When the calendar hits Q4, most people see the end of the year. But MOQ1 users know there’s one more window of opportunity waiting, The 13th Month.
It’s the bonus stretch where corporate gifting, employee appreciation, school programs, and team celebrations create a surge in demand for fast, high-quality branded products. And the distributors who are prepared with the right holiday-ready items are the ones who win that extra month of revenue.
Below are the must-have products from the MOQ1 catalog that make it easy to launch holiday shops, fulfill gifting programs, and help your clients look good when it matters most.
Cozy Layers Everyone Actually Wears
Hoodies, quarter-zips, fleece pullovers, and premium sweatshirts are seasonal staples for a reason: they’re comfortable, giftable, and universally loved. Whether it’s an employee holiday party, a booster club shop, or a corporate gifting store, warm apparel is always a top seller.
With 1–2 day production and no inventory commitment, MOQ1 lets you offer winter-ready apparel without forecasting or stock risk.
Premium Outerwear for High-Value Gifting
Some clients want pieces that feel elevated, soft-shell jackets, insulated vests, or lined windbreakers. These gifts communicate appreciation, not obligation. They’re perfect for executives, sales teams, volunteers of the year, or VIP client lists.
And thanks to on-demand production, your client doesn’t need to order 200 pieces upfront just to “be safe.”
Easy Add-Ons That Complete a Holiday Shop
Think branded knit beanies, stainless drinkware, blanket throws, travel mugs, and holiday-themed totes. These smaller items pair well with apparel, help build bundles, and give gift-givers more price points to work with. They’re also fast sellers in holiday pop-up shops, where buyers want quick, thoughtful items that still feel personal.
The Power of The 13th Month
Holiday products don’t just check a seasonal box, they give you a business case to stay in front of your clients at the exact time they need help most. When you launch turnkey holiday shops with MOQ1, you aren’t just selling products, you’re:
- Solving end-of-year stress
- Making your client look like the hero
- Building trust that carries into Q1 (and beyond)
That’s the real value of The 13th Month: extra revenue now, longer-lasting relationships later.
How to Position It to Clients
Don’t just show them products, show them scenarios.
- “Here’s what your employee holiday store could look like.”
- “Here’s a low-stress way to handle 200 gift orders.”
- “Here’s how you stay on brand without pre-buying inventory.”
With the right product mix – and MOQ1’s speed, flexibility, and 10K+ in-stock SKUs – your clients get a smooth gifting experience, and you get an extra month of sales most distributors leave on the table.
