Going Corporate

By: Roger Deso

There are many reasons for giving corporate gifts besides saying thank you for the continued business. It may be a way of reminding companies that business is still going on and keeps the name of the company on the minds who are receiving the gift.
Other reasons may be a direct reward for some kind of business venture gone well or because a contract was eventually awarded. Of course, sending gifts while the bidding process is in progress is a big mistake, but once the contract is won, there is nothing to stop the company sending out gifts to reward those who had a hand in the whole process.
Holidays and high days are a very good reason to send out corporate gifts. Continued custom from clients is what makes business sustainable and saying that the company appreciates this is always acceptable. Indeed, many companies will have a client list with all the names of the top grossing clients who will be rewarded once or twice a year. It makes complete sense to show them appreciation even if it is only a token gift.
Even departments of other companies can be rewarded with a corporate gifts . Sometimes the clerical staff smooth the way for orders, invoices and check payments. It would be a great idea to give them some form of celebratory gift basket once or twice a year to help them to celebrate those inevitable holidays. This is also a good time to put your company name right in their offices with logo stamped pens, mugs, mouse mats and all other kinds of office paraphernalia.
Cookie baskets, or cup cake baskets, are always a welcome gift particularly where there is group of workers who process any documents for your company. With the cookies, the company logo is iced on making sure that the name of your company is literally on their lips as they celebrate.
When it comes to giving corporate gifts to the managers or executives of a company, the gift choice is virtually endless. Clever PR staff will have a way of coming up with some great innovative gifts while sticking to a strict budget. Research and some clever enquiries on their part will show what kind of taste the person who is to get the gift has. Of course, it tends to be that the higher up the corporate ladder the person is the more expensive or inclusive the gift will be. Once the ball park figure is decided upon, the quest for that gift that is a little different begins.
With the advent of the internet, many people will find it much easier to browse around for interesting gifts. Perhaps a selection can be chosen for final approval from the Director or person in charge of this side of business. Once this is done, then it is time to decide on whether the gift should be personalized or not.
If the gift is going from one Director to another, it is not really the done thing to put on the company logo or anything that advertises the company. Even if the gift is rather expensive, this tends to cheapen it somewhat and surely this is not the impression that anyone would want to give. Rather, try putting on the initials of the recipient if the gift is to be personalized. Most people love to see their initials etched onto something very beautiful and it adds an enormous amount of prestige to any gift.
For those corporate gifts going to very important executives, try to find out what sport they engage in or follow. For example, most executives will be fond of golf since the golf course is where a lot of deals are hammered out. Even networking goes on while they are playing a round so try to get something that epitomizes the game for them.
Delightful silver mantel clocks, in the shape of a golf cart, make a wonderful gift for the enthusiast. There is room for the executive’s initials to be engraved and this is sure to be a great conversation piece whether it is left in the office for all to see, or taken to his or her residence for safe keeping. Crystal desk clocks will fall into the same category and lend themselves perfectly to the sleek and modern decor of today’s executive office. Again, they can have names or logos engraved and are timeless and elegant.
Something unusual to give out to directors and perhaps upper management teams are beautiful silver key rings. Although these do not sound like they are very exciting, quite the reverse is true. Some of these styles are absolutely unique and have great design features. In fact, some are so innovative that many start a collection of them to keep for the future.
Imagine giving a silver key ring with lovely fortune cookie – also in silver – that hinges open so that a personal message can be included. What a great way to wish someone luck for the future. Then there are the key rings with a fully operational clock included. These make delightful conversation pieces for the executive boardroom! Some key rings also have an old fashioned pocket watch fitting which is just as wonderful.
For the executive who wants to carry around photos of his loved ones, there is a particularly chic looking locket key ring . This looks like a very masculine style key ring and can be personalized with the recipient's initials.
Of course, not everyone will appreciate a key ring or a cookie basket. For those who like all kinds of gourmet food, there are some superb gift baskets on the market. These are filled with exotic pates, coffees, nuts and some unusual cheeses. In fact, everything for a great and delicious picnic lunch for the executive and his family. Some baskets also include some fine wines just to round off the whole meal. Tie it all up with a personalized ribbon, and this makes a beautiful gift to give to the executive who has everything!
