March Madness is usually about buzzer-beaters and bracket surprises. This year we brought the bracket excitement to the office with our very own Merch Madness.
We kicked things off with our Elite 8 - eight pieces of swag that were sent out the same day the NCAA tournament tipped off. Then the fun began. Every week for three weeks, our team got updated brackets showing which items had advanced. Votes weren't just for fun: each vote entered the voter into a grand prize raffle for the ultimate winning piece of merch. The goal? Turn our love for great merch into a fun, interactive way to engage the team internally.
The competition heated up fast, moving from the Elite 8 to the Final 4 and finally the Championship Round. By the end, our team wasn't just voting, they were debating, cheering, and eagerly anticipating which product would take home the crown (and who would be the lucky winner).
Merch Madness proved something we already know: thoughtful products do way more than collect dust. They get people talking, engaging, and connecting.
It was a reminder that at BRANDITO, merch isn't just merch. it's a chance to create experiences, spark participation, and make something memorable!
Curious which products made it to the final round this year? Check out the bracket below! If something catches your eye for your team, reach out and let's make it happen!
