Here is a holiday gift checklist for you to use.
Answer these questions to help you get directions on what you want to buy for your clients.
- What do you want to give as a thank you gift?
- Determine your budget?
- Determine where you are going to buy these items.
- When do you want to purchase the items?
- When do you want to give them the item?
Planning a mailing list to send out holiday cards?
If you like to send holiday cards, here are some tips to make the process more seamless.
- Create a mailing list in November before Thanksgiving.
- Recheck the list and ensure all your past and present clients are on it.
- Make labels around the 2 weeks of December.
- Mail out by the 3rd week in December.
It’s not worth sending them if you wait until the last minute. Many people go on vacation between Christmas and New Year’s Day, and they probably won’t get it until the new year if you send it after the 2nd week.
Whichever you decide to do, be sure you write a small note of thanks so they know that you appreciate them. Below I shared some additional gift ideas for clients and coworkers from Amazon(affiliate).
