Corporate Birthday Gifts for Your Employees

Written by Shawn on July 12, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

We do a lot of corporate gifting and one of our favorite programs is when our clients want us to ship their employees’ birthday presents. We also do Birthday or Anniversary Gifts for Your Employees.

Since 2004 we have had all kinds of fun requests! Some companies choose a theme for the entire year. Other companies send a more personalized gift for their employee to arrive at the employee’s home the week of the employee’s birthday.

We also have a New Hire/Onboarding Gift Program.

Birthday Basket Program for Employers

We even have some that do one big huge birthday MONTH gift basket to the entire company for all of that month’s birthday celebrants. When are only doing the “12 per year” for a corporate client, we end up going with a theme for each month. (With HR’s approval, of course.)

Most of our corporate customers, send us a spreadsheet at the beginning of the year so we can do some planning and forecasting. Then the HR or other department follows up with us at the beginning of each month to confirm the recipient’s name and current address.

Then They Leave the Rest Up To Us!

Once the company gives us the budget for the basket, we get started. Of course, we always have to remember the shipping charges. Most of our baskets ship for about $16 per boxed-up gift basket. We like to use USPS for home deliveries when we can. Occasionally it is more affordable to use UPS. We do ship all over the U.S. and the Bay Area, of course. If the person’s home address is within 10 miles of our beehive/workshop on San Felipe Road in San Jose, we can also do a personal delivery.

We can also do one or two specific baskets for all of the recipients. Typically, that requires some consulting and a short phone or Zoom meeting at the beginning of the new year to get the “standard” basket designed and then we create that basket for that company each time one of their employees has a birthday. Some companies prefer that their employees all get the same gift all year long so no one feels slighted or favored. As you can probably tell, we can work your own company’s birthday program any way it works for your business. We are here to make the task easy and convenient for your company.

Birthday Gifts: Unique Birthday Present Ideas

Written by Shawn on June 26, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Birthday-gifts-for-friends Did you know there are more birthdays in September than any other month? Fascinating article about September birthdays from Business Insider:

More babies are born in early September because couples have an easier time conceiving around Christmas time. A recent study found that the winter season holds biological perks for pregnancy. The tendency to “hook up” during the holidays also likely explains the peak in wintertime conceptions.

We have some great ideas for your friends and family.

Coffee or Tea Lover in Your Friends Group? We have this great leatherette gift basket filled with honey, coffee, tea, pretzels, chocolate spoons, granola, pocket latte, and other goodies. Buy Here : $90
Is one of your friends focused on their health? How about our Healthy Options gift basket for $90? Market basket is filled with healthier treat options including salmon, crisps, tapenade, yogurt pretzels, veggie chips, fruit chips, and a variety of nuts, seed & nut bars. Personalize plaque or ribbon for a small charge. More info to buy it here. Buy Here : $90
Is your bestie or sister about to turn 50 or 60 or having some other kind of special birthday? What if you emailed all of her favorite people and asked them for a photo and ask them to send it to you so you can make a collage and set up a Zoom of a Facebook Live Surprise Party for their special birthday?
Stop by the liquor store (they are still essential, after all) and buy a great bottle of tequila, some limes, salt, and some scratchers and drop it off on your besties porch. Maybe they will share the winnings with you!
What is your friend’s favorite color? We can customize a basket together for you based on their favorite color, their favorite sports team, or their favorite hobby. We have a way to make a custom ribbon and have hundreds of colors. ($5 fee.) We can also personalize a gift like this one we did for a new Dad with his baby’s name on it with a vinyl cling. Check out the basket for the Dad of baby “Wyatt.” ($10 fee).

6. You can always make a hand-made custom gift certificate for your friend or family member. It is very difficult to get your car washed and your yard mowed during this Shelper In Place. It is also tricky to get your house cleaned – and what a great gift. You can offer to cook a meal or clean the cupboard for a friend as a very personalized homemade gift card. Of course, wear your masks and stay 6 to 10′ away from your friends so everyone stays healthy.

7. Bake your special person a homemade cake, cookies, or a lasagna! Everyone loves home-cooked goodies.

Her candied jalapenos are her new “foodie” business and they are delicious! During this Shelter In Place, she is also offering Virtual Paint Parties via Zoom. There is nothing this woman can’t do!

Admin Day 2020 : April 22nd – How Do You Thank Your Admin During a Pandemic?

Written by Shawn on April 15, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog, Silicon Valley Corporate Gifting.

Administration Professional’s Day is Wednesday, April 22nd this year, but this global pandemic gives us a new challenge of showing gratitude. More than likely, you and your admin are not working under the same roof these days, right? So, we have a few solutions for you.

We can help you look as smart and as efficient as your executive admin makes you look. We have lots of perfect gifts and most likely have a beautiful basket that your assistant will adore.

The basket in our featured image here includes wine from a local winery and tasting room called Left Bend. (And in includes this local vineyard’s best and lovely accompaniments.) Brie, crackers, Cabernet Sauvignon and other delicious goodies. The picnic-style basket is reusable and will last for years and years. For an extra $5, we can include a custom ribbon with their name or your company logo.

Do you overwork your admin? Does he or she deserve to be pampered and treated like the royalty they are? We have another gift that is perfect for your executive admin and we call it “Bee Luxurious” and it will definitely show how much you appreciate their patience, skills and the professionalism and resourcefulness they bring to the table.
