Holidays are the great time to let those close to you know that you care – including your employees. A simple holiday goody is a great way to let them know you appreciate their work. Better still, giving well-made promotional gifts is an perfect way to accent holiday parties and give party-goers something unique and useful for the holiday season.
We like to ensure the holiday season is done right. We have a few great wholesale promotional products in mind if you want to treat your hardworking employees to something special for this time of year.
The good news is you don’t need to spend so much money to pamper your employees for the holidays. If you are in a pinch or need to keep costs down, think about promotional gifts you’d normally reserve for expos or client care packages. Simple, cheap gifts are easy to bundle to give employees a small care package of their own.
The trick is to mix things up with the package. Water bottles, T-shirts, hats, notepads, pens and other small things grouped together can make the good care package with the right pairings. Make one or two bundles themed around the holidays or your business if you have many employees. For smaller businesses or holiday parties, personalize the gift package with items you know each employee will enjoy.
Branded custom blankets and sweatshirts, for instance, offer plenty of warmth and make great individualized gifts. Apart from the company logo, you can add some personalized details without spending too much extra.
The leather sleeve also is a great place for custom branding or additional content to make the employee’s gift unique and personal to them. Drinkware is an especially popular option during the colder months when people reach for their favorite blends of tea, coffee, cider or hot chocolate to warm up.
Like care packages, approach food as a bundled or assorted gift. A little bit of variety goes a long way, particularly if you have no idea of the personal tastes of your employees.
To really jazz up your employees’ holiday experience, add a little electricity into the mix. Employees often find high tech promotional gifts to be more useful and appreciated more than a traditional gift. It’s not as expensive as you suppose – you don’t have to get everyone a new smartphone or tablet to give some great tech gifts.
Want to keep costs low on tech gifts? Computer cases and travel bags are less expensive than smart devices but offer much value to your employees. A good laptop case, for example, adds some personalized style and protection to the device during travel or everyday use.
It doesn’t take so much to spread the caring mood of the holiday season to your employees. Whether you keep it simple or go all out, custom promotional gifts are great for office parties and events during this season.
