Everyone loves to be appreciated, and when that thanks is expressed with a gift, you’ll make extra points with the gift recipient. Corporate gifts are often thought of as expensive, one-of-a-kind executive style gifts that your company sends out at holidays, but there’s another level of corporate gift-giving that can mark you and your firm as a thoughtful, appreciative company with whom to do business.

There are literally dozens of opportunities for little thank yous in the course of doing business, and you can do it as cheaply as a few pence per item.

Choose a handful of various types of items that will your customers will find useful.

Some of the best items for this type of programme are plastic promotional pens, memo cubes, sticky notes, calculators and paper clips – consumables that will always be appreciated and used. Choose a few higher range gift items as well, for acknowledging especially big orders or special occasions.

Those inexpensive sticky notes imprinted with your company’s name on every single page offer multiple opportunities for exposure. The pad will sit on the recipient’s desk, reminding him or her of your company every time she makes a note. And every time one of those notes gets stuck to a memo, letter or communication, your business gets another set of eyes on your logo and message. That’s the kind of marketing that goes far beyond the value of the few pence each the pads cost – and the good will you generate by saying Thanks again! Is priceless.
