Nippy weather and the return of the Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Latté can only mean one thing: the holiday season is just around the corner. If you’re a business owner, you might have already started writing your annual holiday cards to clients. But here at Delysia, we encourage you to think beyond the Turkey Day or X-mas greetings if you really want to wow your customers. Why not send your clients an extra special gift?

Corporate gift giving is a great way to let clients know how much you appreciate them – but that’s not the only reason to be generous this season. Check out the top four reasons you should consider sending corporate gifts (and if you’re looking for a blow-their-socks-off gift for clients, we’ve got some info for you on Delysia’s own corporate gift offerings).

1. There’s power in a personal touch. The number one reason to give corporate gifts? To build and nurture relationships. A simple, thoughtful gift shows clients how much you truly value them. As the saying goes, people do business with those they know, like, and trust, and extending a “thanks for working with us” gift is a sure way to build all three. Your clients will certainly like — maybe even love! — you after they receive a small block of artisan Delysia chocolate customized with your brand identity.

2. Stay top of mind. Let’s face it: chances are your company is just one of many that clients can turn to when they’re in need. That’s why staying in front of clients is so important – you won’t fall prey to the dreaded “out of sight, out of mind” syndrome. Sending corporate gifts are a boon to businesses because it’s a chance to touch clients outside of the office setting. Your client will think of you every time he, say, bites into a large block of delicious Delysia chocolate emblazoned with your logo.

3. Build and strengthen your brand. Think of corporate gift giving as another exercise in marketing your company’s brand. Whether you choose to send a luxurious gift or lighthearted one says a lot about your business. You can reinforce your brand in the eyes of your clients – or tweak it if you’re going in a new direction – with what sort of gift you decide to send. If you’re looking to send a message of luxury, look no further than Delysia’s corporate truffles.

4. Show appreciation to employees. Corporate gifts aren’t just for clients – show your employees how much you appreciate their hard work with a little something extra special. Just like how choosing certain corporate gifts can help build your brand in the eyes of clients, employee gifting can help shape a certain corporate culture for your business.
