Happy Holidays! ... kind of. It is already July and many businesses need to start thinking about their holiday packaging if they haven't already! We are going to be doing a "Christmas in July" series giving you the rundown on how custom packaging can elevate your brand during the holidays. First up in our series is advent calendars! Advent calendars are a great way to build excitement during the holidays and brands should definitely be taking advantage of them. Some people think about the cardboard box-type advent calendar with the small piece of chocolate in it when we talk about advent calendars, but they can be so much more! This fun holiday tradition can be an opportunity to give consumers a taste of your business by providing advent calendars with small samples of your products. That could be cosmetics, jewelry, food, and so much more! Check out our blog post to learn more about why you should be taking advantage of advent calendars during the holidays! https://lnkd.in/eAVUa9xZ #merchantboxes #christmas #holidays #christmasinjuly #custompackaging #adventcalendars #advent #holiday #holidaytradition #tradtions #family #packaging #cosmetics #jewelry #food #series

What’s on your Christmas list? Even if you are a hardened last-minute shopper, you must be aware that Christmas is fast approaching. And with Christmas comes the task – joyous or otherwise – of buying of gifts for family, friends and, perhaps, colleagues. If you’re lucky, the people you are buying for will offer some guidance in the form of a wish list. But they often don’t actually want the things they put on the list: they don’t want pyjamas, they want to be cosy, warm and comfortable; they don’t want jeans, they want the brand label that identifies them with a particular tribe; they don’t want just any video game, they want the specific game that all their friends are playing so they can be part of that community. In short, it’s not the actual gift itself that matters, it’s the experience, the emotion, a set of values, and a sense of kinship that the gift provides. This is an important concept for businesses to understand: we aren’t just selling products and services, we’re inspiring emotion and creating communities with our brands. And that's true all year round, not just at Christmas. Find out more in the article “Experiences not things” on our website: https://lnkd.in/gMafPBfq. And leave a comment or drop us a message if you’d like to have a chat about how you can improve how customers engage with your brand. #Brand #BrandExperience #BrandCommunity #Marketing #CustomerEngagement
