Small Gestures, Big Impact: Boost Workplace Morale with Desk Drops

When it comes to corporate gifting, bigger isn’t always better. In fact, sometimes, the simplest gestures have the most significant impact. That’s where corporate desk drops come in. These small gifts are designed to efficiently reach staff members, deliver a meaningful message, and create a moment of appreciation. And all of this without the complexities and costs of a large-scale gift.

Business Gifting Made Easy

At Hamper World, we are experienced in making business gifting easy and impactful. While full-sized hampers are perfect for certain special occasions, desk drops offer a unique way to engage with your whole team more regularly. These bite-sized gifts are simple, effective, and can be customised to fit your brand.

Let’s explore why desk drops are becoming increasingly popular in the corporate world and how your company can make the most of them.

What Are Corporate Desk Drops?

Corporate desk drops are token gifts delivered directly to employees’ desks, typically with a message or announcement attached. These gifts can range from individually wrapped chocolates to creative packaging filled with treats like nuts, biltong, or sweets.

The idea behind desk drops is to make gifting effortless yet memorable. They’re not as complicated as full hampers, but they still do demonstrate thoughtfulness and care on the part of the business.

Some popular desk drop ideas include:

  • Chocolates with a branded sticker: Perfect for announcing an upcoming event or inviting staff to a meeting or event, these are simple to distribute and always well-received—you can’t help but smile when you find a chocolate pick-me-up on your workstation.
  • Glass jars filled with chocolates or sweets: These small, reusable jars offer a sweet treat and serve as a lasting desk accessory, reminding staff of the thoughtful gesture. We can brand these with a sticker featuring your company’s logo or add a tag around the jar.
  • Plastic cone bags filled with nuts and biltong: These nifty bags can be branded with a custom sticker and filled with delicious savoury snacks, perfect for promoting health consciousness amongst your team.
  • Mini Care Packages: Featuring tea or pamper productsto encourage staff to de-stress and promote a sense of workplace wellness.
  • Branded Mug: Pair a custom company mug with 1-2 sachets of coffee and a small packet of biscuits or biscotti for a comforting desk-side treat.
  • Small Pot Plant: A low-maintenance succulent is a great way to add a touch of greenery to the workspace
  • Treat Jar or Box: Filling a jar or box with five small treats, one for each workday is a fun way to keep employees looking forward to a daily reward.
  • Refillable Desk Drops For Clients: Send a jar of sweets to clients with a message to contact you when the jar is empty. This provides the perfect opportunity to visit your clients and is a unique way to build business relationships.

3. It’s the Thought That Counts

Desk drops offer a more practical solution when you want to reach a larger group of people than for instance gift hampers. Instead of relying on emails for announcements or invites, desk drops provide a personal touch that shows employees you’ve gone the extra mile to engage with them. Whether it’s an event invite or a simple token of appreciation, these small gifts can have a big impact.

It’s the thought behind these gestures that really counts. Even something as simple as a chocolate surprise or a jar of sweets can make a meaningful difference. It will assist in boosting employee morale and making your team feel valued and appreciated.

4. Budget-Friendly

Corporate desk drops are a cost-effective way to keep up regular engagement with your staff without breaking the bank. They allow companies to give more frequently, without the larger investment of high-end gifts.

Because they are simple to create and distribute, you can give them regularly without the hassle or cost of larger, more complex gifts.

  • Promoting a new product
  • Sharing a seasonal greeting
