WINDER, GA — Ucanpack, a Georgia-based manufacturer and distributor of packaging and shipping supplies, has published a guide describing how e-commerce sellers can use custom-printed tags ahead of the holiday gifting season. The guide covers three uses: gift messaging, thank-you notes, and seasonal promotions included with online orders. It is intended for small and mid-sized online retailers preparing fulfillment workflows for the busiest shipping months of the year.

Holiday periods place heavy demand on online retailers, and parcel presentation is one way sellers differentiate their orders. The National Retail Federation, a US retail trade association, has reported in its annual holiday forecasts that consumers continue to do a large share of seasonal shopping online. As order volumes rise, sellers often look for low-effort ways to add a personal element to each shipment without slowing packing operations.

The guide explains that a printed tag is a small card or hang tag that can be attached to a product, tucked inside a mailer box, or fastened to a gift. For gift messaging, sellers can print a short greeting or a space for a handwritten note, so recipients receive a message alongside the item. For thank-you notes, a tag can carry a brief acknowledgment of the purchase, the seller’s name, and contact details for customer questions.

The third use covered is seasonal promotions. According to the guide, a tag can announce a holiday collection, a returning-customer offer, or a reminder of the shipping cutoff dates for the final weeks of the season. Ucanpack notes that tags can be printed in different designs for different order types, allowing a seller to match a tag to a gift order, a repeat customer, or a limited seasonal product line.

The guide also addresses planning. It recommends that sellers finalize artwork, wording, and quantities well before peak order periods, since custom items require an artwork approval step before production begins. Ucanpack states that custom printed products ship about three days after artwork approval. “Sellers tend to think about tags late in the season, when production schedules are already tight,” said Press Room for Ucanpack. “Settling on the message, the size, and the quantity early makes it easier to keep orders moving.”
