How Our Clients Experienced Christmas, the M&M Way
Jayva Global
Introduction
This testimonial from JAYVA perfectly illustrates how thoughtful merchandise selection can deliver maximum impact without breaking the bank.
As a professional services company without physical products, JAYVA needed creative ways to maintain brand visibility during client and vendor meetings. The results exceeded expectation, team members loved their functional items so much that new employees actively sought them out after seeing them on colleagues’ desks.
This organic demand demonstrates the true power of well-chosen branded merchandise.
The client’s emphasis on Chani’s personal service and ability to understand their needs, provide budget-friendly solutions, and eliminate the hassle of endless option-hunting showcases how the right partnership can transform a simple brief into ongoing brand advocacy that spreads naturally through the workplace.
What was the challenge you were trying to solve when you came to us?
We didn’t have a huge budget and I wanted to provide things that were both functional and enjoyable. Chani and her team were able to provide some great ideas to meet our needs.
Why did you choose branded merchandise as part of your solution?
For me it was the ease of having an idea and not having trawl options. Chani got our needs, provided solutions which met those in budget and made our people happy. So it’s the personal service and suitability of products which make the difference.
How did your team or clients react to the merchandise? Any standout moments or feedback?
Everybody loved them. Not in this specific bundle, but the Stanley style cups were a huge win, everybody LOVES them and say they keep their drinks cold for a whole day.
What changed after using it? Did it help with brand awareness, engagement, or something else?
Absolutely, in fact new team members who didn’t receive them at the time would see them on co-workers desks and ask for them!
If you had to sum up the impact in one sentence, what would it be?

Coretech
Introduction
Becky’s refreshingly candid feedback from Coretech proves that you don’t need a complex strategy to achieve great results with branded merchandise.
Starting with the simple challenge of “what to do for Christmas gifts” and admitting she had “no idea” where she was heading, Becky’s experience highlights how the right partner can turn uncertainty into success.
The branded water bottles became an instant hit with staff, encouraging healthier habits while providing practical everyday value. Her enthusiastic praise for the team’s creativity and support, from simple briefs to conference t-shirt design—shows how personal service and flexibility can transform even the most straightforward projects into memorable experiences that clients want to repeat.
What was the challenge you were trying to solve when you came to us?
What to do for Christmas gifts really (I had no idea where I was going or what I was trying to achieve!)

Joedan
Introduction
Joedan’s approach to branded merchandise perfectly demonstrates how genuine care for customers and staff can deliver unexpected business benefits.
Their festive advent calendar campaign wasn’t designed as a sales tool—it was simply a heartfelt “thank you” during the busy holiday season. Yet the results speak volumes: 25 days of prominent brand visibility, delighted reactions from families with young children, and a meaningful boost to local brand awareness.
What started as a seasonal gesture of appreciation became something so well-received that Joedan plans to make it an annual tradition. Andrew’s feedback showcases how the right merchandise, delivered with authentic thoughtfulness and perfect timing, can create lasting positive impressions that extend far beyond the initial gesture.
What was the challenge you were trying to solve when you came to us?
We wanted to provide not only customers but also staff with a small seasonal gesture in the lead up to Christmas, we knew this wouldn’t be used as a lead generation or brand building exercise as such but just a thank you to everyone for their custom and hard work over a busy time of the year.

How did your team or clients react to the merchandise? Any standout moments or feedback?
An advent calendar is something that will sit in a prominent position either in the office or at home for 25 days (unless you can’t resist opening all at once) so we thought that if we are going to give everyone an advent calendar this Christmas then why not have a message of seasons greetings from Joedan on the front.
What changed after using it? Did it help with brand awareness, engagement, or something else?
We never really intended this to be used as a sales tool, but of course there is always going to be an element of that whenever you hand out something that is company branded. I would say that it had an impact of increasing brand awareness within the area.

Frequently Asked Questions
Please get in touch if you have any questions that are not covered here. Our Christmas elves are just a click away!
Budgets vary, but a good starting point is to think per head. Say £5–£50. We’ll help you find gifts that make an impact without blowing the sleigh bells off your budget.
Yes! Branded gifts with your company logo are typically 100% tax-deductible. For team gifts, HMRC also allows up to £50 per person under the trivial benefit rule. (Always worth checking with your accountant.)
Absolutely. That’s our thing! Tell us a little about your brand, your goals, and your budget and we’ll build you a shortlist of magic-ready merch that’s made to impress.
Yes again! From FSC-certified edible treats to UK-made pamper kits, reusable mugs and recyclable packaging, we specialise in sustainable options that show your brand cares.
I would say the branding method and design, also low quantities of products.
Companies with websites loaded with product rely on you picking your own merchandise and deciding the best way it should be branded. You are doing all the work for them, all they need to do is process your order.
We are very transparent with our pricing, we will never quote for a product without including print, set up and carriage costs.
It’s our job to know what the latest trends in merchandise are, but we when we also understand who the gift is for, then we can give you a shortlist of ideas to pick from.
The earlier the better! We recommend finalising by early November. Some of our clients even start in September (yes, really!). Order early = more choice and less festive stress.
2025 is all about wellness, sustainability, and useful gifts with a personal touch. Think branded bath salts, Christmas socks, custom chocolate cards, and clever packaging that’s as joyful as the gift inside.
Yes! We can take care of fulfilment and postage direct to each recipient so whether they’re in the office or on a beach Zoom call, they’ll still get a moment of Christmas joy.
Of course. We don’t believe in cheap throwaways. We believe in smart gifting using clever branding, curated bundles and thoughtful extras that create more value with less.
Don’t order lots of small items, each one will be printed separately and there will be a set up charge. Order 1 gift that uses most of your budget, then add in some unbranded edible treats.
We don’t have websites loaded with product – but we can send you links to specialist ranges, once we’ve determined the best kind of merchandise for your company. We understand the limitations of the print areas on products, and how your logo would look within them. We are also experts on branding and can guide you to decide is screen, or digital print would be better than debossing or engraving.
Gifting isn’t just a festive tradition, it’s a chance to reinforce your brand values, appreciate your team, and create memorable moments. The right gift says “we see you” and that lasts well beyond December.
