When I started beCAUSE minded, I had the big dream that we would be able to shift corporate gifting dollars to for-cause businesses. Of course, every order for personal or corporate gifts makes a difference. It’s just that many businesses have a lot more money for gifting than individuals. According to Forbes, the corporate gifting category is a $242 billion dollar/year industry. So, with some simple budget allocations, billions of dollars/year could be directed toward social enterprises who are working to make the world a better place.
While we are a long way from the billion-dollar marker, we have seen success on our journey so far, with many companies allocating their budgets to our gifts that give back. It’s fun to see the mixes our clients have created– selections that make the beCAUSE minded boxes unique to their brand. Today we’re excited to share a few of our favorites to help inspire your corporate gifting!
1. Nordic Naturals’ Custom Towels
Nordic Naturals is a high-quality fish oil supplement company. They were our very first bulk order. We worked with them to create a unique mix of products that would align with their company values and branding.
Nordic Naturals values natural products and holistic wellness. In their gift boxes, we included our Muscle Relief Bath Salts, Muscle Release Oil, and a Dry Brush. We added in a blue Pestemal towel to go along with their company colors and added a branded tag to the towels so the recipient would always remember where it came from! We also incorporated some of their products into the gift boxes for additional branding and to increase their product trial. They shipped the products in bulk to our warehouse and we packaged them in the boxes.
We love how Nordic Naturals really made the boxes feel authentic to their brand!
2. Music Label’s Custom Boxes
In 2021, I got a call from a well-known music label interested in purchasing our gift boxes for their employees. I remember asking how many employees they had and being shocked at the number…and then immediately calling our logistics coordinator to ensure we could even fill that kind of order! She assured me we could and we moved forward!
They provided three gift box options for their employees. The most popular of the three was a mix we affectionately called “Box 2.” This box included our Ash Camp Blanket, 2 White Taino Mugs, Hand-knotted coasters, Chamomile Tea, and a 4oz Lavender Tin Candle.
This was the first time we realized the Ash Blanket could fit in an 11×16 box! A few months later we incorporated this key learning into the beHYGGE gift box!
3. Thompson Accounting’s Wellness Boxes
Thompson Accounting is in the wine country of northern California. In previous years, they had purchased local wine gift boxes. However, their CEO is moving toward gifts that promote wellness, and are appropriate for her sober clients. We were excited to work with her on a wellness gift box that fit her needs!
The CEO didn’t want a lot of fuss. She’s super, super busy and we were happy to help take some of the stress of corporate gifting off her plate. We created a “good morning” box with both Coffee and Green Tea (plus a honey sampler) to make sure they get their preferred morning beverage. And we paired this with two artisan Taino Mugs. Plus, we added her company logo using a custom branding iron we had made just for Thompson Accounting.
We received great feedback from her clients, which made both the CEO and I very happy!
