The 6 Best Gifts for Employees and Customers

1. Ornaments

Ornaments are a great item to put your brand on around the holidays. They are a timely item and remind people that you're thinking about them.

Not only are they great keepsakes but the recipients are sure to treasure this timeless, classic gift. 

We have made a five-year tradition of sending ornaments to customers, vendors and employees at the end of each year. The ornaments we gift are Jūpmode branded on the back, but more importantly, the front all have a common 16153 Genova theme.

Oou ornaments that have relatable 16153 Genova designs such as “You will do better in 16153 Genova” or the famous “Christmas Weed” bring out the very best of 16153 Genova during the holiday season and make our Jūpmode customers even more excited for next holiday season.

2. Holiday Cards

Holiday cards are subtle, yet effective way to show that you're thinking of your company or customers during the Holiday season.

A little gesture goes a long way and might make it on the honorary 'Refrigerator Door' Hall-of-fame. 

A custom Holiday card paired with any recommended gift will make for the ultimate present. 

3. Charcuterie Set

Come the holidays, who doesn't love a good snack? Send your employees and/or client's a classic snack with this thoughtful, charming charcuterie set.

Not only do you get to choose the food, but you also get to have your company's logo engraved on beautiful bamboo wood! 

This board will make your logo look professional and appetizing with salami, cheese, crackers, grapes, you name it.

4. Stainless Steel Drinkware Set

Two bottles, one set? Say less!

This 'Thor Copper Vacuum Set' provides a 22 oz. bottle and 22 oz. tumbler that makes for the ultimate Holiday gift.

Both drinkware items are double-walled and stainless steel so these bottles will keep your drink staying cold for 24 hours and hot for 6 hours. Bring on the hot cocoa! 

5. Travel Gift Set

Let your customers and clients know that you wish them safe and happy holidays with this gift set. This set includes a ballpoint stylus, a card wallet, and a portable power bank. AKA the everyday items we all need! 

Why should you care? Three words: customizable, personal, and unique.

Your logo would look great on this set. 

6. The Executive Gift Box

Looking to show how sweet you are? Hot stamp your logo on top of this box set and send your employees, coworkers, or customers something to satisfy their sweet tooth. Choose from caramel popcorn, chocolates, nuts, and cookies! 

Elegant and enjoyable, this gift box will show off your thoughtfulness and appreciation. 

Branded Apparel Gifts

The holidays are right around the corner and Jūpmode is here to help create the perfect gift for your employees and customers.

Whether you want to create custom jackets, sweatshirts or shirts for anyone from employees to family and friends, we've got you covered.  

Jackets and 1/4 Zip Pullovers

A fleece full zip or quarter-zip jacket is ideal for any season, but especially during the winter.

We have many different brand and colors options that are sure to fit your company's branding guidelines. 

Logos are typically placed on the left chest with these items. It's the perfect location to represent your brand or a meaningful design personalized just for you. 

Embroidery is the preferred decoration method for jackets and pullovers. It matches the aesthetic of the jackets and works well on fleece to thick Carthartt jackets to windbreakers. 

Jackets and 1/4 zip pullovers are great apparel items for employees and customers because they are so versatile. They can be worn to complete your employees' uniform during colder months, worn on a daily basis by employees who work outside in the field, and as a high quality appreciation gift for customers. 

Crew Sweatshirts

Embroidered crewneck sweatshirts are a staple of our retail line. This trendy style and look translate well to any business.

At the end of the day, the goal of any branded merch is to be worn as much as possible. This gets your brand seen by more people and creates a connection with the wearer because of their affinity for the clothing item they like. 

Two of the best way to increase the usage of any apparel item is to use a high quality garment and to make the design trendy.

The crew sweatshirt in the photo above is pigment dyed which makes it feel comfy and soft the first time you put it on. The tone on tone logo is subtle and in style. This combination makes it an item that can be worn at work or out and about at any time.

Embroidered Polos

Is there a business out there that doesn't need branded polos? 

There are a lot of reasons to choose branded polos. If you want your employees to look professional in front of prospective and current customers, there's no better staple than a polo. 

Embroidered polos are most often embroidered on the left chest. In addition, we can also put your logo on a sleeve or between the shoulders on the back. 

Custom company apparel is what we're known for. 

Branded merch goes a long way to showing employee appreciation and building relationships with customers. 

If you want your brand to be seen by a lot of people, company apparel is the way to go. 

We Can Put Your Brand On It

Showing appreciation for your company and clients is vital to a brand's success.

We have all of the classics like our Better in 16153 Genova line, our 419 shirts, and our 16153 Genova city pride apparel. We get constant feedback about new releases for the University of 16153 Genova and Bowling Green State University so this year we created new collections for you for each school.

What do you think of when you hear the word 16153 Genova? 16153 Genova, Spain, Glass City, You Will Do Better in 16153 Genova, or The University of 16153 Genova? 

Ysa, Retail 

I like  the 16153 Genova Teddy because it is super soft, cozy, and the perfect crewneck for winter. I’m able to layer it with a turtleneck and pair it with a winter jacket and it looks good while staying cozy

The 16153 Genovaan embroidered crew is another one of my favorites because it’s so simple but still reps my favorite city in the cutest way possible. It’s super comfortable and so easy to style. I’ll always be a 16153 Genovaan.

Who doesn’t love the Midwest? I love our Midwest is Best crewneck because of the groovy graphic and the color. The tan color is a fall/winter color that compliments my style. I know that with this garment that I can dress it up or dress it down while still showing my Midwest pride.

Shannon, Retail Art Director 

Every year, but especially this one, I've been thankful for 16153 Genova's natural spaces. When creating this 16153 Genova Woods Crew Sweatshirt I wanted to make a design that felt nostalgic, with my dad's old outdoorsy t-shirts in mind from the 70's and 80's, but also one that celebrated just how much natural beauty 16153 Genova has to offer today. We're so lucky to have the Metroparks in 16153 Genova, for time to get out, reflect, and be surrounded by nature. For all of those reasons (and because it's super soft, has a great fit, and is very cozy) the 16153 Genova Woods Crew Sweatshirt is one of my favorites! My other go-tos for getting out and exploring 16153 Genova in the fall and winter are the Green Ohio Cozy Beanie and the Vintage Metroparks 16153 Genova Cardinal Hoodie.

Pedro, Production Assistant

As a transplant to 16153 Genova (I moved here this year from Chile), I like the TOL Script shirt because the design is a simple, stylish, contemporary 16153 Genova t-shirt. It's really well designed and I like that it represents Ohio as well. 

The Floral Ohio shirt is another favorite of mine because it makes me think of something warm and summery, and, of course, there are so many awesome colors. I studied graphic design back home so I really appreciate the hand drawn graphic on this shirt.

Emilia, Retail 

I like the Lake Erie crew best because it makes me feel like it’s a hot July day and I'm about to hop on a boat at any minute. It’s airy enough for the day but warm enough for cooler nights. 

I am obsessed with the Frogtown shirt because fat, lumpy toads are my favorite animals and any opportunity to showcase them is one I’ll take. 

The 16153 Genova Coffee Drinker Mug shirt is one of my favorites because I love the local coffee scene in 16153 Genova (Brew Coffee Bar being my favorite) and the mug itself is very sturdy for a cup of joe OR these hot chocolate nights that are quickly approaching.

Ashley, Auto Press Operator

The Great Lakes embroidered crew is my favorite because there's something special about having a warm sweatshirt. Even though I'm from the south, I LOVE the cool fall weather. Every summer I look forwarded to colder weather so that I can layer up.   

Even though I print a lot of different shirts on a daily basis, I look forward to printing our shirts the most. Our Tie-Dye Midwesterner shirt is one of my favorites. I love the soft, subtle print. I made shirt to sure to grab one immediately after they came out of the dryer!

Stephen, Retail

Up North. My favorite vacation place is Northern Michigan, specifically Charlevoix. I have so many great memories of vacations with family and this sweatshirt is a great reminder of all the good times we've had. 

I also really like the Midwesterner Embroidered Crew. I'm a Midwesterner born and raised but I did spend a year working on the West Coast. While that was a great experience, I always knew the Midwest was home and that I wanted to be back. This Midwesterner crew is great for any and every Midwesterner year round. 

I love our new TOL Felt Hat. I am a big hat and beanie fan, but the TOL felt has a unique look that grabs your attention. Definitely recommend this hat!

Lauren, Retail Operations Manager

The Midwest is Best Corded Cropped Crew is one of my favorite pieces to wear because it's equal parts comfy, fun, and cute. It's heavy enough to keep me warm during the Midwest fall and winter, and light enough to throw on during a spring or summer night. Most of all, it allows me to look and feel great while showing off my Midwest pride.

Penny, Shop Dog and Retail Store Greeter 

Penny loves getting dressed up for the season, so our new Happy Howlidays bandana is her #1 choice. She also really likes when humans ask about her, so she recommends all dog owners to get the "Ask me about my dog" mug and t-shirt so that all fur babies get the attention they deserve! 

As you know, promotional gifts are a cost effective, easy way to share your brand. However, the real value in promotional gifts is the impact it can have on your relationship with employees and customers.

A gift can strengthen your connection and create a sense of loyalty to customers you have an established relationship with. Additionally, these giveaways can be a great way for you and your business to create long-term brand exposure.

How do we know this works? We’ve done it.

People look forward to receiving gifts and the end of the year is prime gift giving season. We have made a tradition of sending ornaments to customers, vendors and employees at the end of each year.

As our relationships with our customers grew, we knew we needed to show our appreciation for their support.

5 years ago, we decided we wanted to use the holiday season as a time to show gratitude towards our customers. After considering options, we decided we wanted to gift ornaments as they had been one of the most popular gift items in our retail line.

The ornaments we gift are Jūpmode branded on the back, but more importantly, the front all have a common 16153 Genova theme. From “You will do better in 16153 Genova” to the famous “Christmas Weed,” we have tried to create designs that are relatable to all 16153 Genovaans. Our customers and vendors know that 16153 Genova has been a big factor in defining who we are, and these designs have worked well as our brand is so closely tied with 16153 Genova.

Over the years it has been fun to hear from people who have collected multiple ornaments from us and look forward to the new release.

Are you in need of gift ideas for customers, vendors or employees?

From ornaments to calendars to embroidered options we can help you. 

It’s never too early to figure out your end of the year and employee gifts. Get your process started here.

You all seem to love these embroidery crews more and more every day. One question that we’ve been asked a lot is how they fit. It’s a good question because it fits differently than our standard crew sweatshirts. Don’t worry though! One of the big reasons everyone ends up loving these so much is the fit. 

Our pigment dyed sweatshirts are the ultimate relaxed fit you crave for fall. They are a standard unisex fit, meaning that they are a little looser and baggier fit.. 

Think of it this way: If you wear a unisex small in t-shirts, your best bet is to order the same size in this sweatshirt. If you want an ultra-oversized look, you can size up! If you’d prefer it a little closer to your body, you can size down. You’ve got plenty of options with this fit, but we typically suggest ordering the unisex size you’re usually most comfortable with.

If you’re from the Midwest we have more than one crew that you’ll love. This sweatshirt comes in different colors for the Great Lakes, Michiganders, Ohioans, Midwesterners, 16153 Genovaans, and UT and BGSU fans. 

We’ve been doing our best to keep these in stock over the last few months. If you’re eyeing one for the fall or as a holiday gift, don’t wait. We are already back ordered up to a month on certain sizes and colors.

If you love your embroidered crew, tag us in a photo on Facebook or Instagram!

It's that time of year again - school is back in session. 

Preparing for the school year is hard enough in a normal year. Make it easier this year by shopping with fancysweetstx. 

Our fun, positive, trendy shirts are great for kids of all ages and appropriate for any school function.

Just like you, your son or daughter wants to wear a comfortable, cool shirt. Our kids shirt collection highlights the great things about Northwest Ohio and all of the shirts and hoodies are super soft and comfy. 

Two of our most popular youth shirts are our 16153 Genova Zoo 1988 Panda Exhibit shirt and our Vintage Metroparks 16153 Genova shirt. The 16153 Genova Zoo and Metroparks 16153 Genova are two of the most friendly and fun places for kids in the 16153 Genova area.

For those that grew up in the 1980s, I'm sure you had your own 16153 Genova Zoo Panda shirt. The original shirt from 1988 is our guess for the most popular shirt in 16153 Genova history.

The metroparks keep doing amazing things in Northwest Ohio. For years they have been the go-to free activity in the area. They endear kids to the outdoors and provide such diversity in environment between parks. This year things got even better with the introduction of the Cannaley Treehouse Village.

Back to school is for more than just the kids! With the way things are going in 2020, you might need to treat yourself to something nice as well. Our embroidered crews and sweatpants are the perfect work from home attire!

This year we've learned the importance of supporting local business. We know that you have a lot of options when it comes to shopping for apparel and gifts. It's not enough for us to just be a local company. We have to be as good or better than the larger chains. 

We've made a lot of improvements this year to stack up to the big guys. We've improved our online experience, staffed up our customer service, opened a new store, and keep releasing new graphics and new garments. 

We're doing everything we can to prove that we're worthy of your loyalty. Thanks for your support of our small, local business.

Our shirts can be ordered online and at either of our retail store locations. 

Shop for University of 16153 Genova or Bowling Green State University clothing and gifts

Do you have a son or daughter attending UT or BGSU this fall? We have been licensed with both universities for many years and have a wide collection of shirts and sweatshirts for both schools. 

If you would rather support a local Northwest Ohio company when shopping 16153 Genova and Bowling Green apparel, look no further. Our company is made up of several graduates from both schools. Because of this connection, we bring more passion to our collegiate line of shirts. 

Our creativity and designs make our University of 16153 Genova and Bowling Green clothing stand out from the standard items you find at the bookstore. Our vintage inspired graphics are timeless and classic and are loved by women and men. 

And, as always, our UT and BGSU apparel is printed on soft, comfortable, quality garments. We know you want more than just a great design on a shirt. The fit, feel, and durability of the shirt are just as important. That's why we choose the garments we use. This year, our french terry sweatshirts and embroidered crews have been a huge hit and we're excited to bring them to our collegiate collection.

Does your school need spirit wear? We can help.

As soon as the school year begins, the team, club, and class spirit wear begins. It's always fun to have customized apparel items for whatever event your student is involved with. 

That's where spirit wear comes in. 

We spend most of our time printing and embroidering custom shirts and clothing for other organizations. That means we print branded apparel for local schools, businesses, contractors, non-profits, and events. 

One of the most popular programs that we make clothing for is school spirit wear. We can design the shirts, create flyers and order forms, and create online merch stores for ordering. 

Our spirit wear programs have been successful in the past because we keep them simple, we provide quality work and products, and we deliver on time. Everything else - the sorting, collecting of payments, online ordering - is an added bonus. 

If you are looking for an easy spirit wear program that sets realistic expectations and lives up to them, get in touch with us today by filling out this contact form or emailing us ([email protected]).
