2015 holiday gifting guide
TRANSCRIPT
Those who gift,
WIN.
The holidays open up the perfect opportunity for you to reach out
to prospects and customers to move your relationship forward,
no matter what the stage. A good gift can help to retain a client,
secure a renewal, or even close a deal.
We’ve got your back, Jack.
We’ve compiled a list of our favorite trending gifts with tips on
best practices for sending, as well as a handy budget guide.
Leather Phone Case $
We’re firm believers that one
can never have too many phone
cases, especially when they’re as fine
and functional as these. Consider sending
a bundle that includes both Android and iPhone cases to an
office or department. Pair it with a personal note to send a
thoughtful, low-cost gift.

company who wants to show a trendy side.

You know your customer’s time is important,
so why not give a gift that says so? (Make sure you

It syncs to devices via Bluetooth, uses GPS tracking, and even
communicates with other Tiles to help find lost items.

paper. Cone knows to play something bluesy.” If you’re a company that
prides yourself in creating high-end experiences for your customers,

splurge that tells them how much their business means to you. Plus

Be honest, one look at the Cubebot
and you wish he was sitting on your
desk right now. We get it, and your
customers will, too. Not only is this gift
perfect for the office, it also boasts the winning ability to be brought

they are outside of the office. #winning.

The Octagon
No, we’re not talking about the greatest
Chuck Norris flick of all time (although
that would make a great gift too). We’re talking about puzzles like
you’ve never seen. This wooden brain teaser is a low-cost gift that feels
like a high-end item. Great for keeping in brainstorming spaces and
creative meeting rooms.

While you might think the

gift, its potential stretches much further than that.

your quarterly budget recap to the kids’ cartoons—right from your
phone or tablet. Trust us, your clients will appreciate the versatility.

The holidays provide the perfect opportunity for you to make a
real, valuable connection with customers and prospects. The fun
doesn’t stop there, though. To really stand out, consider sending
a New Year’s gift to your customers and prospects. You’ll
demonstrate that you care—and not just because it’s December.
Our clients use gifts year-round as powerful sales, marketing, and
customer appreciation tools—and have seen increases in ROI by as
much as 1,500% compared to their efforts without these touches.
We may not be as cute as Santa’s elves, but we can help
you get great gifts into the hands of your customers, and
winning results into yours. Find out how.
