Time flies when you’re having fun, doesn’t it?
Having fun, or getting things done – either way, we’ve found ourselves at the end of the 2022/23 Financial Year already! And, before you get ready to pop the champagne the time is nigh to dig in and set yourself up to hit the ground running come July.
It’s all about using your marketing budget before you lose it and we have a few ideas to get you started so you can maximise your spend while maximising the benefits!
1// New Starters
Get sorted and thank yourself later when it comes to onboarding the new kids on the block. Welcome gifts to new employees is a sure way to get things off on the right foot while instilling positive values and ethos from the get go. After all PPAI found that 57% of the US workforce would stay with a company that provides promotional products to their employees. Check-out our ‘Welcome Aboard’ merch pack where the hard works been done for you!
2// Event Extras
When it comes to events and conferences sticking to budgets can be the biggest challenge of them all! So, work smarter not harder and spend the remaining FY budget now to get some event extras that will be sure to impress. From branded goodie bags, stickers, lanyards, notebooks, pens, coffee cups and more the sky is the limit! Get your brand out there and go the extra mile now while you can.

3// Super Star Staff
It’s no secret that happy employees make for better productivity and therefore a better business all round, so why not take this chance to treat them to a mid-year pick-me-up to keep the good times rolling? It’s all about the benefits – after all 80% of workers would rather stay in a job with benefits than take one that offered more pay but no benefits. Plus, PPAI found that 57% of the US workforce would stay with a company that provides promotional products to their employees - retention baby, retention! For employee gifts, create your own bundle or choose from a pre-designed merch pack. Otherwise, eco and tech products are evergreen winners.
