Believe it or not, now is the ideal time to start planning your holiday promotional products. July might seem early, but trust us, getting a head start has some major perks. Whether you’re thinking about client gifts, event swag, or special holiday items, here’s why you should dive into your holiday planning now:
Beat the year-end rush – Getting a jump start on your holiday promotional products now means you’ll avoid the hectic rush later. As we get closer to the holidays, inventory of popular products may run low, and production and shipping times may increase. By planning early, you’ll ensure your top choice and smooth sailing.
Timeline for success – Starting your planning in July allows you to perfect your products. Start the conversation now to discuss your design and get samples. Place orders in September/October to have items in hand by November, giving you plenty of time to distribute or ship in December.
Standout customization – Adding personal touches like your company logo, a special message, or unique packaging makes your promotional products memorable. Starting in July gives you plenty of time to perfect these details and create something truly special.
Time to make it a kit – Straub can create professionally hand-packaged kits, bundling select items to make your gift stand out! You can even include things like a hand-written message for that personal touch. However, planning early is essential to secure your top choices on schedule.
Stress less – The holiday season is always busy enough without last-minute planning. By getting your planning done now, you’ll have one less thing to worry about and more time to focus on other important tasks and enjoy the season.
Stronger marketing strategy – Early planning allows you to integrate your promotional products into your overall holiday marketing plan seamlessly. This makes for a more cohesive and effective campaign.
While summer is in full swing, take some time to plan ahead for the holidays. With Straub, you don’t have to “go it alone” – we’re here to help you pick the perfect product to fit your audience, budget, and message.
