The Challenge

The Sill's products were already a favourite corporate gift, but Shopify checkout takes one shipping address per order, leaving bulk gifting to spreadsheets, email threads and manual coordination.

The Solution

A dedicated corporate gifting storefront on Giftnote Multi-Gift, with CSV recipient upload, a choice of group or per-recipient messaging, scheduled sending and several gift carts in one programme.

NEW YORK: The Sill, the New York brand that turned houseplants into a design category, has opened a dedicated corporate gifting storefront.

The programme runs on Giftnote, the gifting platform behind more than a thousand Shopify brands.

The brand

The shop leads with a line that sums up the category advantage neatly: "Corporate Gifting Made Simple: give new employees a warm welcome, express appreciation to valued clients, or simply recognize your team's hard work, with a gift that keeps on growing."

What is in the corporate catalogue

The catalogue is organised the way a buyer thinks: Houseplants, Orchids, Outdoor, Packs, Holiday and a Gift Card. Prices start lower than most people expect from the brand: the Olive Tree from $39, the Money Tree Plant from $39, the ZZ Plant from $39 and the Bird of Paradise from $69, which makes a whole-team send affordable rather than a boardroom-only gesture.

Gifts in the shop right now include:

Olive Tree: from $39
Bird of Paradise: from $69
Money Tree Plant: from $39
ZZ Plant: from $39
Snake Plant Zeylanica: from $59
Monstera Deliciosa: from $69
Snake Plant Laurentii: from $59
Parlor Palm: from $59

The gift that's still there in March

Almost every corporate gift is consumed and forgotten inside a fortnight. A plant sits on a desk for years. For employee gifting in particular that changes the maths completely: one order in November, and a daily reminder that outlasts every hamper on the floor.

How the gifting works

The Sill runs the programme on its own domain at gifting.thesill.com, running on Giftnote Multi-Gift.

After the gifts are chosen, the buyer lands on Recipients & Gift Messages. Recipients go in one at a time or arrive by CSV upload. Then come two questions most gifting tools never ask: what type of message? (one message for the whole list, a different note per recipient, or none at all) and

when to send?, which separates the moment the message lands from the moment the order was paid for.

The Add another cart? step is the one people miss. One programme can run several gift bundles at once, so the senior client list and the whole-team send needn't be two exercises.

Adding recipients and choosing the message type

What the programme does

One order to as many recipients as the list holds
Recipients added individually or uploaded by CSV
A group message, a different note per recipient, or none at all
A send date chosen by the buyer, not dictated by the order date
Several gift carts running inside one programme

What it unlocks for the brand

Corporate gifting is one of very few channels where a single order introduces a brand to hundreds of people at once, and every one of them opens it on purpose.

What lands is a branded message with the recipient's name on it. Through the Klaviyo integration, that person becomes a contact the brand can talk to.

Giftnote POV

A corporate gift is the only marketing you send that someone opens on purpose. The brands doing it properly treat the recipient as a customer they have just acquired, because that's exactly what they are.

Frequently asked questions

Does The Sill do corporate gifting?

Yes. The Sill takes corporate and bulk gift orders through its corporate gift shop, sending to as many recipients as the list holds from a single order.

Can you send The Sill gifts to many addresses in one order?

Yes. Every recipient gets their own shipment and their own message, and no address ships without being validated first.

Can you write a different gift message for each recipient?

Yes. Send one group message to the whole list, write a different note for every recipient, or send with no message at all.

Can you choose when the gift message is sent?

Yes. The send date is the buyer's choice, so the message can land on the occasion rather than the day the card was charged.

How does a Shopify brand send one order to many addresses?

Shopify wasn't built for one order going to two hundred doors. That takes an app that splits the order, validates each address and carries a message per recipient. The Sill does this with Giftnote Multi-Gift.

What software powers The Sill's corporate gifting?

Giftnote Multi-Gift handles it: the storefront, bulk recipient upload, individual messages and send scheduling.
