The Future of Swag is Print-On-Demand

Let’s be real – swag has gotten a bad name over the years. We’ve all experienced it – receiving those cheap logo freebies that immediately get shoved in a drawer to be forgotten (or, even worse, tossed straight into the trash).

But listen up because high-quality company swag is incredibly powerful. It builds a strong team spirit, boosts employees’ morale, and acts like a walking billboard for your brand. The big question is, how can we ditch the “landfill fodder” stigma and create swag that people are stoked to wear and use?

The answer lies with SwagMagic’s game-changing Print On Demand platform.

What is Print-On-Demand Swag Production?

If you’re scratching your head wondering what that even means, allow me to break it down. Print On Demand Swag (POD Swag for short) throws the old “one-size-fits-all” wasteful approach out the window. Instead of ordering some massive generic swag orders, Print-on-demand swag lets you produce high-quality, fully customized items one at a time as they’re purchased.

Think about it—no more guessing on sizes, crossing your fingers that your team will like the stuff, and being stuck with piles of extras. With POD, every single item—whether it’s a T-shirt, water bottle, notebook, or something else—gets made to order with a purpose. That means zero runoff and maximum impact.

Enter the revolution of Print-on-Demand Swag: Benefits

Reduce Waste & Become a Sustainability Champion

One of the biggest perks of POD is its eco-friendly nature. No more bulk orders and piles of leftover inventory destined for the landfill. With on-demand production, every product gets created with a specific purpose, minimizing waste and maximizing impact. This eco-conscious approach benefits the environment and resonates with today’s socially responsible consumers and employees.

Empower Your Team (and Ditch the Size Drama)

Raise your hand if you’ve ever had to chase down team members for their sizes or agonize over finding the perfect product everyone will love. With POD, those nightmares are a thing of the past.

Our SwagMagic platform offers a curated selection of top brands like Nike, Adidas, The North Face, Carhartt, Brooks Brothers, Champion, and more.  Recipients can choose the items they’ll wear and use, from apparel and drinkware to tech accessories and office supplies. Imagine the difference between a logo slapped on a generic t-shirt and a team sporting stylish North Face hoodies with your company’s logo – the brand association and employee pride are undeniable.

Order Freedom

What do you do when you need branded t-shirts for 40 people, but you’re being hit with a 50-unit minimum order?

With SwagMagic’s POD, say goodbye to the frustration of minimum order quantities. You can order the exact number of items you need with any design type you’d like, whether for a small onboarding class or a large conference giveaway. No more scrambling to find that one product with the perfect minimum order size – you’re in complete control. Plus, this flexibility allows you to tailor your swag strategy to specific campaigns or events.

We offer a huge global catalog with thousands of products to fit your needs – from sleek tech accessories and stylish tote bags to branded notebooks and more.
