As the recent work from home trend continues, it is more important than ever to find ways to boost team morale and solidify connections among employees. The social aspect of an in-person office has been lacking recently, prompting businesses to find new ways to stay in touch with employees.
One sure fire way that we found works to keep employees energized and to promote connectedness and engagement is custom swag boxes! A custom swag box is a personalized experience created specifically for your team. Each item in a swag box is chosen with intention and meant to be a meaningful way to make a connection with employees. By adding your unique logo to each item in your box, you have the added bonus of creating a sense of togetherness that helps bind your team together and energize them to stay motivated and positive through difficult times!
If your team morale has been low as of late and you're looking for a way to get things back on track and show your appreciation for your employees, here are some custom swag box work from home ideas that are sure to help.
A Sweet Treat
Everyone loves a good snack, and what better item to add to a care package than a sweet treat. One of our absolute favorite swag boxes to make is a s’mores kit! It’s not only a tasty delight, but a thoughtful way to show your employees that you care and want to make them smile. This option is perfect for employees with young families as well. It will be fun for the whole household.
Self Care to Show You Care
Letting your workers know that you are thinking about them and care about their wellbeing is especially important during times like these. A great way of achieving this is by sending them a sense of calm and comfort in the form of a gift. You might include a nice fleece zip up or comfortable hoodie with your company logo, a coffee mug and custom coffee, and maybe even a candle or a desk ornament to brighten up their work from home space to make them feel as comfy as possible. You can get really creative with this one and think about what would make you more comfortable in a home office.
Physical and Mental Wellness in One
Mental and physical wellness go hand-in-hand, which is why we here at Liquid Screen Design dedicate a lot of time and effort to promoting the mental and physical wellness of our employees.
The best way we’ve found to do this so far is virtual yoga! Not only has yoga provided us with a way to release stress and focus on mindfulness, it has been a great bonding experience for our team!
As a way to show you care about your employees health and wellness, consider providing them with a custom yoga mat, yoga blocks, a nice water bottle, headphones, a fitness tracker, a journal, a comfortable t-shirt to workout in, or calming essential oils.
Happy Hour Like Never Before
For many of us, a cocktail at the end of the week is just what the doctor ordered. With this in mind, why not make a custom cocktail kit for your hard-working employees? Cocktail kits are a great way to be creative. You can customize your drink kit to reflect your company in some way by coming up with a unique cocktail just for your staff.
Our team of artists can help transform your ideas into a reality with this kit so be sure to have some fun with it!
One of the most common ways that employees connect is by going out for happy hour or cocktail night. It’s a really fun way to get to know your coworkers outside the office and learn more about what’s important to them. Just because your employees might be working from home now-a-days doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be able to enjoy a fun night with their coworkers. This is why we’ve been seeing more and more virtual happy hours!
A virtual happy hour is a great way to get employees to bond, especially if it's sponsored by the office! The pandemic has changed the rules when it comes to social gatherings but there is no reason why we can’t get together even if it is virtually using zoom.
Tech to Recharge Your Team
One of the best ways to boost morale is with something fun and interesting that your employees have never seen before. For this type of swag box, we love to add unique branded tech in with a few other custom items. Creating an office at home can be a struggle, but you can help your employees out by providing them with some essentials. A custom Moleskine notebook, a charging pad, charging cables, or a nice pair of wireless headphones can be great items to add to your tech focused swag box.
One of our current favorite tech items that have been a continuous crowd pleaser as of late are these super awesome power bars shown in the picture below! Disguised to look like a granola bar, these portable chargers are a really fun way to say thank you to your staff for always working hard.
