July 2025 Lookbook Release Roundup: Holiday 2025 Gifting Guide, PCNA, & More!

We’ve been hard at work at Merch.ai these past few months. Subscribers have welcomed our all-new Custom Presentations tool (check it out here). We’ve also launched an updated website that clearly outlines our product offerings and shows how the promo industry benefits from Merch.ai.

We didn’t forget our PDF Lookbook subscribers. Last week we released our Holiday 2025 Gifting Guide, a massive catalog featuring the latest and greatest products for the 2025 holiday season. Clients are already placing orders to meet production, logistical, and fiscal deadlines—and that’s exactly why we’re arming subscribers with the tools to close as many deals as possible.

The Holiday 2025 Gifting Guide is one of our best yet, featuring state-of-the-art lifestyle imagery that showcases your clients’ brands better than ever. The catalog has something for everyone: branded holiday apparel, outdoor accessories, snacks, gadgets and more. This wide variety of products, combined with our advanced logo-decoration effects, makes the Holiday 2025 Gifting Guide a powerful sales tool and a great source of project inspiration. In fact, all of our catalogs and flyers maintain this same level of detail and quality.

How to use the Holiday 2025 Gifting Guides

1. Re-engage existing clients

With holiday production deadlines approaching fast, now is the time to reconnect with clients from earlier this year. You can use these deadlines to create a sense of urgency. Sending a brief check-in email with a link to a custom-branded Holiday 2025 Gifting Guide will set you apart from the competition.

2. Cold prospecting

Now is the moment to pursue that unicorn client you’ve always wanted. Enterprise teams have budgets they need to spend by year-end, and there’s no better way to get a foot in the door than with a polished lookbook full of great ideas and stunning branded-product lifestyle images.

3. Project inspiration

If you already have projects on the books, kick them off in style with our Gifting Guide. Clients will be impressed from the start by how good their brand looks across a wide range of products. Lifestyle imagery helps them visualize how awesome products will look on themselves, on employees, and in their customers’ hands. It’s the perfect antidote to creative stagnation when everyone seems to be doing the same thing.

April 2025 Lookbook Release Roundup

We find ourselves at the end of another month—and that means it’s time for another lookbook roundup! This time we’re spotlighting everything that dropped in April 2025. Time really does fly in the promotional-products world.

Over the past four weeks we released one full catalog and two new flyers. While we usually push out a larger slate of lookbooks, we intentionally slowed the cadence so we could listen to our users, study emerging trends, and recalibrate for the fast-moving promo landscape. At the same time, we’ve been doubling down on expanding our design team. Growing that bench is a top priority so our future releases can match all of our users’ needs—not just a select few. (Stay tuned for more on that soon!)

Below is a detailed breakdown of every April 2025 lookbook, complete with featured products and brands:

American Made (Catalog)

American Made is a 9 page catalog that celebrates good-ole’ homegrown USA products and manufacturing. We’re all aware of the elephant in the room. The big scary T-word. But that’s exactly why Merch.ai is committed to giving our users’ the tools they need to win more business, even in the fluidity of the promotional product landscape.

There’s a little bit of everything in this catalog from t-shirts to flashlights. Yet each product is guaranteed to be the absolute highest quality you would expect of a well-known heritage USA brand. So login and start generating today!

“Backyard Fun” is a one page flyer to help you quickly upsell products that are sure to be a hit during the best outdoor season of the year. Because what’s better than bucket hats and a game a bags? Now if only we could brand cans of beer at a distributor level…we can dream, right?

Perfect Color Match (Flyer)

“Perfect Color Match” is a simple one-page flyer but a POWERFUL one. Let’s face it, there are A LOT of good t-shirt brands out there but it can be a nightmare to sort through the color options to find something that matches your clients’ brand guidelines as closely as possible.

This is where Merch.ai comes in. We’ve done the heavy lifting for you and made a simple flyer that utilizes our proprietary AI algorithms to color match SPOT ® Solid Coat to a brand’s multi-color logo. This is the perfect flyer to help you prospect easy t-shirt business.

All Merch.ai subscribers enjoy exclusive access to our carefully curated lookbooks, each packed with premium products sure to impress any client once their logo is applied.
