Giving away cool swag and thoughtful gifts creates a lasting impression and treats attendees or team members to something special. Today, options for these go far beyond the traditional company shirt or hat to customized food and drink.
Jones Soda Co. based in Seattle, Washington, is an easy go-to for craft sodas with custom labels. Any image and copy planners want can appear on the bottles, and there is a range of timeless Jones flavors to choose from like berry lemonade, root beer, and green apple. These items provide a fun way to stand out, and the company can even create custom flavors if the order size satisfies requirements.
Sommsation is an online wine marketplace based in West Chester, Pennsylvania, that features over 50 independent wineries and also offers sommelier-led tasting experiences. This year, it launched a new service called The Gift List, a concierge-based service that automates gift giving and is centered on high-quality, limited-production wines. Planners looking to gift may simply contact the Sommsation concierge, complete the gifting template, and return it with a preferred method of payment—Sommsation then chooses a wine gift based on the selection criteria, encloses a personalized message, and ensures delivery by the specified date.
