Trends For Corporate Holiday Gifts

By Dan Bir, Randd Associates Printing And Promotions, Inc.

It’s that time of year when many companies are thinking of what to give for holiday gifts. Why not give something that can also promote your business. There are thousands of things available that you can print a company logo, website and phone number on.

My company is already getting many calls about ideas for the holidays and the trend has been either some type of apparel or something tech related. Since it’s getting colder, a nice sweatshirt or jacket would be a great gift. Good quality polos or dress shirts are also well received. On the tech side, there are a wide range of items for about any type of budget. From USB flash drives in the $5 to $15 range all the way to drones with cameras from $35 to $130. Some other high-tech ideas are nice Bluetooth speakers, headphones, virtual reality headsets, selfie sticks and ear buds just to name a few.

Another trendy item is drinkware - a nice stainless steel tumbler or an aluminum bottle with a flip-top lid and straw for example. These are good for either the recipient’s vehicle or something to keep his or her drink hot or cold in the office. There are also infuse tumblers to flavor your water with any type of flavor you desire.

Don’t limit yourself when picking a corporate gift. There are literally hundreds of thousands of items available. Have your supplier of promotional products expert do the research for you. There are search programs they have available to put in any criteria and price ranges to help you come up with what might be that perfect - “Wow, this is great!” - gift.

No matter who you are giving these items to, you want to make an impression so they remember where they received it. They are great marketing tools that can promote your company for years. It’s always a good idea to give them something they will use and keep your name in front of them. Just tell your supplier what your budget might be and the quantity you need and they should be able to come up with many, many ideas for you to decide from.

Here is a list of other popular types of items that would make good corporate gifts: umbrellas, crystal glassware, calendars, journal books, chocolate and candy items, duffle bags or backpacks, ice scrapers, mouse pads, knit sock hats and caps or beanies, high quality metal ink pens, coolers and many, many, many more.
