New Year’s is a Great Time to Reward Your Employees or Clients

Written by Shawn on November 8, 2021. Posted in Buzz Blog, Silicon Valley Corporate Gifting.

Reward Your Clients & Employees

We have been planning (and kinda hoarding) inventory for this Q4 intensity that we know is coming. We have all been hearing about the supply chain issues for months now. We even rented a storage pod to help us squirrel away stuff. We really hate to let our clients down, but there is most likely going to be one or two disappointed clients this year….. which leads us to this article.

The supply chain issues have also created shipping delays – so that means after we turn it over to UPS, FedEx, or the USPS – we will not be able to guarantee on-time delivery this season. So please get your orders in now!

But, we also have other ideas and some magic we can make happen for you. What if you considered the idea of a New Year gift? If you are looking for a way to show your employees your appreciation for the great 2021 you had? Or, maybe you want them to kick off 2022 with exciting new energy and get them off on the right foot? This is a great way to reward your employees and clients.

Employer Holiday Traditions

Before Christmas became the most popular gift-giving holiday, New Year’s was the day to treat your friends, family, and leaders with gifts. In the tradition of good wishes and embarking on a fresh new year, most gifts symbolize wealth, prosperity, fertility, or luck. From ancient times to today, New Year’s is a time to convey your hopes for a prosperous year with a token of affection.

Our All The Buzz Gifts are curated by our in-house team of experts and include only unique items that will delight every recipient on any occasion! From personalized photo canvases and custom mugs for family members who love coffee, thoughtful wall art prints and home decor pieces for friends moving into new homes, or even fun office supplies like desk organizers and paper trays for work colleagues; we’ve got you covered! We make gifting easy with our popular Instagram printables collection which includes trendy signs, quote posters, calendars & more!

The holiday season is over and you still have employees who need to be thanked for their hard work.

You can’t afford to let your employees go without a thank you gift, especially if they are part of the team that made this year’s sales possible.

Solution: All the Buzz Gifts have got your back! Whether it’s just one employee or an entire department, we’ve got something for everyone! We also offer new hire gifts so that all new hires feel welcomed into the company culture. Check out this New Hire gift we have created for Intuit. We included this one because we wanted to give you some inspiration for your corporate gifting. We make this for them and ship them directly to their new employees, but this could easily be turned into a custom Happy New Year or Thank You gift basket. We can put your company name or a message on the bucket and the ribbon.

We will add a bunch more examples at the bottom. And, we could LOVE to talk with you about ideas that we can ship out after Christmas. Take the pressure off of you. Enjoy your holiday and let’s get them out to your employees, clients, reps, or your staff in the New Year. Email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com (You can even send me a spreadsheet with your recipients’ names and addresses and we can take it from there.)

It’s been a long year and you want to get your friends, family, clients, and employees something special for the New Year.

We can make gift baskets and gift boxes for pretty much any budget. $25 to $250 is the typical range. So, we can do small or more luxurious baskets. We have lots of ideas for you. Check out this blog article for a bunch of custom corporate gift baskets we have made in the past. We can even make a “California” themed gift box and include one of your custom Yeti water bottles, tumbler, coffee mug, umbrella, note pad, or post-its. We can also make custom etched wooden cutting boards and a whole bunch more fun goodies. We also carry lots of “born in California” products which can help to personalize your gifts. We have honey from Bloom Honey, sweet and spicy jalapenos from Sonya’s Sweet & Spicy, locally made chocolate truffles, caramel popcorn and so much more. Just email us and we can gift you a list of all of our products Made in California.

Here are some more of our recent custom gifts that will hopefully give you some inspiration so we can be sure your friends, family, clients, and employees feel valued and feel lots of gratitude from you.

Thanksgiving Gift Baskets for Employees

Employee Thanksgiving Gifts

Just because we might not all be around to show thanks together doesn’t mean we should stop showing thanks! Your employees, now more than ever, are likely craving recognition, interaction, and appreciation. We can help and make it a simple process for you. We can even ship each of your employee’s gifts to their home if they are in the U.S.

We have heard that here in Silicon Valley, in 2022, lots of companies were thanking their employees via a Zoom call or a Slack channel. And, we have heard some local companies giving employees an extra few hours off and taking them for a long lunch as a thank-you gift. But, in 2023, lots of employees are back to work 3 days or more and are ready to be clearly appreciated.

But, let’s face it, this 2023 is really trying all of our nerves, right? Covid is making a come back and we have a new vaccine coming. We have just the solution.

Customized and Personalized Gift Baskets for Your Employee

We can personalize all of our gift baskets and gift boxes. (Yes, with their name or your logo – or both.) Of course, there is a small extra fee, but we can use vinyl lettering or make custom ribbons for your gift. We can also make big custom coffee mugs, water bottles, and lots of other fun items. Our technology allows us to add their name or your company name to lots of surfaces and products. (The below gift is an item we created for the local Silicon Valley YWCA. Fall & Thanksgiving Gift Baskets.

You likely know this already, but the earlier you order the better. Lots of supply chain issues and lots of delays from the big shipping companies. So get your orders in a.s.a.p. Give us a call and we can brainstorm and come up with a gift for your employees. We have so many more ideas and items than we can really show on our website. The possibilities are almost endless. I will share more of our custom items below to give you some inspiration. Call or text me at 408-504-3706

We call the above gift box our “Fall Favorites” but it is so easily customizable and personalized! $65 plus shipping.

This “Customize Me” gift box is super customized – the box, the post-it notes. Everyone LOVES this gift.

Customize Me Gift Boxes and Gift Baskets

Written by Shawn on April 18, 2021. Posted in Buzz Blog.

customize-me-gifts Did you know that the majority of our gifts are customized and personalized? It’s true. Most of our business comes from corporate customers who want to personalize bulk gifts for their employees. (Employee Morale, Onboarding and New Hire gifts, Employee Retirement gifts, Corporate Anniversary gifts, employee birthday gifts, and of course, holiday gifts.)

Here at All The Buzz Gifts, about 30% of our clients buy a special gift from our website and we handwrite their card message, but there is very little customizing. We adore both types of customers and it’s always our goal to give both types of clients beautiful gift baskets and to give everyone V.I.P customer service. We are family-own and family-run and have been doing this since 2004 – our good name is on the line if we don’t. You can read our YELP reviews, here.

We just launched this Customize Me gift in mid-April, but we hope this is just the beginning of a lot of amazing gifts. We plan to create one of these “customize me” style

We survived the holidays and the new year. Now we prepare for 2021 and prep for Valentine’s Day. Plus we have to think of our corporate clients who have us help with their New Hires, Onboarding, and Valentine’s Gift that our Realtors love to give to their clients. So, no rest for the weary!

My employees Jessica and Ella are working hard in the beehive to prepare us for the new year. I had them take a few pictures of the work and clean up that they are working on. As you can see, it’s time for us to re-order and re-stock the shelves. This is just a small percentage of our beehive warehouse. We have lots more wire shelves and prep area, office and shipping area, too.

Corporate Gratitude Gifts | Employee Appreciation Gifts from All The Buzz

Written by Shawn on September 27, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Gratitude Gifts for Corporations

We had so much fun creating this Gratitude Gift for our corporate client Annual Reviews in Palo Alto. Like us, they are a Bay Area company and we love working with them! (We have a little insider friend there, too. Thank you, Lu!)

Their company had a virtual Employee Appreciation online, so we shipped these to each of the employees individually. We put in a note into the gift box filled with goodies and asked them not to open it until they could all open them together, virtually. So, when the time came at 10:30 they opened them all together and raised a toast to each other.

We had all kinds of goodies in the gift box, including stemless champagne glasses with their company logo. We added some sparkling apple cider for them to sip and toast with. We also included some yummy tapenade, crackers, Mediterranean dried apricots, chocolate chip cookies, caramels, almonds, and other delicious snacks.

When is the last time you worked for a boss that made sure you know you were appreciated? This seems like a great place to work. Gratitude sure goes a long way towards employee goodwill and great employee morale.
