Staples Brings Back the Iconic Easy Button for its 20th Anniversary
Redefining What "Easy" Means for the Modern Consumer and Workplace FRAMINGHAM, Mass., May 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In celebration of the Easy Button's 20th anniversary, Staples is bringing back the beloved icon — a move that transcends nostalgia. First introduced in 2005, the Easy Button and its unforgettable catchphrase, "That was easy," quickly became a pop culture hit, with millions of buttons sold and a lasting place in offices, classrooms, and internet memes alike. Now, it returns as a symbol of how Staples has evolved to meet the needs of today's customers and the realities of modern life. Because, let's face it, life isn't easy. From juggling new ways of working to navigating the growing demands at home and on the job, educators, parents, and businesses of every size are balancing more than ever. That's why "easy" still matters and why Staples is more committed than ever to simplifying life for its customers. "The Easy Button stood for more than convenience. It represented how Staples took the stress out of getting things done," said Marshall Warkentin, President, Staples U.S. Retail. "Twenty years later, that promise still holds true — just in more meaningful ways. We now support customers with a breadth of services and solutions, from print and marketing to tech support, shipping, travel, returns, and more." "We are thrilled to bring back the Easy Button as a reflection of everything Staples and Staples Business stands for, from supporting school districts, to serving the nation's leading healthcare systems, and partnering with Fortune 500 companies," added Michele Parzianello, Chief Sales Officer, Staples Business.

The Easy Button returns with a new advertising campaign designed to shift perceptions around the breadth of Staples' and Staples Business' expertise. The work features bold creative across out-of-home, digital, social, radio, and streaming platforms, quite literally opening the iconic red button to reveal how far the brand has evolved.

From productivity tips to sharp takes on LinkedIn, E.B. offers a playful perspective on the realities of modern work. "This campaign is more than a cultural comeback, it's a bold reintroduction of the Easy Button and what it represents for consumers and businesses in 2025," said Amy Steel Vanden-Eykel, Chief Marketing Officer, Staples.
