Five giveaways that work at a launch

A launch guest list is unusual: press, partners, distributors, a few customers, and your own team watching how it lands. The giveaway has one job, to make the launch easy to remember a week later. Five kinds of giveaway do that well:

1. The product itself, or a sample of it. If guests can hold, taste or use what you launched, nothing else comes close. Food, skincare, apparel and app launches (a code inside a card) all suit this.
2. A printed keepsake from a merchandise printer. A notebook, tote or tumbler with the launch name. Useful when the logo needs to be seen in public afterwards.
3. A press kit in a good box. For journalists and creators: the facts sheet, images on a drive, a sample, and one object worth photographing.
4. A small handmade piece in the launch colour. For guests who will never use your product directly, such as a lender, a landlord, a mall partner or a dealer's family. This is where a candle from Raajkosh fits: a hand-poured soy wax piece with your logo on the tag, the note card or a wax seal.
5. A donation card or a plant. For brands whose launch message is about giving back.

Many launches combine two: a sample for everyone, and a keepsake for the people who matter most.

Matching the giveaway to what you are launching

The best launch giveaway rhymes with the product, so it reads as part of the story rather than a party favour.

• A colour launch (a new pack, a new store design): pick a piece in the same colour. Our Spiral Pillar Candles come in ivory, pink, blue, yellow and navy, Rs 179 each at shop price, so a navy launch gets navy pillars.
• A home, interiors or real estate launch (a showroom, a housing project, a furniture line): a piece that sits on a shelf. Seashell Candles, a pair of conch-shell vessels at Rs 899, or Marble Seashell Candles at Rs 999, look like part of a styled room.
• A festive launch (a Diwali collection, a jewellery line before the wedding season): Diya Candles, six terracotta-red wax diyas for Rs 449, or Matki Candles, four painted pots for Rs 599.
• A playful consumer launch (a cafe, a kids' brand, a lifestyle app): Heart Bubble Candle, Rs 249 in white or light blue, or Blossom Candle, Rs 299.

All of these are shop prices per piece. Your quote confirms the final price per gift with branding and delivery.

Launch giveaways side by side

Getting giveaways to the launch venue

Launches happen in hotels, malls, showrooms and rented halls, often with a setup window of a few hours. Plan the giveaway around that window, not around the guest list:

• Ask the venue who receives parcels and on which days. Many hotels hold event deliveries at the front desk or the banquet office if you name the event.
• Send to the venue, not the agency office, unless the agency is packing goody bags. We deliver to one address or many, so the venue can be the single address on the order.
• Count a few spares for walk-ins and the press who bring a colleague.
• Keep candles unlit indoors if the venue bans open flames. They are still decor, and guests light them at home.

We do not promise a delivery date. The timeline for your quantity and branding is set out in your quote before you pay, so tell us the launch date first.

Our terms for a launch order

The same terms as every Raajkosh corporate order, from our corporate gifting terms page:

• From 10 gifts, no minimum order value. A small partner launch with 15 guests is fine.
• Logo on the gift tag, the note card or a wax seal. We do not print on the candle itself.
• GST invoice with your company's billing name, address and GSTIN.
• Delivery across India, to the venue or to every guest's address afterwards.
• Prepaid, as set out in the quote. Branded gifts are not returnable unless damaged, defective or wrong; report damage within 24 hours of delivery.

When a candle is the wrong launch giveaway

Choose something else if your launch must put the product itself in guests' hands, if the logo has to be visible in public afterwards (a printed tote does that, a tag does not), if the venue needs everything on a fixed date that no one has confirmed in writing, or if you need hundreds of identical tech accessories. We make candles only, so for gadgets, apparel or food boxes go to a merchandise printer, a gifting portal or a hamper company.
