Business Gift Ideas For Customers

Show your clients how much you appreciate their business.


Business gifts tell your customers you appreciate their business. The token of appreciation can result in future business, and the gifts are often tax-deductable. Give a business gift after the completion of a business transaction, on the customer's birthday, as a holiday gift or another special occasion.


Personalized Gift


A personalized gift is sometimes the best option when you have a long customer list. When ordered in bulk, you receive discount prices. For the business on a strict budget, there is a broad price spectrum from which to choose. Personalized gifts might be something for your customer's office or home, or for recreational purposes. Personalized gift options include sterling silver-plated USB flash key chains, desk sets, appointment books, calendars, pen sets, business card cases, desk clocks, bookends, gym bags, money clips, pocket knife key rings, jewelry boxes, compact mirrors, poker set, tie case and passport jackets. Depending on your gift choice, personalize the item with the customer's initials or name, or with your business' name and information.


Edible Gifts


For the food gift intended for your client's office and staff, select something easily shared, such as a candy gift basket or fruit basket. An assortment of cheeses, appetizers and snacks is a gift easily shared at an office party or open house. If the gift is just for the client, select something like a package of steaks, seafood or other uncooked meat item. If possible, send the gift directly to the client's home. Edible gift food packages might include coffee, tea, hot cocoa, cheeses, fruits, fruitcake, candy, sausage, cookies, beer or nuts. Many food gift companies offer corporate discounts and savings on bulk orders, and deliver. Food gifts come in boxes, baskets, tins and other decorative containers.


Gift Cards


Many businesses selling gift cards offer discounts for bulk orders. This allows you to pay less than the face value for the gift card. If you are a real estate agent giving a thank-you gift to a homebuyer, give a gift card for a home improvement store. For the sales representative giving a gift to an advertiser, give a gift certificate to a restaurant close to the advertiser's business, which they can use to buy lunch during the week. A gift card might be for a department store, restaurant or for entertainment, such as for a nearby amusement part or theatre.
