🌟 FAMILY SWAG PACK FOR EMPLOYEE MORALE

1. Family Packs

FEATURED SWAG PICKS: Custom box, branded jump rope, memory game, Colorable Tote Bag, Coloring Book with Logo 

WHY WE LOVE IT:

We love this branded company merchandise pack for employees because, quite simply, it’s the kind of supportive gift the working parents on your team will thank you for. It’s back-to-school season and many parents are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Because working remotely and having to manage virtual schooling is tough on parents, it’s important to pay attention to your team’s workload and support at-home activities they can enjoy with their family. You want to show you are supportive and ensure they enjoy their time at home. Companies that give gifts that the whole family can enjoy win by showing their employees they really care on a deeper level. At SwagUp, company swag is extended to family members so they can all enjoy the perks of the company together.

🌟 PET WAG PACK FOR TEAMS

2. Pet Appreciation Day

FEATURED SWAG PICKS: Branded box, logoed Frisbee, Custom print bandana, and branded poop bag holder

WHY WE LOVE IT:

If your company is crazy about their doggos, including branded merch for the fur babies is sure to be a hit! During this pandemic, those with furry friends have found themselves with a new co-worker who very much likes long walks and tasty snacks. We love this pet appreciation idea because, well, who doesn’t love their fur babies? This pack is especially great for companies that have pet-friendly workspaces. It’s also a nice nod to the “real life” office environment.

RECOMMENDED FOR: Pet Friendly Working Spaces, Company and Team Culture, Employee Appreciation, Fun Branded Company Merch

3. Painting Night

FEATURED SWAG PICKS: All the supplies you need for a virtual painting class

WHY WE LOVE IT:

If you are looking for some team activities, we love a good painting night! It helps with team building and gets everyone out of their comfort zone. This activity is not only relaxing but also leaves everyone with a nice painted souvenir they can hold on to and be proud of (or at least fond of – beauty is in the eye of the beholder! 😂)  This team building activity is one everyone can partake in and be reminded of anytime they look at their amazing painting they created.

WHY WE LOVE IT:

When you work in an office, getting pens, notebooks, and stationary in general is pretty easy. We think supporting your team with office supplies at home shouldn’t be much different! This branded swag pack has all the essentials someone would need to work from home and be set up for success. It will boost morale at home, which is why we love this swag pack idea!

At SwagUp, we have a redeem page our teams use to request branded desk items they may need like pens, mugs, and notebooks. If they are going to work from home, sending them branded desk items reminds them of being in an office and creates company culture awareness in their home!

WHY WE LOVE IT:

Relaxation swag pack for teams and employees! This swag pack is set to help your teams ensure they get some rest. Let’s face it, we all work more when working remotely. This is especially true for companies that had to face layoffs or major changes internally. When companies experience changes or difficulties together, sending employees a swag pack to relax is both thoughtful and human. Working in these stressful environments can take a toll on everyone emotionally. We love this branded swag pack since it allows for companies to remind teams it’s not only ok to take a break, it’s encouraged!

7. Virtual Fun Team Events

FEATURED SWAG PICKS: Laughs and Excitement with dedicated host! 

WHY WE LOVE IT:

Making time for team-building activities is important to build great teams. Especially as companies are scaling or acquiring another company. Offering a night of trivia is a healthy and fun way for everyone to get competitive while getting to know each other! We especially like this for teams that may not as much contact with each other – a friendly competition allows for those teammates that don’t typically talk to each other to connect. This trivia night will have everyone breaking into teams to compete against each other and claim the title of Trivia Champion. The host is not only funny but also does an amazing job of hosting so you can relax and enjoy some time with your team!

RECOMMENDED FOR: Team Building, Company Spirit, Building Connections
