Luxury Business Gift Guide

Whether it’s to celebrate a business deal, mark a work anniversary or simply say thank-you to a colleague or customers at Christmas time - there’s so many reasons why you should choose to give a business gift. Business Gifts are the perfect way of showing your appreciation, and although some companies and individuals shy away from giving gifts - in our experience, it’s very rare that giving a gift is the wrong decision. There are however, a couple of things to consider to make sure that the gift is well chosen, and as a result - well received.

Business Gift Giving Occasions

Some of the most common occasions for giving gifts in the world of business, are as follows:

• During specific holidays, such as Christmas
• Life events such as weddings or the birth of a child
• Celebrating a recent promotion
• Celebrating a new contract/completion of a project
• Recognising that somebody has gone well beyond the call of duty

Keep it Relevant

One of the most important things with gift giving full stop, is keeping it relevant. Consider your client’s or colleagues interests - and if you do not know them, buy a gift which has universal appeal.

Skip the Promotional Material

A gift should be just that - a token of appreciation. Do not use the opportunity to go mega corporate sending them garishly company branded materials. Nobody appreciates 50 mouse mats in the post.
