5 Steps To Creating Your Branded Influencer Box

PR/Influencer boxes are a great way of creating buzz by having influential users and loyal brand advocates generate more exposure for your brand and products. The process of creating influencer boxes internally can be time-consuming for businesses and their teams. Through our in-house manufacturing services, reliable vendors and processes, we’re able to design products efficiently to create a seamless and stress-free experience for our clients. 

Step 1: Decide on Your Budget

Before you start putting everything together, decide on a budget and a general list of items that you’d like our team to source and the number of boxes you’d like to create. The cost per unit reduces if you order at higher quantities e.g 36+.

We recommend bundling the items for retail, giveaways, etc so that you have extra products to spare. Our team works alongside you to share the most cost-efficient production methods that will work for each product e.g DTF vs Screenprinting. 

Step 2: Choose Your Products

Once you have a budget in mind, it's time to choose the products to include in your influencer box and the logo for each product. You should consider what type of products will best represent your brand and what items your influencers are likely to be interested in and keep for life. Our team presents a deck and products to choose from at various quantity breaks to make it an easier selection process.

Step 3: Source Products & Begin Production

Once we have a list of the products you want to include, it's time to source the products and begin production. Production for apparel items takes 2-3 weeks weeks and custom promotional production ranges from 2-6 weeks depending on the production method and quantity ordered. We always recommend planning for a delivery date of 1-2 weeks after project completion for good measure, although rush service is an option and can be created with products with a quicker turnaround time.

Step 4: Package Your Products

Once we have sourced all of your products, it's time to package them up. Clients have an option of creating custom packaging, cards, tissue paper, stickers etc to hone in on the brand experience. Packaging is ordered during the production process to ensure accurate timelines. After the products arrive, the first sample box is then created and approved by the client, after approval all products are forwarded and box assembly is mirrored by the fulfillment team.

Step 5: Ship the Boxes

After receiving the shipping information and designated addresses, our fulfillment team assembles the boxes and ships the products within 2 business days. Depending on the carrier of choice, the influencer boxes can be received locally (Atlanta) within 1-2 business days or nationally in 4-7 days. Our clients will receive tracking information to ensure each box was received by the recipient and arrived safely. We also recommend adding on insurance to ensure that the carrier is accountable if the shipment is missing from their end.
