Gift Giving Tips
What kind of gift is appropriate? For a welcoming gift? promotion acknowledgement? prospective client? long distance family? There are so many possibilities when giving gifts that it is often overwhelming. What hobbies are they in to? type of food? These details are sometimes impossible to acquire when you need them, but one way we can help is through our gifting tips... Regardless of what your specific situation, if you stay within some common guidelines and suggestions, your gift giving experience will be rewarding for both parties.
Here are a few gifting tips:
- Try standing out in the off-season. If you truly want to be noticed, avoid the December rush altogether and send your gifts, for example, in the summer. Or try sending Thanksgiving "gratitude gifts"
- Consider food. About half of those surveyed in a recent American Express corporate gift-giving survey give food-related gifts. But be creative about the food if you can. If you're from Wisconsin, send some sausage and cheese.
- New in the office? If you're unsure of the gift-giving policy or etiquette, definitely ask around. You don't want to be in a position where you set new trends unilaterally--and you equally don't want to come off like a grinch.
Time and effort rarely goes unnoticed. Taking the time to make sure gifts are packaged creatively will reflect well on you. Shop now!
