Corporate Gifts

Author: Lands' End30 Nov 11, 02:51 PM

Christmas is coming and for lots of businesses that means an uplift in sales and some very busy weeks, followed by some well earned bank holidays!

It’s also the time to be thinking about buying gifts for family and friends and in some cases, your staff and customers.

Corporate gifting is becoming more common in the UK, with companies buying thank you gifts at Christmas for staff and customers alike. These items may well be promotional products, the likes of which can also be used for events and marketing, but can also be items along the lines of vouchers and gift cards.

Rewarding staff for a year of hard work at Christmas has obvious benefits; staff feel that their contribution to the business has been recognised and corporate gifts are a lovely way for companies to embrace the festive season.

Rewarding your customers though, is probably something new to lots of companies. Thanking customers for their loyalty and custom over the year with corporate gifts is a great way to make sure that you are top of the list for their next purchase.

Here at Lands’ End we thank our staff (and our customers) in lots of different ways at Christmas! Why not take a leaf out of our book and thank yours with some of our ideas below?

• Have your managers deliver tea and coffee to busy sales staff and serve up Christmas Dinner, like our Directors do!

• Why not send a Thermacheck Scarf and Hat to your best customers, to keep them warm over the festive period?

• At Lands’ End we receive additional staff discount in the run up to Christmas so that we can treat our families- and ourselves! We also offer customers great discounts in December as a ‘thank you’.

• A Down Gilet is a great corporate gift for staff - and can even be embroidered with your company logo

• Why not try producing small hampers or gift bags for staff with Christmas essentials- mince pies, mulled wine kits and chestnuts for roasting? Our totes are perfect for this and can be embroidered.

• Thermacheck Throws make a thoughtful gift to staff and customers and can be monogrammed with your teams names and gift boxed.

• Gift Cards and Vouchers make a great gift for staff, letting them choose items that they really want, with many vouchers covering lots of different stores.
