Elevate Gift Guide, presented by Elevate SoCal, features 100 gifts under $100 and is released twice per year in November before the holidays and in May before Summer.
US-based small business owners are invited to apply to have one product featured in the guide. Businesses must have at least 100 units in stock by the time the guide is released (November or May), must be in one of our approved categories, and be able to fulfill orders in a reasonable amount of time while providing excellent customer service.
There is no fee to apply, but space is extremely limited and there is a cost to be included in the gift guide. We have a variety of options available with different rates below.
