New Delhi, December 27th, 2016: Ever wished for a Santa on Christmas, ringing your doorbell, with a sack full of gifts? Here is your wish come true! DoneThing brings to you Christmas Special with Santa on Hire! You can now place a request for a Santa to pick your gifts and land up at your doorstep to surprise anyone who opens the door! This Santa could also buy gifts on your behalf to surprise your family.
This service is aimed at reviving the spirit of Christmas for people of all ages, not just the younger audience that shrieks in delight at the sight of a Santa Claus that they've read about in fairytales and storybooks but also the older audience - the parents reminiscing about their childhood Christmas memories too. The concierge industry has always focused on enhancing customer experiences and DoneThing is doing just that for Christmas. In this highly interactive virtual world, DoneThing brings a flavour of reality to make the mundane daily errands fun, and break the monotony of the same old routines on festive days too.
To book a Secret Santa, all you need to do is place a request on the app for a DoneThing Santa, book your time slot and location, finalise the gifts - to be bought or picked in advance - and watch DoneThing set the magic for Christmas! The charges are as nominal as Rs.100 plus delivery charges for the pick-up of the gift. For more details on the service, you can visit the DoneThing website www.donething.com.
"The Santa Claus is no longer a fictional character in today's world that is associated with kids. The emotional connect of the Indian audience is so high that such a surprise for your parents is as likely to swell up tears in the eyes as it is to bring a smile on your child's face. We at DoneThing believe that the Santa Claus should not be lost in books and we want to revive that spirit of Christmas by bringing smiles on faces across Delhi NCR." – Chetan Agarwal, Co-founder DoneThing.
