Yes, it’s October. Your thoughts are filled with football, the Arkansas State Fair and Halloween candy. Maybe it’s already time to replenish your original supply. (We have!) And now here we are talking about corporate holiday gift planning. C’mon, really?
Really. Your December self will thank you.
Corporate gift-giving sneaks up on you. One minute you’re carving pumpkins, and the next someone asks, “Hey, what are we giving our team this year?” Then the panic ensues. You realize you need 75 gifts, personalized, packaged and delivered to your holiday event by next Thursday. Scary stuff, huh?
No worries. We have you covered.
Our Motto: Early elves have more options.
Yes, it’s October, but now is the perfect time to start your corporate holiday gift planning. Starting now doesn’t mean you need every detail figured out today. It gives you more time to explore available gifts, add personal touches and choose something people will actually want and use. And it reduces the chance of settling for whatever’s left. After all, it’s the season of Ho Ho Ho, not Ho Ho Hum.
Now that we’ve put you in the holiday mood, who’s on your Nice List?
- Employees?
- Customers and clients?
- Board members?
- Volunteers?
- VIPs?
- Event guests?
- That one person who already owns everything known to humankind?
Once you know who, we can help you figure out what. And that’s where the fun part begins.
A great corporate gift doesn’t have to be expensive or extravagant. It should feel thoughtful. Useful is good. Useful with a little personality is even better. Something that makes the recipient think, “Oh, this is cool,” beats something destined for the junk drawer every time.
To make the season a little less hectic, start with three things:
- Create your Nice List.
- Set your budget.
- Determine your in-hand date.
Then let’s find that perfect gift.
We’ve put together our Holiday Gift Guide to give you ideas and get the wheels turning. Browse it now, bookmark your favorites, send us the ones you like, or just tell us who you’re shopping for and let us help. You don’t have to finish your holiday shopping today. But it’s the perfect time to get started.
Now go ahead, have just one more piece of Halloween candy. You deserve it.
