Corporate gift giving ideas are best discussed within the
company level. Gift giving can be a touchy issue and it will be
great to have another colleague(s) to brain storm it. The benefits of corporate
gift giving can never be underestimated and its time to put
on your thinking cap. Very often that customer is also shared by
another colleague in the company. Your colleague might have sent
the customer a gift before and by now have some knowledge about
the customer personal tastes or interests.
Once your colleague has agreed to your suggestion to send the
customer a gift, with the combined budget, the choice of gift is
probably limited by ones' imagination. Isn't a better choice to
present a uniquely memorable gift than to present 2 ordinary
gifts from the same company?
Corporate gift giving ideas should adhere the following
concerns:
1) Timing of gift
That well sought customer of yours is probably an Anchor
customer to another rival company. Everybody budget for gift can
never be the same and it is best not to send your gift within
that same working week. Worst, if your gift is heaven and earth
apart in comparison! Although this is a very difficult question
to answer but with some efforts through getting to know your
customer better daily, subtle hints can generate a wealth of
knowledge about your customer for your benefits.
2) Gift policy
It is better to be safe than sorry in checking out the gift
policy of your own company and the customer. You might be new in
this company and what is being practiced in your previous
company might not be applicable to the present company.
Incurring personal expense and yet against your company policy
can be detrimental for career advancement.
Most companies have some sort of gift policy for the recipient.
It is probably set on the number or the value of the gift.
Others can be vague and define it as a "token" gift. In some
extreme, no gift is allowed !
3) Desired gift The effort of getting a desired gift
out-weights a less desirable gift for the relationship building.
Since the intention is clear, might as well make it a superb
corporate gift giving idea to the delight of the customer! How,
you will wonder? Well, can you still remember that perfect
timing of the gift for the customer birthday through constant
conversations and subtle information gathering questions? Am
glad this suggestion brings a smile to your face!
Basically the above are just some of the corporate gift giving
ideas which you knew but just didn't find time to polish it to
perfection to bring your relationship with your customers to the
highest degree.
