TM Edit: 11 Christmas Gift Ideas To Thank Your Customers In Style

Christmas is coming! With a matter of weeks to go until the big day, now's the ideal time to consider how, exactly, you're going to thank your customers and colleagues for another year of loyalty to your brand. 

Whether you're after impressive giveaways you can present to guests at a festive corporate event or want luxurious gifts to hand over to your most valuable clients, 'tis the season to make an impression. And what better way to do it than with fabulous gifts adorned with your company logo?

Why Are Corporate Gifts So Important At Christmas Time?

According to research shared by luxury food and drink provider Cartwright & Butler, 95% of UK businesses see corporate gifting as an essential part of their marketing strategy, with personalisation the key factor. Interestingly, it's not just current customers that can benefit from receiving corporate Christmas gifts; rather, they can prove invaluable in securing new business, too.

Almost a quarter (24%) of the people asked revealed that they regularly use corporate gifting as a means to capture the attention of prospective customers, with a further 25% admitting it was a key part of their acquisition strategy. 

Interestingly, the spend on customers (whether existing or potential) is typically more than the spend on gifts for colleagues, with the latter value sitting at almost a third of the amount forked out for customers. 

The same research also revealed the products that are most desirable for customers: namely, food, drink, tech and stationery.
