Remote-hire welcome kits, from idea to doorstep

When your next engineer starts in Denver and your designer starts in Lisbon, the welcome kit is the first physical thing your company puts in their hands. Getting one made usually means chasing four vendors: a box printer, a swag supplier, a screen printer for apparel, and a mailing house. Teal builds welcome kits for startups under one roof instead, so you brief a single team and approve one proof.

What goes in a startup welcome kit

A strong kit pairs a branded mailer or rigid box with a few things a new teammate will actually use: a custom hoodie or tee, a notebook, stickers, and a short welcome card. You can order from a 50-unit minimum, so a five-person seed team is not forced to buy thousands of pieces up front. Volume pricing begins from $0.44 per unit as your quantities grow. Browse box styles and add-ons on the Teal shop to picture your kit before you commit.

How kitting and fulfillment work

Once your pieces are printed and produced, they arrive at our US fulfillment center in West Chicago, Illinois. We store your inventory, then pick, pack, and ship each kit to individual recipients on your schedule. Onboarding one hire in Austin today and another in Seattle next week is two clicks, not a warehouse run, and there is no per-shipment minimum once your stock is on hand.

Design, proofs, and timing

You do not need an in-house designer. Dieline design, artwork setup, and two revision rounds are free, and you approve a free digital proof before anything prints. Standard production runs from about 7 business days after proof approval, with complex or high-volume runs taking longer, plus 2 to 5 business days for delivery. Free US shipping is included on custom orders.

Try the materials first

Want to feel the board and print quality before you buy? Order a free sample kit and pay only $19.99 shipping, credited toward your first order. When you are ready to price a run, send your logo and headcount and request a quote. We will help you pick the box, the apparel, and the kit contents that fit your budget and your team size.

Production Checklist

How to Plan Startup Welcome Kits for Remote Hires

Use this page to brief Teal before quoting. The strongest custom startup welcome kits for remote hires requests include structure, size, artwork stage, material target, quantity, ship-to country, and any compliance or retail display needs.

1. Confirm structure and fit

Share the packed product size, preferred box style, insert needs, and whether the package ships directly or sits on a retail shelf. If you are unsure, Teal can suggest a mailer, folding carton, sleeve, rigid setup box, tray, or insert direction.

2. Choose board and finish

Match the material to weight, shipping risk, shelf life, and brand feel. Common choices include kraft, SBS, corrugated, rigid board, recycled paperboard, matte lamination, gloss lamination, foil, embossing, debossing, and spot UV.

3. Prepare artwork and proofing

Upload logos, dielines, color references, barcodes, warnings, ingredient panels, or compliance copy before proofing. Teal checks print placement, bleed, safe zones, panel orientation, and finishing details before production starts.

4. Lock quantity and timeline

Quote accuracy improves when you include target quantity, launch date, shipping destination, and rush requirements. Standard production can begin after proof approval, and sample kits help compare materials before a larger custom order.

For faster pricing, include photos of your current packaging, competitor references, retail display rules, shipping carton requirements, and any sustainability goals. Teal can quote the closest production-ready option first, then refine dielines, inserts, coatings, print coverage, and carton strength after your team reviews the proof.
