Tech Accessories on the Rise

While advanced technology and cool gadgets often take the spotlight, tech accessories – such as wireless chargers, phone accessories and speakers – are growing in the marketplace while quietly improving the lives of mobile device consumers.

The adoption of mobile devices worldwide is driving the global tech accessories market to grow to more than $100M by 2023, according to Research Nester, a leading service provider for strategic market research and consulting. 

The demand for personalization of tech accessories reflects the growth in this product category. Here are three accessory types that FUSION OF IDEAS’ clients are creating brand experiences for.

Wireless chargers 

The vast majority of Americans – 96 percent – now own a mobile device of some kind. Aside from its practicality, wireless chargers are growing in popularity because you don’t have to worry about the possible mess from tangled cords.

FarmLink Reaps the Benefits of a Strong Brand Experience

FarmLink, a Canadian-based grain marketing company, recently hosted its third-annual Grain World Conference and Tradeshow: the only annual Western Canadian event to offer global networking opportunities and exposure to the grain industry.

To build a stronger presence at the event, FarmLink partnered with FUSION OF IDEAS to customize Apple Watches to use at the two-day conference. Each Watch featured the company logo on the Watch band and on the side of the Watch case. Using a laser process, the logo was permanently etched so it will not chip, fade or rub off.

Following a successful event, FarmLink extended the brand experience to its employees by customizing Apple AirPods as holiday gifts. The company’s logo was printed in full-color on the device case using FUSION OF IDEAS’ UV color printing process.

“Thank you for delivering on our branded Apple AirPods and Watches – guests and staff absolutely loved them. Premiums like these align well with FarmLink’s brand: quality, innovation, and market leadership.” – Tenesha Lawson, FarmLink Marketing Solutions.
