Keeping Up with the Season

The holidays are always a bit overwhelming, but this year feels extra intense, right? Tight budgets, some of us flying solo for the holidays, and who's got the time to sort out gifts for everyone?

Well, IMS has got your back this season. You can save some much-needed cash by swapping goods and services! Don’t stress about cooking up a storm or finding time to whip up a holiday feast. Many restaurants and caterers offer pre-cooked meals. And hey, a pie left on a loved one’s doorstep is the perfect “thinking of you” gesture!

Worried about maintaining those important customer relationships without breaking the bank? Trade for gorgeous cookies, cupcakes, jams, and more!

Oh, and let’s not forget about your hardworking employees. Treat them to some tasty goodies or even supply holiday meals as bonuses.

Where to find all this goodness? Just check out the Local Holiday Goodies section of the IMS Marketplace! From ham dinners to beautifully decorated cookies, we’ve got you covered.
