10 Reasons Corporations Need Gift Baskets

by Tammie Allen

Corporations need gift baskets because gift giving should be a part of an ongoing, year long business strategy. To demonstrate good will should not be based on events and holidays alone. Buying gift baskets also revolves around these popular themes:

Thank You
After the closing of a sale or major deal, give a gift basket to say thank you.

Appreciation
For taking time out of their busy schedule to meet with you, send the prospect a gift basket as a token of your appreciation.

Apology
During a company's life, mix-ups, blunders and other errors will occur, express your regret with an apology gift basket.

Happy Birthday
Has a store sent you a birthday gift for making a purchase? A birthday gift basket is an effective way to stay in touch with everyone who has made a purchase.

Administrative Professionals Week
Acknowledge your Secretary, Administrative Assistant, and other support staff with a gift basket for their contribution in the work place.

Congratulations
Give a gift basket to a client after a major purchase or job promotion.

Happy New Year
To make your company stand out in a grand way, instead of sending a Happy Holidays gift, send a New Year's basket at the beginning of the year.

Condolences
Offer your sympathy and support to a client after bad news with a condolence gift basket.

Employee of the Month
To say job well done, to promote team work, and to generate on the job enthusiasm give a gift basket as an employee reward.

Milestones
Celebrate a colleague's retirement with a gourmet gift basket. Other milestones include surpassing sales goals and anniversaries.
