Promotional products for HR + people ops teams
New-hire kits, work anniversaries, retention milestones, and recognition awards - branded merchandise programs designed for HR teams running people-ops at scale.
HR's job is to make people feel like they belong on day one and every milestone after. Branded merchandise done well does that for a fraction of what onboarding software costs.

What works in onboarding kits (the short answer)
The 5-piece core that consistently produces "I'd post this on LinkedIn" reactions: laptop sleeve or backpack, insulated tumbler, hardback notebook + premium pen, one quality embroidered apparel piece, and a handwritten welcome card. Full kit framework + budget tiers here.
How we make HR's life easier
- Kitting + fulfillment service. For ongoing-hire programs we warehouse the components and assemble + ship per new-hire as you onboard them. You don't touch a shipping label.
- Apparel sizing kept stocked. S, M, L, XL, XXL of every embroidered piece, replenished as you draw down.
- One PO, multiple ship-to. Order 200 kits, ship to 200 addresses. Bulk pricing, individual shipments.
- Re-order is one click. Same product, same art, same supplier - we keep the file. New-hire #25 gets the same kit as new-hire #1.
Common questions
How many onboarding kits should I order?
Forecast 6-12 months of hires + 20% buffer. Most kit components are shelf-stable - apparel can sit on warehouse shelves indefinitely.
What about remote hires in different countries?
Most components ship internationally. For larger international teams we sometimes ship apparel from a regional supplier for cost.
Do you handle drop-shipping to home addresses?
Yes. Drop-ship per-address with tracking, or batch-ship to a central HR coordinator who hands them out.
Can the kit be co-branded with our parent company?
Yes - common for joint-venture launches and post-acquisition onboarding.
