A hybrid working style offers employees more flexibility, cutting down on time spent commuting and reducing the negative impact on the environment by reducing the need for transportation. After the pandemic, even workplaces that didn’t offer this option are now open to the idea of hybrid offices. Of course, some jobs and sectors always need employees to be physically present, and some can always choose to be remote working. But for those who can, a hybrid workplace can offer the best of both worlds.
This has opened up possibilities for promotional products that convey a company’s consideration for employees or clients. Whether a small group of employees or a few clients are chosen for appreciation, the company gift can be more individualized, and the budget can be higher. Pegboard offers custom printing, mailing, and branding services to clients in California’s Central Valley and Central Coast. They help small and midsize businesses design company gifts that show their appreciation for customers and employees.
Company Gifts That Are Useful In Hybrid Workplaces
1. A Transition Kit for Home and Office
Employees who now have no dedicated office desks or computers travel with their office essentials to the office when needed. Helpful items for these employees could be backpacks for their laptops, pouches for required items, folders or files, etc. These can be branded merchandise with a custom print of the business’s logo or name. Customized company stationery, including custom pens and pencils, can also be included.
2. Headsets and Webcam
A good headset is a handy gift for employees who make many phone calls. Noise-canceling headphones with a good microphone are an excellent choice. These ensure that employees and customers or business associates have better quality phone calls. This helps for a better customer experience and employee satisfaction. If the business requires video calls with customers, a webcam that offers better clarity and color than a built-in model can also be helpful.
3. Custom Packaged Food Gifts
Custom packaged food items are great gifts for small businesses. Though preferences and allergies are essential if a business wants to send snacks or food as a company gift, food gifts can convey care and appreciation. These gifts can be a box of artisanal chocolates or doughnuts from a favorite local place. Custom packaging or custom labels can make it beautiful and give the recipient a feeling of being unique.
4. Gifts That Encourage Healthy Lifestyles
Employees and clients are an essential part of a business, and their health is also necessary. A custom package of healthy snacks can be a great gift. This can be linked to a team challenge, like a minimum number of steps a day. There can be branded apparel or accessories given as gifts for this challenge. Exercise-related gifts like yoga mats, fitness trackers, handheld weights, elastic bands, etc., can be given.
5. Houseplants
Houseplants can make good gifts. Planters that are quirky or in colors that reflect the company can be custom printed with the company logo or employee names. Adding a bit of green in homes or offices has its benefits.
Company gifts need not be given only on holidays. They can be provided for work anniversaries, to welcome a new employee, or even as tokens of appreciation for a job well done. The above gifts are suitable for employees working from home or office.
