Unprecedented Times
The early months of 2020 will undoubtedly go down in history as the most unexpected and unprecedented of our generation. For many of us in North America, living through periods of uncertainty is a largely foreign concept. With many regions focusing on the health of their citizens by enacting quarantines, many brick and mortar locations have been forced to put their operations on hold. Others have pivoted, where they could, looking for unique ways to conduct business online or operating with reduced staff and under restricted hours.
The good news is that born out of this are creative ways to continue connecting with our communities, even during this period of uncertainty. In one of our previous blogs we provided some high-level ideas for keeping your brand connected to your community at large. In this piece, we explore some other ways to keep your company unified.
Keeping You On Brand
For a good number of businesses, the current “new normal” allows employees to work from home. As businesses and employees alike settle into a new way of doing things, this has created some new demand for “work-from-home” essentials. While products such as pens and notebooks (and staplers!) have always been office, er, staples, we’re now witnessing an emerging need for a work-from-home “uniform”. Growing in popularity have been casual slacks, sleepwear and sweatshirts - the type of clothing that keeps you both comfortable yet productive. If you’re encouraged to keep your employees unified, a branded t-shirt or a full-zip hood would be just the thing!
Of course, incentives and gifts are always a great way to help your customers keep you top of mind as well. Think outside the box and look for products that provide help in supporting a work from home environment. This is a great opportunity to send thoughtful care packages to your customers showing them you’re also keeping them in mind!
