The Client & Brief

OneSource Virtual reached out to us looking for a huge amount of advent calendars and greeting cards to be sent out to their customers, prospects and partners. We had the pleasure of adding this well-known company to our client list.

OneSource Virtual is a leading provider of Workday services, solutions and products. They adopt a customer-centric approach to deliver measurable outcomes daily.

The Client & Brief

30 Day Advent Calendar

30 day advent calendars were produced for OneSource with the same dimensions as our normal traditional advent calendars but with 30 days instead. 

30 pieces of solid luxury milk chocolates were produced and are suitable for vegetarians, kosher and halal.

The advent calendar was digitally printed with full colour, had perforated windows and silver foil backing. The foil backing was an additional cost but it does keep the contents fresher. The front and back of the printed calendar are different, the front is more basic with images and the back is a very simple design with a message from the brand and the necessary nutritional information.

Quantity - 4000
Size: 200mm x 275mm x 10mm
Weight: 75g
Shelf life: 12 months

Custom Greeting Cards

Clients and customers were widely thought about with the addition of custom greeting cards being placed inside each mailer as well as the seasonal advent calendars. 

The cards design was different to the printed calendar but was similar to match the theme of their overall product. Inside was a well thought out message and was signed by the CEO.  A5 portrait cards were produced with four colour process printing to both sides with them being folded and trimmed to size. 

Quantity: 4000

Custom Greeting Cards

Packaging & Extra's

This was a big Christmas project with each one of the 4000 business calendars being sent out to seperate addresses. In this project we included individual mailers, address labels, shipping and then fulfilling all these orders including sending them out seperately.

Each label was created and printed, placed onto the outermailers with the greeting cards and advent calendars then placed into them. They were then safely packaged up and sent out within a short time frame.

Address labels: 35mm x 90mm
Large letter: up to 130g
Quantity: 4000

How to Customise Luxury Advent Calendars for Your Business

customising-business-advent-calendarsThe holiday season is a time of joy, giving, and spreading cheer. One popular and effective way for businesses to engage with their audience during this festive period is by offering luxury advent calendars. These beautifully designed calendars provide a delightful countdown to Christmas and can be customised to reflect your brand's unique identity and values. In this blog post, we will explore creative ways to personalise luxury advent calendars, from packaging and contents to the overall design, allowing you to create a memorable and impactful experience for your customers.

 

1. Reflect Your Brand's Aesthetic: When customising luxury advent calendars, it's crucial to ensure they align with your brand's aesthetic. Consider incorporating your logo, colour scheme, and overall design elements into the calendar's packaging. This will create a cohesive and recognisable visual identity, reinforcing your brand in the minds of your customers.

 

2. Curate Tailored Contents: Luxury advent calendars are all about surprises and delighting your customers each day leading up to Christmas. Take the opportunity to curate contents that align with your brand and resonate with your target audience. This could include exclusive products, limited editions, or even collaborations with other brands that complement your offerings. Remember, the more unique and valuable the contents, the greater the excitement and anticipation for each day.

 

3. Embrace Sustainability: In today's environmentally conscious world, incorporating sustainability into your luxury advent calendar can enhance your brand's reputation and appeal. Opt for eco-friendly packaging materials, such as recyclable or biodegradable options, to showcase your commitment to sustainability. Consider partnering with ethical suppliers or featuring products that promote sustainable living, further reinforcing your brand's values.

 

4. Engage Through Interactive Design: Make your luxury advent calendar an interactive experience for your customers. Consider incorporating interactive elements such as hidden compartments, puzzles, or QR codes that lead to exclusive digital content. By adding an extra layer of engagement, you can create a memorable experience that extends beyond the physical calendar, fostering a deeper connection with your brand.

 

5. Personalisation and Limited Editions: Offering personalised luxury advent calendars or limited editions can generate excitement and exclusivity among your customers. This customisation can be as simple as including the recipient's name on the packaging or tailoring the contents to their preferences. Limited editions, featuring unique designs or rare items, can create a sense of urgency and encourage customers to act swiftly, enhancing the calendar's perceived value.

 

6. Collaborate with Influencers or Artists: Partnering with influencers or artists can add a touch of creativity and uniqueness to your luxury advent calendar. Collaborate with influencers who align with your brand values to create co-branded calendars or include their signature items. Alternatively, commission an artist to design a one-of-a-kind calendar or contribute artwork to the packaging. These collaborations can generate buzz, expand your reach, and make your calendar stand out from the competition.

 

Conclusion: Customising luxury advent calendars presents a tremendous opportunity for businesses to showcase their brand, engage with customers, and create a memorable holiday experience. By reflecting your brand's aesthetic, curating tailored contents, embracing sustainability, incorporating interactive design elements, offering personalisation and limited editions, and collaborating with influencers or artists, you can create a truly unique and remarkable advent calendar that resonates with your target audience. Remember, the key is to capture the spirit of the season while authentically representing your brand and its values. Happy customising, and may your luxury advent calendar become a cherished holiday tradition for your customers!
