another vendor.” Go Promo also prides itself on hiring smart people, and their team knows that service is the absolute difference maker in the promotional products world.

Hidden fees are a common headache people face all the time, and they may not even know it—hence “hidden.” However, Go Promo approaches the game differently and provides all-inclusive pricing with no hidden fees. Most competitors give clients a price per unit and then add on setup and shipping fees after the fact. Go Promo builds it all into the price per unit up front, so clients know exactly what their cost per piece is, and once web store orders have completed, Go Promo sorts them and has it all ready for distribution. Easy peasy. Many competitors deliver the gear to you in bulk and you have to spend a full day sorting it. At the end of the day, their clients say that Go Promo’s phenomenal customer service is the biggest differentiator in making them the best.
