Sustainability and Authenticity in Corporate Gifting
Sustainability and authenticity in marketing are constantly rising to the top of priority lists in many B2B companies. Ou recent conversation with MK Getler, CMO at Loop & Tie, a leading sustainable gifting platform touched on the importance of authenticity and empathy in B2B marketing and how focusing on sustainability can bring real-world results to any business.
Authenticity when Speaking of Sustainability
MK emphasized the importance of being authentic when promoting sustainability. It’s crucial for businesses to avoid performative selling propositions and embrace sustainable practices as a company-wide commitment on an ongoing basis. True and lasting change requires dedication and persistence, not just drawing attention to certain topics during specific months.
Personalization in Gifting
It is high time to embrace a personalized approach to gifting, especially in the corporate world. Gifting should be about building authentic connections and recognizing the person on the receiving end, rather than a transaction. This shift fosters more meaningful relationships, improves conversion rates in the long run, and fosters a positive image for the business.
Balancing Profit and Impact
Profits can be used to uplift other supporting ecosystems around a business, such as investing in the environment or supporting small businesses and historically marginalized communities. In the long run, those communities leverage the platform to generate sales, thus fueling Loop & Tie’s capacity for growth and prosperity of their communities. Striking the right balance between profit and impact is essential to a company’s sustainability mission. Loop & Tie, for example, dedicates itself to sustainability and regeneration, with every effort geared towards meeting those goals.
Authentic Messaging
Lastly, Loop & Tie’s approach to messaging and communication is centered on authenticity. They aim to make their platform accessible to all, enabling great generosity in the process. By highlighting how businesses give back and genuinely care about their customers’ needs, they are more likely to engage and gain the trust of their audience.
Conclusion
In summary, in order for a gifting program to yield best results for the business and communities it serves, businesses should focus on being truly authentic in their sustainability practices and embrace a more personalized, meaningful approach to gifting. With persistence and continuous learning, it’s possible for businesses to strike a balance between driving profits and making a positive impact in the world.
