6 Creative Gift Ideas To Show Your Appreciation
This year has been full of curveballs. Your clients and employees have stuck loyally by your side. With the holidays approaching, it’s a great opportunity to show your appreciation.
As you’re brainstorming ideas, why not consider giving high-quality custom gifts to your clients and strategic partners?
Why Giving Custom Gifts Boosts Your Reputation
Gift-giving is a common business practice that has lost its popularity since the digital age has made it easier to send e-cards, etc. Consequently, physical gifts are much more appreciated.
Gift-giving strengthens your relationship with the recipient and triggers the recipient to want to give back – either with their business or referrals. Especially when you send custom and branded gifts, you expand your brand exposure. Consider sending gifts to your:
- Current clients
- Prospective clients
- Strategic (or referral) partners
Gift-giving also builds brand exposure. When your recipients are sporting their custom appreciation gifts, their network will ask them about you.
Giving gifts communicates to your recipient you are thinking about them. They are more likely to re-engage with you and potentially buy more products/services from you.
In the end, gift-giving boosts your reputation with the recipient and their network.
