Gift Giving and the Holidays

With the holiday season officially started with Thanksgiving tomorrow, we thought it a good idea to pass along a few ideas on gift giving for your clients and hosts.

Here's a short list of what and how to give:

• If you go to a dinner party or holiday part, consider bringing a bottle of wine. If your host isn't a drinker, opt for a simple fruit basket.
• Company gift exchanges usually have rules on dollar amounts and types of gifts. Neutral gifts such as artwork, desk accessories or a clock work in these instances.
• Annual gifts to clients or prospects can vary depending on how many you have and your budget. From elaborate gift baskets to gifts such as warming blankets, choose carefully.
• Thank you cards after you've attended an event are an excellent idea, when done sincerely, to keep you and your host in each others' thoughts.

Happy Holidays and have a great Thanksgiving.
