You can tell that the holidays are drawing near when everything starts getting a bit frenzied. With annual reports and performance reviews closing in, it's hard enough to focus on your personal holiday shopping, let alone worry about how to handle your company's corporate holiday gift program.
To save yourself the time and headache of trying to figure out how to buy the perfect present for everyone in the office you may be tempted to simply split up the available budget and tack a holiday bonus onto each employee's paycheck. This is certainly a simple solution, but countless studies and surveys prove that holiday bonuses often become an expected and unmemorable addition to the year end's paycheck. Those employees that even notice the addition probably grumble about how much of their holiday gift had to be shared with Uncle Sam. Although it is the season for giving, handing over half of your hard earned and well deserved gift doesn't usually spread goodwill and holiday cheer.
Since holiday gifts are supposed to show your employees just how much you appreciate their hard work and contributions to the company (within a budget of course) you probably want to make sure you're giving out unique and creative employee gifts that will ensure everyone remembers your generosity and appreciation each time they use their gift.
A simple one-stop solution to your corporate holiday gift giving dilemma is to utilize a holiday gift program in which each employee may select the brand name lifestyle merchandise of their choice. Employees are able to browse and select from only the offerings in the price collection assigned to them, so you'll have no trouble sticking to your budget and everyone will appreciate the wide variety of top-quality items available to choose from.
Not only does this solution ensure that everyone in your company receives a memorable and unique corporate holiday gift, it also fits in perfectly with holiday business parties or award ceremonies. Add a customized presentation packet displaying your company logo and personalized with each employee's name for a more formal event or have your employees select their items early in order to hand out the gifts in public at the holiday party.
Incorporating a presentation of the gifts into a company-wide event not only involves everyone in the celebration, but also adds to the company's overall morale and ensures that your corporate holiday gift program is a success every time.
