A few weeks ago, we put together 80 welcome boxes for a financial services firm that was hosting a meeting in the triangle, and it was such a fun project. They wanted everyone who came to feel welcome and at home from the moment they arrived, so we spent a lot of time thinking about who would be walking into the room and what they might enjoy.
It is so much fun imagining people tasting some of North Carolina’s best flavors and learning about the thoughtful and dedicated people who work so hard to bring their flavors to us. The icing on the cake was hearing how much all of the guests enjoyed their welcome treats!

We loved making these gifts to welcome a group of executives to Pinehurst for a meeting. North Carolina-made treats to enjoy in their rooms and a special NC dogwood candle to bring home as a keepsake make for a warm welcome.
Pinehurst is a place where Carolina hospitality is on display at all times and we were thrilled to add to the experience. 🎁

This is the difference of working with a small business.
Mistakes happen and, in this story, not one of them was made in bad faith. A digit got transposed on an address. A shipping company tried to be helpful and made a wrong call which led to the wrong woman receiving a box with her name & address on it.

The difference is what happens next.

She could have kept that gift and nobody would ever have known. She called instead, and when she called, I picked up, because I have never been a fan of automated phone messages. Without that call I would never have known anything was wrong, and a friend in a brand new house would still be waiting.

So the gift is hers, with my thanks. And I got in the car and drove the replacement to the right front door myself.

Mistakes happen everywhere. What you are really choosing is who is on the other end when they do.

Swipe through for the whole thing and the very happy ending🏡

Coming home to a surprise on your doorstep is its own small thrill. You didn’t order anything. You weren’t expecting anything. And there it is, waiting, with a bow bright enough to catch your eye from down the street.
There is excitement thinking about who may have sent it, wondering why they sent it, what could be inside?!?! We love helping to deliver these unexpected moments of joy. If you would like to send someone an unexpected boost, we would love to help you.

We loved putting these boxes together.

There's something we really enjoy about introducing people to everything that makes North Carolina special. The tastes, the history, the makers, that whole feeling of being welcomed somewhere new.

These were waiting at check-in for guests coming into Charlotte for a few days of meetings. Inside was a mix of goodies made right here in Charlotte, a Spirit of Charlotte card with the history and interesting stories of the city, and an Artisan Story Sheet so they could get to know the specialty producers behind it all.

That's the part we love most. Not just giving someone something to snack on, but giving them a real feel for the place they've landed and the people who make it what it is.

It's why we do this the way we do.

A client reached out on a tight timeline. They knew exactly what they wanted to send their customers for an event, they just didn't have time to track it all down and put it together themselves.

So, they showed us what they had in mind, and we took it from there. Sourced everything, packed the boxes with multiple branded elements, & got them out the door in time.

Sometimes people already know exactly what they want to give. They just need a hand making it happen.
