How to Capture Holiday Magic (and Earn Brand Loyalty)

  Marketing The holidays are all about connection. Whether it’s our family and friends, our coworkers and team, or our customers and vendors, this is the time we seek to share the magic of the holidays with those we care about and appreciate the most. We can’t deny that COVID-19 is still affecting our lives in many ways. From some remaining hesitant to participate in large gatherings to a longing for something real and tangible, there are many considerations to planning this year’s celebration. AlphaGraphics Tulsa is here and ready to help. Holiday Boxes Holiday boxes offer a unique and versatile opportunity to show your appreciation, reward hard work, or share something familiar. Themed boxes will bring smiles to your customers, employees, or friends and family. And, they can take on whatever flair you want. The boxes themselves can range from simple to elegant. What we see most often are white boxes with a top or wrap-around sticker applied. These are great for small quantities needs and provide the ability for each box to have a unique favor. With AlphaGraphics’ digital print capabilities, adding a different name or picture to each box is just as easy as them all being the same. For large quantities and a higher-end look, boxes can be fully printed. This provides a complete and elegant look for that special impression. And the items you put in the boxes, those, can range from promotional items to more expensive electronics and apparel, all branded for your look. You can also include items from your company or mementos from your area. We have one team member who, recently moving from Pennsylvania, is putting together Route 66 themed boxes with items from Buck Atoms, Decopolis, and Ida Red for her friends and family stuck in the cold northeast. Holiday boxes are a place to let your imagination run wild and strike a chord with those important to you. Custom Holiday Cards How many cards did you receive last year? If you're like us, probably not many. Where the holiday season used to mean shelves, bookcases, and mantels brimming with cards, today it is a more noticed and sincere gesture that shows people you’re thinking about them. Our team can work with you to design a unique and standout card or help you find a template that can be modified to meet your specific needs. Again, with our digital print capabilities, we can even add unique elements to personalize each card. Sending cards does not have to be a chore, spending hours at your desk or kitchen table addressing the envelopes and adding a personal note to each card. Starting with a base, we can help you modify a note to say something different on each card and add your own signature in a different color ink. Then we can handle the shipping or mailing of the cards once they’re complete. Letting someone know you care and are thinking of them doesn’t have to be drudgery. Spend the time and effort on the idea, not the production. Personalized Wrapping Paper Yes, you saw that right. Imagine sending someone a gift wrapped in your company’s logo or your kids’ smiling faces. Have a special interest or hobby you love, maybe even a creation of your own? You can express that with a gift-wrapped like no one else’s. Over the years, wrapping paper has become low quality and boring; almost an afterthought. Stand apart from the other gifts. Show people you’re not just going through the motions but are really trying to brighten their season, even before they open your gift. Build Outstanding Holiday Experiences This has been a tough two years. Let’s make sure we are doing our best to bring a smile to someone’s face and a little warmth to their heart. Be unique. Don’t forget, people don’t remember what you say, they remember how you made them feel. Our team wants to work with you to plan, design, print, and create these and other elements for your holiday celebration. Give us a call or send us an email and let’s come up with some great ideas to make those important to you feel special. And remember always, We’re Better Together.
