Every holiday season, businesses of all sizes search for the perfect gift for their devoted customers, employees, and business partners. The challenge is tricky, as each of these audiences needs a gift that is tailored to them and adequately expresses appreciation for the role they play in your business.

Holiday gifts, like any other gift, need to be useful and present real value to their beholders. This is especially important during the holiday season, as the perceived value of a gift is often seen to indicate how valued one is as a customer or a team member. That’s why choosing a high-quality gift tailored to each of your unique audiences is so important. In this blog, we’ve broken down some of our best gift suggestions by category, so you can find something for every group on your list!

Calendars: A Classic Choice

Calendars are an obvious choice for an end-of-year or holiday gift. Not only are they perfectly suited to help ring in the new year, but they’re also lightweight, affordable, and highly customizable. Paper calendars can easily be mailed individually, packed in with customer orders, or slid into your customers’ shopping bags – and just about anyone can find use for a calendar.

Wall and Desk calendars will live in your audiences’ homes or offices all year long, reminding them of your brand every day. You can choose from dozens of themes to match your brand personality and even create a custom message to accompany your logo on the spacious imprint area, allowing for an extra level of personalization that just isn’t possible with many other kinds of products.

Brand-Name Bags

Work bags and backpacks are extremely common gifts, especially for employees. This holiday season, why not add a little extra oomph to your customized bags by choosing a brand name product your employees will recognize? By customizing a high-quality bag from a popular brand, you can increase the perceived value of your gift. This is especially true if you choose a brand that is relevant to your employee’s values and lifestyles.

Home and Kitchen

Kitchen-related gifts like cutting boards and mugs give a cozy feel and are practical for hosting, making them an ideal gift choice for the holiday season! The wonderful thing about kitchen and food-related gifts is that everyone’s got to eat, so these kinds of gifts apply to a broad and varied audience. They can easily become high-use items or even high-quality display pieces in your audiences’ homes, and they can last for a very long time.

Bar Accessories

Alcohol and its related accessories are a reliable option when the goal is to create a sophisticated gift. You can never go wrong with glassware, and while a customized wine glass is the go-to for many, a branded pint glass or whiskey shooter can be an interesting alternative that’s unique enough to make a lasting impression. These items, like kitchen items, can be used regularly or displayed on bar carts and decorative shelves, to be used for social events and other occasions. An eye-catching accessory, like our Crystal Bottle Stopper, can also make a unique and noteworthy addition to any home bar.

Professional Pens

A high-quality pen makes an impactful business gift. These gifts shine especially bright as tokens for your professional partners and contacts. The beauty of a luxury branded pen is that it takes advantage of a quintessential and historically effective promotional product, and elevates it to become a high-value gift that aims to impress. Our recommendation is the Elite Executive Pen, a silver and black, twist-action barrel pen that comes in its very own gift case.
