I love the holidays, but I always hit a problem this time of year determing what to send to clients for gifts. Must be a "guy" thing, sorry.
I have approximately 50 gifts I need to send out to high profile clients (CEO's, business owners, etc.), and would like some input on what would be a good idea.
Parameters:
(1) Must be reasonable in costs
(2) Must be able to be printed with my company logo
(3) Must be highly visible to others in addition to the recipient
(4) Won't be taken home, will remain at the office
(5) Can fit in a standard USPS Priority Mail box
(6) Same item can be used for all clients
(7) Must be respective of the clients' high-level position
Ideas? Thanks.
(Sorry about the category choice, wasn't sure where to put this)

Clients are located in many locations throughout the USA. Not just my location.

Well, depends on if you want this to be a serious gift or a fun gift.
Serious/professional: Zagat Guide (book with top ratings of restaurant in your city), small desk clockw/logo, nice letter opener w/logo
Funny: mini basketball w/logo (execs love to bounce a ball while in long phone calls), some type of puzzle, anything fun you might want around your computer where you can fidget with it...while on a call.

What about thermal mugs. Most employees take cups from home to the office to drink from. My husband does this all the time and constantly forgets to bring them home. We must go through a cup (of some sort) weekly.
They would meet all of your requirements.
1. Reasonable in cost
2. Company logo could be printed on them
3. All recipients would carry them around for others to see.
4. Like my husband, most recipients would keep them with them at work to have something handy to drink from.
5. Would probably fit in a standard USPS Priority Mail box
6. A thermal mug is universal in its gift giving abilities.
7. Even high-level people need a cup to drink their daily beverages from.
I hope this helps. Good luck.

How about some type of candy dish. I know that doesn't really fit #7, but they would probably put it at the reception desk anyway. I betcha some company will sell you a dish that can be personalized with your logo. In fact, I received one from one of my vendors several years ago. It is the type that stands tall and has a lid with rubber stopper (like is used for candles nowadays), and their logo was printed on the front of the glass.
If you visit your customer occasionally, you can take a new bag of candy for them to add to the dish.

How about a nice umbrella? I got one a few years ago that I carry everywhere. I have had a few comments on both the quality & the logo printed on it.
OR, a golf towel. Every golfer LOVES them & those will be seen by people they consider friends, business "partners" etc.
This is a hard question!

You could have small fruit baskets or flowers delivered or just send them a card wishing them a Merry Christmas.
