‘Tis The Season For Chocolate!
When it comes to gift-giving for your clients, vendors and partners, there are lots of things to consider. You never want to get too personal, and you certainly don’t want to inadvertently offend anyone. The whole point of giving a holiday gift is to say, “thanks for all you do throughout the year,” and you want to choose gifts that convey that sincere thanks, without crossing a line. At the same time, you want to give a gift that will be appreciated and used.
Enter chocolate.
Chocolate is recognized by people around the globe as a token of appreciation. Here are a few good reasons why, if you’re still shopping for corporate gifts, chocolate should be at the top of your list.
Chocolate is Universally Appropriate
When you give the gift of chocolate, you know that it has the power to delight the recipient. Fully grown, mature adults get giddy when they open a package and find a delicious chocolatey treat inside. Eating an indulgent snack is something everyone enjoys, even people who typically stick to a healthy diet. After all, this is the season for treating ourselves.
Chocolate is also virtually guaranteed not to offend, to be taken the wrong way or to be considered too personal a gift from a business colleague. You never have to ask, “is this gift appropriate” when giving chocolate.
Chocolate Opens Doors
Someone who walks into an office empty-handed may be welcome, but someone who walks in with chocolates to share gets the red-carpet treatment. Think about your own office environment. When people bring in delicious snacks, there is often a rush to the kitchen. People remember the guy or gal who showed up with something delicious that made their day.
Chocolate has the power to open doors to prospects and clients, and to keep those doors open in the future.
Chocolate Is Affordable Luxury
Let’s be honest. Price is a consideration when buying corporate gifts. You don’t want to look like a cheapskate, but you don’t want to blow your budget out of the water, either. Chocolate is an economical choice that can protect your company pocketbook without sacrificing luxury or quality.
Chocolate is the type of gift that is appreciated because it is unnecessary. Everybody needs things like pens. They are a nice gift, but at the end of the day, a plain stick pen works just as well as any other pen. Chocolate is a luxury that we don’t always afford, ourselves, which is why it is so welcome.
