I will be attending the Quirk's Media New York show starting TOMORROW, 7/17-7/18, with my Highlight teammates: Carly Shira, Nathan Curtis, Calista Corley, and Karina Peréz Carlson. Engaging with our current and prospective customers, hearing their feedback, and finding new ways to meet their needs is always a #highlight. Stop by booth 428 to connect with our team and discover our latest innovations! Make sure to attend our session: “Unleashing private-label potential with agile, authentic product insights”. With headlines like: “Why private-label brands are having their moment”, “Private label keeps setting records in 2023”, “Double-digit growth of private label continues”, “How private-label merchandise is reshaping retail” it’s clear that private-label merchandise is reshaping retail. Thoughtfully-created private labels can enhance a retailer’s equity, credibility, and long-term loyalty. Highlight CRO, Calista Corley, and Mandy Daneman, Director of Owned Brand and Product Insights at Target, are going to dive into a case study on the impact of private label innovation on retailers' relationships with consumers. #QuirksNY #PrivateLabel #MarketResearch #TeamHighlight #CustomerEngagement

Spielwarenmesse 2024. Outcomes. Sharing our impressions of Spielwarenmesse 2024, we can’t but start with one very important fact: we launched a new brand in 2020, which wasn’t a favourable period of time, and our sales started in conditions of the overall market decline in most countries, however, we managed to make a real breakthrough in the global market!😎 The Trade Fair was very important for us not only as an opportunity to expand our sales territories, but also as a chance to evaluate results of our products launch in new markets in 2023. Currently, Kids Hits toys can be bought in 20 countries, our toys already talk in 7 languages and occupy prominent places on shelves in stores, demonstrating a steady growth in sales. We put lots of love in toys production and pay close attention to details - and the global market responds in kind, showing that we have been moving in the right direction. We have been building up the momentum! Our partners visited us in person to share results of the successful progress (very inspiring!), and we discussed the prospects of further development and made plans. The major outcomes of the exhibition appeared to be confirmation of cooperation with 8 new countries as well as the fact that our toys are going to be adapted to at least 5 new languages! Indeed, we want children's favourite toys use the same language as the little ones do, which will make learning at play even more fun and effective🤓. Despite the fact that the total number of visitors of Spielwarenmesse 2024 on the whole was smaller in comparison with the previous year, we were pleased to see our booth crowded with the quality (target) audience. We are grateful to all our visitors for all the kind words - which are so important for us! - not only about our toys, but also about our team. Thank you very much!❤️ Everyone was attracted by our stand, our team did their best to make it convenient, stylish and engaging. Thanks a lot to the team for all the efforts made and to all the visitors for the full appreciation of the work done! #KidsHits #spielwarenmesse #toyindustry #toys #edutoys #dolls #woodentoys #KidsHitsToys

What makes the promotional products industry so rewarding and different? Dan Pantano, President and CEO of alphabroder says it's all about the relationships, and we couldn't agree more! "The relationships in the promotional products industry are more collegial than in most places you’ll find. We have relationships with our supplier partners and our customers, of course, but we have relationships with our competitors as well. From that perspective, that’s what makes it so rewarding and refreshing and different." #ThinkBlink #PromotionalProducts #BrandedMerchandise
