Creative, innovative and out-of-the-box
With all of the creative designers and clients we work with, innovative
pieces and programs are coming through GLS on a regular basis. The
President’s Choice award was created to recognize the people
and companies who design, create or develop these unique projects.
The winners you see here received the President’s Choice award
because they were extraordinarily creative, innovative or just plain
out-of-the-box thinking.
 Congratulations to Best Buy for winning the most recent President’s Choice Award for “You Shine,” an eye-catching holiday mailer sent to thank corporate clients for their Gift Card business.
Collaborating with GLS dimensional mail designer Dick Thompson, Best Buy created a festive and multi-layered piece. The outer layer was an attractive blue and green striped mailing jacket. It opened to reveal a silver foil sleeve peeking through a cutout window shaped like a gift box. The silver sleeve, imprinted with the message “You Shine,” contained a thank-you card, coupons, and a whimsical little gift box pop-up. The piece was produced with specialized processes including foil-stamping and intricate hand assembly.
According to Best Buy’s manager of Gift Card sales and operations, the mailing made a big impression on customers. The corporate campus in Richfield, MN has received numerous e-mails and phone calls from customers wishing to thank Best Buy for making them feel valued.
“This is a showpiece,” said Gary Garner, GLS Companies CEO. “Best Buy sent a thoughtful message in a stylish, fun package that truly did shine with holiday spirit.”
