Gift-with-Purchase Best Practices


Success is finding the right solution for your customers. What are the best practices in creating a gift with purchase that everyone will love?


3 • Innovation matters. We have received 98 patents and have 30 pending for unique solutions created for our customers. We have won 37 major awards in seven years. We have 45 trademark applications and 41 issued trademarks.

• There are solutions for every budget. No matter your budget, incorporating our key findings into the development of your gift-withpurchase will have a significant impact on the perceived value of not only the packaging itself, but the gift card, as well.

• Year-round solutions are key. Birthday is the second largest gifting occasion behind holiday. Graduation, thank you, and congratulations round out the top five most popular gifting occasions. If a custom solution for key occasions is not available, “evergreen” packaging is a great way to meet the needs of many with just one option. Additional Insights
