Happy Wrappin’

So by today, about 500 of our closest friends should have received their Orange Element holiday gift in the mail. If you haven’t, don’t worry, we still have some to hand deliver! And if you’re out of state, you should get yours either today or tomorrow–Wednesday by the latest.

This year’s gift was a useful one — sheets of wrapping paper, custom designed by each member of the Orange Element team. But this wasn’t just any ordinary wrapping paper. This was 100% recycled wrapping paper. Actually, the entire mailing–envelope, label and all–was recycled. And the paper itself was FSC certified. We really wanted to do something that was cool, but we also had a burning desire to do something that was environmentally responsible. That’s the kind of company we are!

As an added bonus, Orange Element was featured on the front cover of the Baltimore Business Journal, including a picture. The story we were in was about the weak economy and how lots of businesses are cutting back this holiday season. It made it sound a bit like we were skimping, but we really weren’t. Producing 7,000 sheets of wrapping paper is not cheap! But that’s the nature of PR, I guess…
