Since being launched in the midst of the pandemic, Macorner has already fulfilled almost 2 million orders for unique and fun items from customers worldwide, especially for major holidays such as Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Christmas, etc. and this will be its third Mother’s Day.
Popular items this year range from home décor, apparel, and drinkware to accessories such as keychains, signs, and phone cases. “We have created a one-stop shop for your ‘corner’, whether it’s decorating your living space or buying gifts for loved ones,” said Mr. Liam Nelson, CEO of Macorner. “And we’re ready to be the exceptional gift provider again in 2023.”
Macorner’s specialty is custom drawings of loved ones, furry friends included. On its website, customers can start a project from scratch or choose from a variety of templates that emphasize family, friends, pet lovers, relationships, and more. And they’re not just for seasonal events but also for every occasion year-round. “Personalized gifts are great for any occasion,” said Mr. Nelson. “Whether it’s recognizing an employee, a co-worker, or a family member’s milestone, people love to see themselves represented in the gift itself and gift givers love the ‘wow’ factor.”
In addition, Macorner rolls out new products constantly, many in the home décor category. Though barely two years old, the company’s goal is to create a one-stop shop for customers to have fun and express themselves, whether with a Mother’s Day-themed acrylic plaque for decoration, a wine tumbler, a pillow, or an item of clothing. “Since the pandemic began, we have all been living inside a bubble, and our homes have become both cocoons and refuges,” said Mr. Nelson. “We believe that it is so important to fill our bubbles with friends and family and memories.”
One thing Macorner is not about is surprises, at least the kind that produce unhappy returns. On its website, a special AI-driven graphics tool shows the finished product before ordering, which is a little like being in a high-tech workshop but easier and hopefully a lot cozier.
Macorner stresses that aspiring designers need not fear, as they will have plenty of help from actual people too. Throughout the holiday season, agents will provide personalized support 24/7, working as quickly as possible to answer questions and meet special requests. “We know it’s natural to become excited and maybe even a little bit anxious when you give a unique gift for the first time,” Mr. Nelson said. “However, we’ve made the process fun and stress-free. You or your parents or significant others will receive a top-quality, personalized gift and everyone will end up feeling very happy.”
