©Copyright Protected Gifting ideas for corporations come in many numerous ways. Many corporations tend to be generic in their gifting practices and spend little time in selecting just the right gift to fit either their employees or corporate clients. A simple purchase of a large quantity suits both their wallet and their time allotment. Smaller companies may not offer the larger price tag items but more thought and personalization tend to outweigh the generic gift. What are the new and fresh ideas? What is old and boring? What do my employees really want? How do I really convey my appreciation to both my employees and my much valued corporate clients? Depending on whom you talk to or where you read it there are several ideas out there that are solid hits. As amusing as it would seem depending on the gift is the perception that it is the best! Let's take a look at the more popular corporate gifting ideas of today. In a recent survey by American Express it was revealed that food related items are leading the corporate gifting today. Gone are the flowers and gift cards that have been so popular in years past. Now it is the appeal of gourmet foods that allows corporations to stand out and find those custom gifts that invoke positive feelings and a sense of bonding in recipients. Trying to regain their lead from years past from the universal gift cards, American Express has announced enhancements to its corporate gift card services. Wanting to step up their interest in the Corporate Gifting department they have cleared the way for easy online ordering for those busy companies not wanting to spend a lot of time finding just the perfect gift for their employees or corporate clients. Stephen Pazyra, CEO of 1-800-Bakery.com notes "There's something personal about food that flowers and gift cards can't deliver." The responses they hear from their clients are always, “The recipients were amazed" and “We got a terrific response." He believes a big part of the appeal is the thoughtfulness that these corporate gifts convey." Pazyra goes on to say that “gifts from a corporate office can create a strong association between the company brand and a positive feeling. Experts say that a corporate gift idea is always better when it is personalized…" Food gifts are delicious and gift baskets are filled with them. A gift basket is a gift that says you took the time to shop around and find a gift that is just perfect for your employees or corporate clientele. They can be designed to fill the needs of one, a family or the corporate office. Filled with meats, cheeses, crackers and finger foods there is sure to be something inside for everyone. A gift basket can also make your company stand out in a room full of gifts. Bisket Baskets And More's corporate gift baskets have been solely responsible for impromptu raffles to see who takes home the container and mad dashes for the break room to have a peek inside. With a gift basket, you're offering your corporate clients the opportunity to enjoy your gift as soon as it is delivered. With the ability to personalize your gift it crosses the barriers of both personal and corporate. Gift baskets are one of the most delicious choices for getting your company recognized and appreciated by both your clients and your employees. Derek Gerry of 1-800-Bakery concludes that “staying within a budget is also a major concern but value is just as important. “If you're looking to stand out or if you're looking for a higher response rate from your recipients, you need to consider the power of food."
