Our team worked with them in researching a gift that would last, then we created unique packaging and even completed the employee gift with a hand-written envelope. Here’s what Austi Hawk, Marketing Director at Keystone Heart,had to say: “We wanted to give something special to our team members around the world and DMC made it super easy! They helped research our “The North Face” jackets that turned out amazing. The message and design of the thank you card that went with them was heartfelt and professional -not to mention personalized with each team member’s name on it!I think the most impressive thing about this gifting project was how it was packaged: it had handwritten envelopes, the card and jackets were placed in bags to maintain their shape, which was tied with a beautiful red ribbon, and then mailed
