Fees


Serenity Gift Bags is a service to our community bringing your message to real customers directly. We are a fraction of the cost of majority of the swag bag choices (some at $10,000) who promise celebrity endorsements that ultimately do not pay off. 


Our conscientious team stores, handles, packs, delivers, and distributes each bag. Your small fee  covers all the time, costs, and labor intensive process to produce a high quality product.  For about a dollar a person, you can get your product/service in front of your next target client.

Though our fees generally vary, we normally charge $695 for every 500 bags we put together and $995 for every 1000 bag distribution.

Boost Awareness and Brand Loyalty


Serenity Gift Bags provides direct marketing and online presence. Doing this type of special guerrilla marketing will pay off by generating new customers and brand loyalty. Your message will not get lost in the world wide web.  You are giving a personalized and relevant message to this "LOHAS" conscious community that is aligned to their values. 

Broadcasting on on social media sites or aiming emails randomly is losing appeal. People are tuning out the advertising  they see online. However, they will try new things when it is physically presented to them.

Samples are a powerful way to market your product.

We are bringing our version of an "expo" to our community - except we are putting it all in a bag.

Coupons/Special Offers


You may not have any trial sized products or perhaps it is too costly to sample.  Services obviously can not be sampled in a bag. 


Gift certificates, gift cards, free consultations, or special offers will entice a new client. Postcards and brochures can be an effective way to convey your marketing message. Coupons are still very effective according to Coupon Trends Report 2014. Think Groupon or Living Social. 


To encourage our recipients to visit our website, we insert a special message within the bag and let them know about your offers.
