    1. Make it personal.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Corporate gift baskets are a great opportunity to get creative with your branding. When you\u2019re putting together a holiday gift basket, you should try to match the type or style of basket to the people who\u2019ll be receiving it. So, think about the department or group that\u2019s going to be getting the gift. Are they a wine and cheese crowd? Maybe they\u2019re more into chocolate and candy. Are they always chatting about pop culture? Or, do they all rave about how much they\u2019d love a day at the spa? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Ask your employees or team members if they have any insights based on interactions or conversations they\u2019ve had. It\u2019s never a bad thing to reference an inside joke or something personal that you\u2019ve connected over. After all, who wouldn’t love a funny personalized tee or a mousepad designed with the punchline from an inside joke?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Keep timing in mind.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    It seems obvious that you\u2019d like your holiday corporate gift basket to arrive right in time for the holidays. But this might not be the best idea – you may want to send your gift a little ahead of time to make sure that everyone is still in the office. For the holiday season, early December is probably your best bet. Not many people have taken time off at this point, so everyone should be there to unwrap and enjoy the goodies you\u2019ve sent along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Decide who gets a gift basket.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    You likely do business with a lot of different individuals, groups or departments. Make sure you think about how many people your gift basket could cater to. Otherwise, people might not only get left out, but it might seem like you\u2019re giving a generic gift, impersonal gift. For example, you wouldn’t want to send a gift basket with snacks for 10 people to a group of 50. And on the flip side, it\u2019s never a bad idea to include a little extra\u2026it’ll make you look that much more thoughtful and generous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you don’t have room in your budget to send a gift basket to *everyone* on your client list, prioritize customers who have stuck with you the longest, or the ones who consistently come back to do business with you. Show appreciation for newer customers with something more wallet-friendly, like a holiday card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. Get creative with gift basket ideas.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Now, it\u2019s time to decide what to put in the gift basket. You can always go on a little shopping spree of your own to come up with something special – check with makers in your area to find some truly special gift basket-sized goodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
