Let’s face it, brainstorming the perfect product ideas for your clients is hard. What’s even harder? Ensuring that those products have staying power in the recipient’s home, office, and lifestyle, as the parameters of each, continue to evolve. 

It’s no secret that end clients are becoming more and more selective about the products that enter and remain in their spaces, and so today on the commonsku blog, we’re diving into 5 trends for 2021 that will stand the test of time, and inspire your next client presentation. 


Sustainable Items 

Sustainability is not a passing trend or fad, but rather a movement that is here to stay. More than ever clients are conscious of where their items are sourced from, and the carbon footprint that accompanies it. 

But just because a product is recycled, biodegradable, or sustainable doesn’t mean that it has to be boring. A number of suppliers have begun offering new and exciting sustainable lines for any of your client’s needs and match your client’s values.

Active Lifestyle Items 

With work commutes and traveling at an all-time minimum, the ability to live a healthy active lifestyle has increased for many. From home workouts to home cooking, the interest in maintaining personal health has skyrocketed, as has an interest in the products that support it. 

Whether it’s workout apparel, equipment, or simply items that make it easy to get outside, your clients are sure to love these product ideas that seamlessly fit into their new routines.

Self-Care and Relaxation

 

After this past year, we can all agree that we could incorporate more self-care and relaxation into our lives. Items under this product category are sure to be enjoyed and kept by your customers. 

Pay special attention to the spa and wellness items that have begun to flood the market. More than ever candles, tea, essential oils, and bath products are sparking interest with buyers (bonus points if your spa products have an environmentally friendly story!). 

In addition to these products, cozy at-home essentials have skyrocketed in popularity even as we move into the summer months. Terry robes, soft blankets, and slippers are all options to present to your clients to create a relaxing collection or kit this season.

Food Gifts 

If you’re looking for a product idea that is sure to be used, look no further than craft food and snack gifts and experiences. On top of a slew of people adopting cooking as their new hobby during the past year, your customers will also find innate comfort in receiving a food gift. 

While food gifts may not be a new trend, getting creative with them is! Add a personalized recipe card to a food box, a cocktail shaker or bar set to a cocktail kit, or add a charcuterie board to a meat and cheese gift to create a weekend night at home experience.

Tech Accessories 

If you weren’t already familiar with your computer equipment and your workplace’s tech stack, I guarantee you’re acutely aware of it now. 

As many begin to work in hybrid and modern office situations, a pair of Bluetooth headphones, a Bluetooth speaker, or a device sanitizer will have staying power with your clients.
