STORY

BEGINNING. It all started with a gift idea. I wanted to surprise my brother, a competitive Ping-Pong® player and a fan of the game, with something meaningful—a gift that was personal, unique, and thoughtful—something to make him smile and show him how much I care. Thanks to my background in graphic design and print-on-demand, it hit me—why not order a personalized Ping-Pong® ball just for him?

FIRST BALL. I designed a ball with his name—not for tournaments, just for fun. When it arrived, his smile said it all. It wasn’t just about the ball itself; it was the thought and care behind it that made it so special.

RESEARCH. Seeing how much joy that ball brought, I got curious. Was I the only one who thought of gifting a personalized Ping-Pong® ball? I opened my laptop and started researching. Thousands of people were already buying them—for beer pong, bachelor parties, weddings, anniversaries, even with their pet’s face on a ball. I had no idea it was such a popular gift! BUT...

PROBLEM. After reading hundreds of reviews, I noticed a major issue. While recipients loved the gift, gifters often felt disappointed. The designs were too small, sometimes barely readable, making the experience underwhelming. Ordering was frustrating—too much back-and-forth with sellers. Reordering a set meant reaching out again, making it hard to get the same balls later. I realized the need for a solution where personalized Ping-Pong® balls were always available, easy to order and reorder, with designs that truly stood out on the small print surface.

SOLUTION. The more I learned, the more I wanted to fix these problems. It felt like a calling—cheesy as it may sound—a mission to create beautifully designed, ready-to-order personalized Ping-Pong® balls that bring joy—not just for the recipient, but also for the gifter. That’s how pieces started to come together—PPB would stand for professionally designed, always available, and effortless to order and reorder.

VISION. Become the go-to store for personalized Ping-Pong® balls, with thousands of ready-to-order, always available designs. People’s requests bring that vision to life, making it easier to find the perfect ball. And maybe, just maybe, PPB helps spread a little more joy—Personalized Ping-Pong® Ball at a time.
