The Power of Onboarding Packs

Written by Sam Pella | May 12, 2025 9:36:25 AM

Why First Impressions Matter
More Than Ever

Starting a new job is a milestone moment. For many employees, those first few days help shape their experience of your business and how connected they feel to your culture. That’s why onboarding packs are no longer just a nice gesture—they’re a smart, strategic tool for building strong foundations from day one.

 

 

We’ve seen a growing demand for onboarding packs that are both purposeful and personal. Over the past six months, our range has become increasingly popular as organisations seek out bespoke, home-friendly options that reflect their brand values and make new starters feel genuinely welcomed.

 

More Than Just A Welcome Gift 

 

A well-designed onboarding pack does more than introduce a company logo on a notebook or mug. It helps:

Set the tone for a positive working relationship

Build a sense of belonging from the very beginning

Reinforce company culture and values

Improve employee engagement and retention

Support a smooth transition into new roles, especially in hybrid or remote settings.

 

First impressions can help make a lasting impression - A considered onboarding experience can shape how new team members feel about your organisation for years to come.

 

Tailored Options to Suit Your Brand

 

Not every business is the same so your onboarding packs shouldn't be either. Whether you're looking for something understated, the Smart and Simple Starter Gift Set is perfect, or the Bespoke OnBoarding Starter Pack is a fully customisable pack to reflect brand tone and culture. The Go High-End Starter Gift set is great for a professional and premium welcome. Or maybe you like to make a bold and different choice, then the Go Rouge Starter Gift Set is unique and high-end. 

 

We offer a variety of options designed to fit every need. 

 

Why It Matters in 2025

 

With more employees working remotely or in hybrid roles, a physical onboarding gift serves as a tangible reminder that they’re part of the team, even if they haven’t set foot in the office yet. Alternatively, having a pack ready and waiting on their desk sends a clear message of belonging from day one. This small but powerful gesture can boost engagement, build early loyalty, and enhance your employer brand.
