Survey Reveals Corporate Gifts Growing in Popularity with Clients and Employees
Survey reveals America's workforce (68 percent) would rather receive a great holiday gift than have an office party – an increase of 11 percent from 2016.
Whether you select a warm Columbia fleece 1/4 zip, a Woolrich blanket, or gourmet popcorn, this year ditch the hassle of an office party and reward your employees and clients with a thoughtful gift, personalized with your brand.
"Employee and client gifts are a rare opportunity for organizations to show recognition for employees and business partners with a thoughtful gift. Our survey shows those gifts are appreciated – and a better alternative to an office party," said Jake Solomon, CEO Threadfellows. "At Threadfellows, we curate a collection of world-class gifts and we customize them to match your organization's brand. The brands we partner with, brands like Columbia, Patagonia, TravisMathew, and Adidas, have earned a long-standing reputation for quality and prestige."
Seventy-four percent of survey respondents indicated a "reputation for quality" as their number one attribute for selecting a gift, followed by a "assortment of retail brands" at 51 percent. As leader in offering world class brands, Threadfellows meets all these demands with hundreds of top-notch gifts that can be personalized with a logo and are backed by the 'Expectations Guaranteed' return policy.
According to the survey, now until November Dec 8th is prime time for corporate gift shopping. Threadfellows is ready with everything from delicious Rural Route 1 Popcorn in a reusable holiday tin to new Patagonia and Columbia Sportswear fall styles. For items that can be personalized, look for blankets, backpacks, jackets, headwear, padfolios, portfolios, totes, drinkware, and even speakers.
