When it comes to Christmas, gifts are a given! The festive season, for a lot of people, is focused on giving and receiving presents. Whether it’s through Secret Santa between friends, anxiously choosing what to buy your partner or subtly hinting to your family about that thing you’ve been keeping your eye on.
But why should that transfer to the corporate world and buy Christmas gifts for your staff and clients?
Well, at the heart of DRAYTON is our endeavour to make people happy; by going above and beyond to meet crazy deadlines, deliver on the seemingly impossible and work our hardest to achieve the latest mind-boggling request.
Through our work in the branded world, we’ve seen first-hand how much of a positive impact corporate gifting can make. The importance in making people feel valued is immeasurable and something that applies to clients and employees alike. Research shows that (as you’d expect) feeling valued is linked to higher levels of engagement, satisfaction, and motivation; all attributes that are undeniably important in those we work with.
These past few years have been unique. We can probably all agree the workload this year, now that events and hospitality are back, simply puts other years to shame. Everyone needs everything yesterday and expectations have reached a whole new level. It is therefore more important than ever to say thank you to staff for their dedication and hard work.
Over time, we’ve found some of the favourite Christmas gifts for staff, that help finish the year on a positive note are:
Champagne & Chocolate Gift Sets (alcohol free & vegan options available)
Nothing says celebration like a bottle of bubbly and when paired with chocolates you just can’t go wrong. We can brand the label on the bottle, the box containing chocolates and the gift packaging too.
Interactive Gifts such as Cocktail Making Kits (mocktail kits available)
Recently, gifts such as Cocktail Making Kits have become increasingly popular. We can include a branded cocktail shaker, engraved glass and other accessories along with specific ingredients and a cocktail recipe book. For an extra special touch, each kit can be printed with the recipients’ name.
Corporate gifts for staff are predominately to say thank you and to show them they are valued. Although the same can be said for sending gifts to clients, one key factor that separates them is brand awareness. Corporate gifting gives you a chance to keep your brand in customers’ minds whilst associating it with a kind gesture.
Two branded Christmas gifts that we find work well for this are:
The gift that keeps on giving; Advent Calendars enable you to keep your brand on show for the whole of December. With our new range we have increased the personalisation possibilities even further to ensure you can promote your brand effectively. This means as well as branding the packaging, you can select from a variety of stock advent calendars or even supply your own products to enclose behind each door.
A box branded specifically for you, tailored to fit your preference of gifts. First impressions really do count when it comes to gifts and makes all the difference with one’s perception. The box can be branded with your colours, printed with your message, include your recipient’s name for a truly personal touch. The use of branded wrapping paper, tissue paper Christmas card and tags enhance the appearance too.
Inside the box is where the fun starts. Perhaps you would like a wellness theme (bath salts, wellness journal); a homely theme (candles, xmas decoration); an environmental theme (mini xmas tree, seeded calendar); a practical theme (wireless charger, socks) or one of the most popular themes of food and beverage.
With our bespoke hampers, you have the option to choose the exact contents to tailor to your recipient as well as your brand. Hampers can either be shared between a team at the office or be taken home to share with family.
If you’d like to say thank you to your staff and clients, then a branded Christmas gift could be the perfect answer for you. We would love to help you choose your gifts and tailor them to suit your needs. Get in touch with our team of happy helpers on 0118 40 22 777 or email promote@drayton.co.uk.
We look forward to hearing from you!
