What Makes IGC Different? Our retail perspective: IGC began as a blue jean retail store, and we’ve stuck close to our roots while transitioning to events. Our focus is on the customer, and what the best fit is for their event, guests, and budget. We also want out gifting suites to feel like shopping experiences for the guests. We are brand-agnostic: IGC works with hundreds of brands -- we don’t have 5 or 10 brands that we need you to pick from, instead we want to curate a unique blend of options for you to give you new and fresh choices. We are sourcing experts: We are constantly sourcing new gifts to offer our clients, and our focus is on partnering with brands with a great mission that are making high quality gifts and don’t yet have a big presence in the events space. Our gift marketplaces: Our most popular events are marketplace events where guests get to pick gifts from a whole marketplace selection with multiple brands and many options, which gives them the opportunity to make sure that they get a gift they’ll love and use, so feel free mix and match what you see in this proposal. Whereas in the past, planners would have to bring in up to 5 or 10 different vendors to create a gifting marketplace with a variety of gifts, IGC can do that all ourselves. Planners can work with one vendor and forget about dealing with vendor minimums. Our gift selections: One of the things that differentiates us from other gifting companies is that we work directly with each of these vendors and, aside from jeans, we don’t carry inventory in any of these items, so we aren’t offering old or outdated styles that are in a warehouse. This allows us to offer almost the entire catalogue from all of our partners and gives us much more flexibility to work with you on pricing and inventory decisions.

What will the bill include? What we charge: ● Product - The minimum items agreed-upon prior to the program. ● Management Fee - 2% of gross product costs if payment is received a month or more before the program, 3% if payment is received less than 1 month from the event date. This is a general administrative fee for the program. ● Staff Onsite - For a 1-day domestic event (up to 8 hours), the fee would be $650 per staff onsite to pay them for their work day, travel pay, and per diem. We are always happy to supplement with your staff to save you money, just let us know. What the client covers: ● Any shipping and customs charges to and from the event - we will always ask for a shipping account to use to keep things simple, but if you don’t have one available, we will use ours and bill you post-event. ● Any travel and accommodations for onsite staff are covered by the client. ○ This includes airfare, hotel costs, and Ubers/transfers to and from the staff's airport and to the event. To save you money, we always run as frugally as possible, so please let us know about airport shuttles if those are available. If you will be booking transportation for our staff, that must approved by us before booking. ● Any hotel storage and handling fees must be paid by client.
4 IGC Gift Experiences We always want to make sure our gift experience is a fit for your event, because every event is different, so we can work with you in a variety of ways to make sure your guests have the best experience for your event. 1) Traditional On-Site Gift Experience We ship all of the product to the event, send our staff, and set up a beautiful and engaging experience for your guests. Note: IGC provides basic decor (tablecloths, racks, dressing rooms, and limited crates for display), but large furniture like shelving and tables is provided by the client. We often need to setup the day before for these events, and will need to ensure that the product is secure in a locked room. 2) Samples on Site, Fulfillment After Especially good for international events in countries with difficult or expensive customs fees and taxes, we send our staff with samples in their luggage, they walk your guests through the options and help them find the best fit. We then package and ship the gifts to each of your guests individually. 3) Drop Ship A more flexible option, we ship all of the product to you and you gift when and where you want! Great for room drops. More information on the next page. 4) Virtual Program with Microsite We are happy to put together a beautiful microsite where guests can see the gift options and go through our check-out system find their perfect gift and give us their shipping address so we can efficiently manage and ship all of the gift to your guests.
