In this situation, Johnnie Walker’s partnership with the artist elevated the luxurious value of the entire drinks gift box and introduced its customers to this designer.
3. Maximise Gift With Purchase (GWP)
Everybody loves freebies. It is a natural human trait. So, when people are offered promotional merchandise together with what they bought without extra cost, they naturally want to purchase the product.
Johnnie Walker, in this collaboration, offered a set of glasses that makes the product even more valuable and entices the consumer to buy.
4. Compel Quick Purchase
Whilst offering gifts with purchase is one way to compel people to buy your products, offering the gift for a limited time also has a way of compelling them to make hasty purchases.
Generally, people realize that the value of the product and the gift is top-notch, so they will be urged to buy in order not to miss out.
In Conclusion,
One reliable strategy for boosting your sales as a brand is by offering gifts with purchase, and by working with another brand in collaboration, you can reduce the cost of producing the promotional gift.
Furthermore, packaging these in a drinks gift box supplies a creative, ready-to-use feel to the promotion.
