Historic hotels that use their history as an asset enhance their guest’s experience. I love learning about the history of my travel destination. The Hotel Del Coronado is a client of Classic Legacy. This year, 2013, is their 125th Anniversary. Many presidents, movie stars, and dignitaries have stayed here. The Hotel Del has even invited guests to share memories. History is a great connector in this “connection economy”, a term I first heard Seth Godin use.
Est. 1888 is the gift store at the Hotel Del that features gifts that evoke memories and history. Here is the story of how we developed one-of-a-kind custom gifts using their historic vintage logo and photo.
Vintage Logo and Photos
We were given a black and white line drawing of the old Hotel Del Logo. We also were given several jpg images of vintage Hotel Del photos.
Our Graphic Artists Create Images for Products
Using the above images our team of graphic artists added color and text to these historic images to create medallions and marble images for Classic Legacy gifts. The buyer approves each step along the way to creating the final custom gifts.
Custom Gifts Created Using Historic Images
The fun part begins. Our team actually creates the custom gifts next. Here are some examples of gifts that are best sellers for The Hotel Del.
Presentation of All Custom Gifts Available
The final step in this process is our presentation. We have found that this presentation is so appreciated and very valuable. It helps our clients actually see all the possibilities and helps them decide what would be best for their marketing.
We love creating custom gifts and welcome the opportunity to serve you. Please call or email us with any questions. 901-756-9339
