Relevance of Gifting During Christmas

Long awaited Christmas is finally round the corner and everyone is eagerly waiting to be treated with gifts and surprises from their friends and family. Christmas is all about giving; It is a great time to bond. For long, gift giving on Christmas has become a norm and we follow it with joy and exhilaration as it is a time of happiness and cheerfulness for everyone, but do we know where and why this tradition of giving started, why giving holds so much of relevance on Christmas?

 As known to everyone Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus as Christmas every year, but the lesser known fact is that when Jesus was born, he was treated with gifts by 3 wise men- Frankincense, Gold and Myrrh. As per Christian belief, these three gifts symbolized Jesus life. Frankincense, a perfume used in Jewish worship, depicted that people would worship Jesus, Gold was associated with Kings and according to Christians; Jesus is the King of Kings, Myrrh was a perfume that was put on dead bodies depicted that Jesus would suffer and die. Each of the gifts was reflection of Jesus’s life and relates to some part of his existence from his birth till the time he was crucified.

During the 2nd Century, this tradition was further taken forward by Saint called Saint Nicholas. St. Nicholas was considered to be a Nobel man, who had a special affection towards poor children. Legends has it that St. Nicholas used to present gifts to less fortunate kids during this month, this noble gesture earned him the name ’Santa Claus’. Since then, small children have heard stories and believe that Santa Claus would come and treat them with gifts every Christmas. So to keep the belief and the magic of the festival alive, the young ones in the family tie socks and stockings on X-MAS tree hoping that Santa would come on Christmas night and drop a gift in that stocking or just keep the gift under the X-MAS tree. The friends and family members become that ‘Secret Santa’, buy gifts and secretly keep them under the Christmas tree, writing name of person for whom the gift is bought.

In good old days perfume and gold coins were passed on as a token of love and affection. Perfume was to spread the goodness of Jesus and gold was meant for prosperity. Over the time the concept of gifting has transformed with so many gift ideas in place. There are so many things one can present as an ideal gift to his or her loved ones to make them happy.

The Crème de la Crème of Corporate Gifts

Corporategift giving is serious business. As part of a well-considered program, it can help establish or enhance critical relationships and become a cost-effective means of recognizing activities that benefit the business. It is dismal to know how much money and energy is wasted on gifts that go unnoticed, unused, or are simply discarded altogether.

What a lot of corporate managers fail to grasp is that greeting cards are nothing more than marketing campaigns disguised in brightly colored envelopes and glitter. It allows you to stay on top of the client’s mind in a positive way. It shows your appreciation for them, and allows you to connect on a personal level by showing that you know what they’re passionate about.

Here are some of the main categories in Corporate Gifting:

1)    Personal:   This is the kind of gift that you would give to clients that you know on a personal basis. This could also be the gift for clients that you would like to improve relations with. You would need to know some level of basic personal interests and gift an item that would help them live out their passion.

2)    Inspirational:   a work of art, framed posters or mugs with motivational quotes, something that would help your client do better at work. Books are a thoughtful way to show your coworkers, boss, or customers that you care.

3)    Useful:  The ultimate advantage in any business is art of getting to know people. Connect well and find out what your clients passions are. For tech-savvy clients, you could gift whimsical USB drives, phone covers etc. For the quintessential music lover you could always go with a pair of earphones. There are inexpensive gifts like handcrafted, personalized bottle openers, mug holders, phone stands etc.

4)    Local /Regional:  Often we are faced with situations where the client is visiting your city, state or country for the first time. In such cases, a gift that’s unique from your locality or a memorabilia from their visit would make for ideal gifts. Often corporate managers gift sweets or local bonne bouche which is appreciated but is momentary. Sweets would, however, act as great add-ons to your actual present.

If you're tasked with finding the perfect holiday gifts for your business clients, you know it's not that difficult to achieve that perfect mix of thoughtful, unique and affordable. Always remember that a successful gift will elicit warm and happy thoughts about you, your business and how you’ve served the client over time.Check sendmygift.com for more corporate gifting options.
