The
Challenge

Capital Vacations wanted to elevate their New Owner Kit experience.
The original new owner kit included a thumb drive and closing documents inside a gift box. Capital Vacations was concerned that their kit was not substantially different than their competitors. They wanted to create a premium “gift box” experience for their customers that would differentiate the brand.
The current kit has been in use for 8 years and looks outdated. Competitors have recently updated their own kits.

The
Solution

Create a high-end gift box similar to the look and feel of Apple packaging.
Thumbprint collaborated with Capital Vacations on a high-end, experiential owner kit. This Capital Vacations portfolio would include a soft-touch gift box, a pen, a USB with all owner documents, a 150-page photo book highlighting all of the resorts available to the new owners and a video explaining all the benefits the new owner will be receiving. The new kits adhere to the prescribed budget.
