Gifting
Presenting gifting brands and retailers with platforms to pitch-in their ranges to the national media ahead of key dates in the retail calendar, helping them to secure valuable coverage opportunities, increase brand awareness, and drive consumer interest during peak gifting periods.
The Christmas Press Show
Gifting brands have been choosing the Christmas Press Show to pitch their hero products, best-sellers and festive ranges to hundreds of media publications in one day, whilst saving on budget. The effective and efficient format of the showcase allows high street and e-commerce brands to place their products in the hands of the most influential media in a more impactful way than a press release could, whilst freeing up resources in the lead up to the Golden Quarter.
Power Pitching
Our series of Power Pitching events are held ahead of key gifting occasions in the retail calendar, including Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Christmas, providing the perfect platform for gifting brands to highlight their latest products, seasonal releases and best-sellers to 25 national media. The journalists in attendance share what they’re looking to feature, helping brands and retailers to tailor their offerings and pitches and secure national coverage opportunities.

"CIJ's Power Pitching sessions are one of the best ways we’ve found to get our products in front of quality journalists quickly and effectively. In just an hour, we can connect with relevant Top Tier media contacts, which is a huge win for a smaller brand like ours. Without the budget for regular press events, it’s an affordable, consistent way to share new launches and stay on the media’s radar."
