If you are working 9-5 just to stay alive, the kits will make your day a little bit better -- even if you have to put in longer hours, create an elaborate presentation or face an unexpected power outage. 'The Overtime' pack comes with a [stress ball](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ma-camilla-isabel-reyes), "do not disturb” badges, peanut butter energy bars and a guide of tricks to keep you calm. 'The Presentation,' on the other hand, includes things to make you look your best in front of a client: [bow ties, a laser pointer, deodorant](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glow-rescue-kit) and a book about "the art of convincing." As for 'The Power Outage,' it contains everything you need to pass the time in dark situations. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 31% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Office Survival Kits:** The rising popularity of quirky office survival kits presents an opportunity for creative businesses to create new and personalized survival packs for different office settings. - **Wellness Products for Office Workers:** Creating wellness products that are relevant and helpful to office workers can be a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies seeking to connect with this market. - **Corporate Gifting:** Office survival kits can be a unique and useful corporate gifting idea in today's competitive business environment, presenting an opportunity for creative businesses to design and market customized survival packs. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Office Supplies and Stationery:** The trend of office survival kits offers opportunities for office supplies and stationery companies to create office kits or to include custom survival kits as a marketing incentive for their existing offerings. - **Fitness and Wellness:** The prominence of wellness products in office survival kits offers a new market for fitness and wellness companies to create products specifically for office workers to help them stay fit and healthy on the job. - **Marketing and Promotional Products:** The trend of office survival kits presents opportunities for companies in the marketing and promotional product industry to create and offer customized kits as a new product category for their clients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Briefcase-Compact Office Set-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-office-1.md) - [Happy Desk Salad Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-desk-salad-kits.md) - [Office-Ready Slump Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2pm-2pack.md) - [Korean Game-Inspired Desk Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playful-desk-accessories.md) - [Creativity Enhancing WFH Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/other-angles-collection.md) - [Portable Personal Office Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beblau-vertical-office.md) - [Quirky Solo Office Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/work-capsules.md) - [Productive Desk Accessory Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yazak.md) - [Curated Office Essentials Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-essentials.md)
