It’s the end of the year, and along with the holidays, we usher in a season of gratitude. Here at Fig Industries, we value our amazing local and national clients and enjoy showing our appreciation for their continued partnership. These important relationships are the spark that fuels our fire and allows us to use our talents to make a difference in our community.
Although most people love receiving a gift, business professionals and clients have received their fair share of them throughout their careers. That’s why creating a positive touch point requires some creativity to craft something unique and memorable. Carving out time for a little extra inspiration can go a long way when it comes to thank you gifts—and it’s a great way to communicate more about your brand identity as you do it.
TAKEAWAY #1: Use your year-end gift as a brand impression.
From customers to vendors to partners, these special folks are the people we interact with countless times throughout the year. So how do we show we care in a professional and heartfelt manner? Figuring out what your client may need or enjoy is a great way to make their lives easier or more fun—and keep you top of mind. We suggest staying away from anything too personal, but don’t make it impersonal. How about something fun for their desk, coffee table, or kitchen?
As a creative studio, we like to create something unique that shows off our talents, weaving in our core values to show who we are as a company as well as incorporating services we offer like illustration and package design.
TAKEAWAY #2: Go for original and make it heartfelt.
Showing your appreciation doesn’t need to be expensive—it just needs to show you care. And nothing says ‘thank you better’ than a heartfelt gift from your hometown. After two decades of creative client gifts, we are passionate about ditching the big box mail-order gift companies and showing support for neighbors by using your corporate gifting budget at a local business. Even when crafting something in-studio, we like to work with local vendors to execute our, keeping dollars in our local community.
TAKEAWAY #3: Local is always best.
