The oh-hello! blog

Did someone say Christmas? Yes, you heard right, the festive season is just around the corner! While some are already counting down the days, others will be dreading all the planning that comes with Christmas. Today’s busy lifestyle can mean that buying gifts for your loved ones is yet another pull on your precious time.

As a team manager, you’ll understand the link between a welcoming environment, happy staff and productiveness. This is so important when you have to welcome a new team member at work. We present ideas to welcome in your newbie and create that warm, fuzzy feeling from day one!

Corporate gifting in Australia is the way to show you value your clients, and it's becoming increasingly creative and personal. If you’ve been wondering why corporate gifting is important and want to know more about how it could boost your business, then read on.

When your bestie or a work friend gets that promotion or a new job, you’ll want to do something special to mark the occasion. As one of their nearest and dearest, you already know how much effort they’ve put into their career and the sacrifices they’ve made.

When your friend is going through a tough time, it hurts. Not only for them, but for you too. You wish you could just wave a magic wand and make everything better. It can be even harder if you can’t see them in person because your first instinct is to envelop them in a big, heartfelt hug. 

In short, the answer to “Why oh-hello!?” is that there’s a heartfelt story behind our brand and behind every gift box we send out. Let’s start at the beginning. It’s fair to say that life changed for each and every one of us about 18 months ago when the COVID-19 pandemic kicked off. 

The globe has been in turmoil since the COVID-19 pandemic, turning our own little worlds upside down. As a result, many of us have lost touch with treasured friends while we readjust to the “new normal.” Want to know how to reconnect with old friends? Then read our guide to rekindling those relationships. 

A smile from a stranger, a kind word, a thoughtful gesture... Any random act of kindness, no matter how big or small, can make all the difference. We all perform these acts every day without thinking about them when we make our partner’s coffee in the morning or smile at other commuters on the way to work. 

This week I'm chatting to Johanna, designer and creator of Pink Nade. Pink Nade specialise in designing and creating statement dangles to ROCK your lobes! Johanna initially created Pink Nade within her retail store to fulfil her need for a creative outlet and now Pink Nade is a stand alone business with a team of incredible women. 

Next up in the oh-hello ladies! lineup of inspiring women is Sue Sinko of Sue Sinko Photography.  I have been lucky enough to collaborate with Sue for the launch of oh-hello! and again recently for the oh-hello ladies! campaign.

I hope you're loving our oh-hello ladies! blog series as much as I am! I love hearing about how women started out in business and what inspires them -  so each week I have been chatting to inspiring women who run and operate small businesses, and whose products feature in our oh-hello ladies! gift bundles.
