Your clients will love these unexpected treats, and they’ll often tell you how much it strengthens their loyalty to you. With over 15 years in the business, I’ve handed out hundreds of gifts and seen firsthand the positive impact they have. 🌟

Check out local suppliers for more great discounts. They will probably have bulk items on sale a month or two before Christmas!

Here are a few ideas:
Discount Cards
If you’re looking for a straightforward way to show appreciation, consider referral cards from Zazzle. I usually give my clients six cards: two for them to keep and four to share with friends.
No matter what you pick, I’m sure your clients will love them. Any gift you give them will increase their loyalty to you.

I want to start with a few things I always keep on hand. You may already have some of these, but most you can pick up in the city or order online if you are a one-stop shopper.
•A stack of business cards and discount cards. (See my post here for more about how to use business cards and where to get them from).
I always keep rolls of ribbon in my business colours handy. It’s a small investment that pays off big time in presentation and branding. This isn’t just for wrapping gifts. I use this branded ribbon to attach gift cards, enhance packaging, and so much more. It’s a simple yet effective way to make everything look more cohesive and professional.
Stickers with your logo and business info are more than just cute—they’re crucial for brand recognition. I used to get mine from Vistaprint, but guess what? I’ve found even better quality on Amazon. They’re a simple yet effective way to keep your brand front and center.
Cellophane bags in assorted sizes come in handy. You can fill these bags with gifts, candies, snack mix, gum, cookies or just about anything.
