M&A Merch
TWO COMPANIES. ONE TEAM.
The deal closes in a day. Becoming one team takes longer. The first weeks are when people on both sides decide whether they joined something or got absorbed, and what lands on their desk or doorstep says more than the all-hands deck.
Rec League designs the physical welcome: Day One kits and apparel that give both teams something shared to wear. We build for the reality of integration: confidential timelines, a brand direction that may not be final, dozens of locations, remote employees, and a date that can't move. We can start before the announcement, under NDA, with a design that works whichever way the brand lands.
Merch people keep, because it feels like a welcome, not a handout.
How We Think About the Welcome
A welcome, not a rebrand-at-you: acquired teams should feel invited, not absorbed
Cohesion over logos: shared design both teams can own, so nobody is a guest
Built to work before the brand is final: combined, new or unchanged
Day One is the start, not the finish: moments at 30, 60 and 90 days keep the welcome going
