How This Top Ad Agency Builds Lasting Client Relationships

Advertising company Casual Precision has seen the value of saying thanks to its clients through thoughtful and impactful gifts. 

Over the past few years, the marketers at Casual Precision have elevated their client appreciation gifts by giving custom-branded premium technology. Some of their most well-received gifts include premium audio and tech accessories, such as Apple AirPods, Apple Watch, Bose Frames, reMarkable tablets and Apple AirPods Max.

Creating Unboxing Experiences to Show Value

Casual Precision goes beyond just purchasing the gift and sending it to the recipient. 

The company takes the extra step to create a memorable unboxing experience that creates a “wow” factor when the gift is opened. This is done through customized packaging and a catchy, personalized message when the package is opened. On the gift itself, Casual Precision works with FUSION OF IDEAS’ creative team to add custom artwork using laser etch or direct print.

“As an advertising agency, we know the importance of branding,” said Brett Charest, founder at Casual Precision. “…Unique personalization for client gifts really showcases our ability to brand well. We want [our clients] to know that not only do we value their company’s brand, but we value them as individuals.”

Branding Company Devices for Security and Personality

Casual Precision also has recently taken on customizing its company-owned devices to standardize and track its technology. 

“The ability to logo and number our company-owned devices for our employees has really streamlined the tracking and visibility of who has certain devices,” said Brett. “This has been a tremendous help while our company has been working remote over the last few years, easily documenting which items have been issued on a very visible level.”

The company’s mobile devices and laptops are outfitted with the company logo and tracking numbers permanently printed or etched on the devices.

Brett added, “Plus, I love seeing our employees wearing or using our branded devices on client and internal calls. It’s a constant reminder of how far we have come in a short period of time as a company.”

Casual Precision employees are proud to represent the company with their branded technology.

Kids of Courage Uses Branded Technology to Further Its Mission

“Wearing something with a logo of an organization that is close to my heart is personal to me. Not only is it a conversation starter, it is also a reminder of why I am a part of Kids of Courage.”

These were the words of Josh, a recipient of a custom branded Apple AirPods Max from Kids of Courage. Josh, who was gifted the device as a recognition for his fundraising efforts, proudly dons his new wireless headphones even though he is not “a regular headphone user.”

Kids of Courage is a New York-based nonprofit organization that gives children with medical illnesses opportunities to participate in year-round activities and medically supervised trips. 

“We love to give personalized technology to our supporters because it is unique and different,” said Naftali Solomon, Kids of Courage Director of Operations. “While the gifts are not the reason why they fundraise, our families and volunteers love to see the incentive list and find something to set their goal for.”

Naftali added, “The positive feedback we have gotten is encouraging, and it is a win-win situation to be able to thank our supporters and at the same time, further the organization’s mission.”
