When It Comes to Corporate Gift Wrapping, Is Company Branding Important?

Gourmet Basket August 16, 2019

Corporate gifting is one of the best marketing strategies available – yet, it’s widely underutilised. There’s great power in company branding, particularly when it’s packaged up in a personalised way. Making a lasting impression on clients and business partners is one way to keep your company ahead of its competitors, and is a great way to boost brand awareness and establish long-term relationships.

The benefits of company branding on corporate gifts

Corporate gift wrapping is not only a great way to show clients and colleagues you appreciate them, but it’s also a good strategy for maintaining long-term success. Great corporate gifts make clients feel that you care for them and that you value their business. This is important for the success of your company because all business relies on its customers. If your clients feel valued, they are more likely to stick with you as well as generate more leads and clientele through positive referrals.

Along with happy customers and clients, company branding on corporate gifts also gives you:

Enhanced brand recognition

Putting time and thought into company branding and packaging can have a huge payoff to your business’ success. When you think of all the top brands in the world, each of them have a successful branding strategy. For example, Tiffany & Co.’s little blue box or the crisp clean lines of the Apple logo.

Branding helps people recognize your company and develop an impression. Good corporate branding and packaging can help to build brand recognition and use personalised gifts to reinforce your brand and message.

Brand loyalty and awareness

Corporate gifts with company branding are a proven strategy to secure repeat business and customer referrals, as well as to build trust and loyalty with clients. In fact, studies have shown that 79% of customers reported they were more likely to do business with the same company after receiving a gift.

Our own studies have proven that 100% of corporate customers surveyed reported that sending gifts had made a positive impact on their business.

Corporate gifting with company branding not only tells a story about your brand, but also enhances the relationship they have with the recipient. If a client receives a memorable gift, not only will they recall your brand and become more likely to remain loyal to your company, but they also are more likely to refer your company to others. Keeping up customer loyalty is one of the best ways to make repeat sales, which is more viable than making new ones.

Improved relationships

Giving company branded gifts keeps the lines of communication open between the gift giver and receiver. In business, this is incredibly important. It can be used as a way to ‘keep in touch’ with long-term clients, to form new relationships with business partners, or to improve existing relationships between clients or colleagues. When giving a corporate gift, you can choose to include a personalised message or note which provides an added element of communication and sincerity.
