Whether you’re organizing a virtual meeting for ten or a digital conference for thousands, event boxes or “kits” are a great way to create a sensory experience for your attendees.
Let’s be real, nothing replaces face-to-face events and often the freebies, giveaways, and favors are what participants have come to appreciate and expect. Luckily, this aspect of an in-person event is 100% duplicatable for online experiences with the added benefit of having the gift delivered straight to your recipient’s mailbox or front door. You can’t beat that!
Below are our top five favorite virtual event kits and boxes that can be used for conference gifts.
1. SNACK BOX
Let’s be honest, food is likely what participants are missing most from in-person experiences. Why not bring those morning and afternoon breaks directly to their door? Better yet! How about you allow your recipients to choose which snacks they’d like to receive! Win-win. This snack box and online redemption process is customizable and streamlined. You can even add additional items to your attendee’s box such as branded swag or event collateral.
2. COCKTAIL KIT
A second, top [shelf] component of live events that attendees are likely experiencing withdrawals from are the spirits a.k.a. alcohol! Why not put their margarita, old fashioned, moscow mule, or mocktail in the mail? Yes, it’s possible! This kit comes complete with all the ingredients needed to create an elevated cocktail for your attendees. There are multiple customization options and the ability to add items to your attendee’s box. You can even hire a virtual mixologist to transform your online meeting or event into a cocktail workshop. Cheers!
3. BOX-PERIENCE
We work with multiple partners who offer what we call, box-periences. These are kits that pair with a virtual activity. Examples include live workshops for succulent or floral arrangements, essential oil blends or candle making, body scrub and lotion concocting, cookie or cupcake decorating, chef or mixologist demonstrations, etc. The possibilities are virtually limitless. The kits include all of the supplies needed to complete the activity and are perfect for team building.
4. PHILANTHROPIC PACK
For those looking to give back, we have the perfect conference gift for you! This partner provides a catalogue of snacks and specialty items sourced from small businesses throughout the United States. Some offerings are tied to specific philanthropic missions such as reusable products that prevent plastic waste and contribute to organizations bringing clean water to people who need it most. Choose any of their unique and high quality products to curate your event pack. You can also contribute your own items, and have the ability to brand the box mailer and card insert.
5. LUXURY GIFT
Following the art and science of Giftology, the best conference gifts are generous and personalized. This virtual luxury gift experience will leave your attendees feeling appreciated and inspired. Guests are invited to select a gift they love through a custom website designed for your event. There are several categories of high end products to choose from. Though branding on the physical items are intentionally limited so as not to depreciate the value of the gift, there are however, multiple touchpoints throughout the gifting process that are customizable and most importantly, memorable.
