October Is the Time to Choose, Personalise, Deliver

Branded Christmas gifting works best when it is useful, thoughtful and right for the recipient.

October is the ideal time to order client and staff gifts. Personalisation, artwork approval, branding and fulfilment all take time, and ordering now helps you avoid the December rush.

At Print RFT, we combine quality, reliability and understanding with direct oversight from Paul Rivers. We help you choose the right products, check the design and manage the process. Right First Time.

Gifts People Use: Gifts People Keep

The most effective promotional products are the ones people keep using.

Choose products that are:

  • Useful at work, at home or while travelling
  • Well made for your audience
  • Branded with care, not over-designed
  • Easy to personalise
  • Practical enough to stay visible into the New Year

Our Product Finder creates the digital to physical bridge between browsing online and receiving a finished product that represents your brand properly.

Everyday Favourites: Practical Brand Awareness

Mugs, Pens, Notebooks, Calendars

Practical gifts keep your brand visible long after Christmas.

  • Mugs work well for client gifts, office gifting and team packs.
  • Pens and notebooks create useful desk sets.
  • Calendars and diaries suit thank-you gifts, desk packs and welcome packs.
  • Keep branding clear, attractive and easy to use.

These products are especially suitable for offices, consultants, schools and professional services.

Travel, Outdoors, On the Move

Umbrellas, Tote Bags, Key Rings, Lanyards

Useful gifts travel well and keep your brand on show.

  • Umbrellas are practical for clients, staff and business partners, with golf umbrellas offering larger branding areas.
  • Tote bags suit shopping, commuting, events and gift packs.
  • Key rings, water bottles, badges and other items can be explored through our full product range.
  • Lanyards work well for events, visitor access, team identification and exhibitions.

If you are unsure what fits your audience, ask us. Our advice is free.

Christmas Cards, Greetings Cards, The Personal Touch

A gift feels more considered with a genuine message.

Use greeting cards to thank clients, suppliers and staff. A printed card works well with:

  • A branded mug
  • A notebook and pen
  • A calendar
  • A tote bag
  • A personalised team gift

The card adds the Personal Touch and turns a branded item into a warmer expression of appreciation.

Team Gifts, Workwear That Builds Belonging

Personalised Christmas jumpers, hoodies and fleeces can make excellent team gifts.

Browse hoodies and fleeces, then talk through the right garment, colour, branding method and sizing.

Branded workwear and team clothing are a great way to:

  • Build and maintain brand awareness
  • Create a professional and consistent brand image
  • Help staff and subcontractors feel part of the team
  • Recognise your people
  • Give your team something useful beyond the festive season

This is a high-touch service with expert oversight and bespoke guidance to help ensure branding precision and quality.

For tailored workwear and promotional orders, quotes are bespoke and approved by Paul. Payment is required upfront once the design and order are agreed.

Packaging: The Gift Starts Before the Gift

The presentation matters.

Branded paper bags, promotional boxes, packaging and stickers can make a simple gift feel more complete.

Use packaging to:

  • Create a consistent unboxing experience
  • Protect and present multiple products together
  • Add a seasonal message
  • Carry your brand into the recipient’s home or workplace

Packaging can also connect your Christmas gifting to your wider printed materials, including the four key sale lines: business cards, stickers, posters and banners.

Plan in October, Avoid the December Rush

Start your Christmas gifting project by confirming:

  • Who will receive the gifts
  • Approximate quantity
  • Budget and product type
  • Any names or personalisation
  • Artwork, logo and brand colours
  • Required delivery date
  • Whether gifts need packing or sending separately

Some products are simple. Others need more detailed artwork, personalisation or coordination. The earlier you begin, the more time we have to help you compare options and create a polished result.

Every order includes a Free Design Check. Our free print and workwear consultancy is available 24/7.

Rachel, our senior print advisor and receptionist, can help with enquiries and arrangements. Paige, our AI team member, is available through the website live chat for instant answers and real-time support with print, workwear and promotional product questions.
