Employee Morale Gifts from All The Buzz Gifts

Written by Shawn on August 17, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Do your employees deserve a morale boost?

These are difficult times, for sure. And, everyone is spending so much time alone and away from their colleagues and the office.

Have you seen our Home Worker’s Survival Kit, yet? (And we have them in small, medium and large and 3 different price points.)

We have created lots of employee morale gifts over the last 16 years. The 88 baskets we made in this black leatherette with the big yellow bows were for an accounting firm. Aren’t they super cheerful?

You will love these gifts on our blog from March 2020. Lots of smiley faces to go around. More employee morale gifts here.

We have also created lots of new hire gifts for some local tech companies. We love working with our corporate clients on retirement gifts, new hire gift, thank you gifts, and work from home survival kit thank you gifts! We have fun creating with our clients and love bringing their own employees lots of glee and joy.

We created this for one of our corporate clients who wanted to boost the morale of their employees who have been working from home the past 5 months. All of the zoom meetings get to be so overwhelming and never getting to see your colleagues in person can be demoralizing. These are strange times and the world is a little bit upside down. So, one of our clients sent the Work from Home Survival Kit to boost their team’s morale.

This kit has snacks, yo-yo, caramel corn, and vitamin c energize boost! New times require new, thoughtful gifts. And, this one is fun, especially for those new to working at home. It includes coffee, snacks, immunity boosters, earplugs, fun activities like jump rope, yo-yo, silly putty, playing cards, and chocolate aspirins. Personalization is available. (We can personalize with vinyl lettering, custom ribbon and it is just a small upcharge.)

At All The Buzz, we specialize in custom corporate gifts. If you have any ideas you would like to talk through, give me a call at 408-504-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com and we can brainstorm and spitball and come up with something extra special for your department and company.

We have a super cool machine that allows us to put vinyl lettering on gifts and baskets. A really fun idea for company logos – especially on the metal baskets and ceramic frames.

In case you live locally here in San Jose, you are always welcome to come out to our workshop in San Jose (by appointment) and you can always save on shipping by coming and pick up your gifts at our workshop. (Just to text us ahead of time to make sure we are there.) We have been making gift baskets here in Silicon Valley for over 16 years, so we have a pretty robust “beehive” workshop on San Felipe Road.

Check Out These Beauties We Personalized for a Client

Written by Shawn on June 13, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

Does your team need a thank you or a morale boost? Maybe you want to reward your team with a custom gift like these? We can make a basket specifically for you and exactly how you want them.

These are fully custom for a specific workgroup. There were about 14 of the team members we personalized these gifts for.

Their employer gave them “surprise” gifts from us. We made them specifically the way they designed them. Lots of input from their manager to make them extra special. We used their logo and their purple color – purple! We used our faux leather-bound tray and we put a custom label on the side of it to make it extra personal.

These were instead of the usual fancy year-end dinner. It was for a special teacher’s board this year, thanks to a certain virus! We hope they like all the customizing we added to really personalize!

You can see we make our baskets very uniform so everyone feels like we treated them with equal care and precision. We always want to make all of our clients feel extra special and pampered. When we make baskets, we have several people in the chain to make extra happy – the buyer and the receive.

We have made hundreds of personalized and custom gifts and gift baskets over the past 16 years. We have made gifts for property managers, nurses, medical departments, boutiques, wedding parties, car dealership employees, medical clinics full of employees, hotels, conventions, small independent businesses, realtors, and spas. You name it, we have made them. We can make them big or small and we welcome all budgets.

Sweet & Spicy? A Bay Area Favorite with a Little Spice and Sass

Written by Shawn on April 29, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

candied-jalapenos Do you know someone who is both sweet and spicy? Of course, you do! We have the perfect gift for them. We are pleased to share that we carry the candied jalapeno’s from a Bay Area local vendor, Sonya’s Sweet & Spicy.

You can also buy the sweet and spicy jalapenos directly from Sonya’s Sweet and Spicy website: SonyaSweetSpicy

Sonya is a local artist, podcaster, YouTuber, and also owns a business where she facilitates painting events called VinoPaint. 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!

We feel like her sweet and spicy candied jalapenos are a perfect fit for some of our sassy baskets. We include it in our Sweet & Spicy tote, which is only $95. We can add it to our other baskets if you would like us to customize something for your gift. Just call us at 408-504-3703 or email me at Shawn@AllTheBuzzGifts.com and we would love to make your fit more custom and extra special.

For about $35, you can also add a bottle of the Left Bend Winery red or white wine to this tote. Left Bend is a local tasting room and winery, in Los Gatos – not too far from our workshop in San Jose. It’s a beautiful tasting room with fantastic owners who are very welcoming and informative.

We do ship all of our baskets and gifts all over the U.S. and we typically ship our online orders within a few days of your ordering. If you have a lot of gifts to buy and ship, we can also put a quote together for you for larger orders and custom orders, too. For an extra $5, we can also add custom ribbon with names, logos, or business websites to the ribbon we create for your gift.

Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram so you can see our new products. We have a lot of fun with our business and we love for you to follow along! And, remember us when you need to send out a thank you gift to a client or an extra special birthday gift.

Gifts to Give Essential Workers, People on the Frontline, and your Favorite Nurses and Doctors

Written by Shawn on April 10, 2020. Posted in Buzz Blog.

essential-worker-gift — Superheroes Gift Bag

Superheroes are all around us these days. As the saying goes, not all superheroes wear capes. This pandemic and Covid19 has changed all of our lives in a matter of 4 weeks.

The frontline staff deserves all of our gratitude. They put in so many long hours, risking their own wellness and mental health for the rest of us. They deserve a special thank you gift!

Even Google got into the gratitude game and created a “Thank You To The Coronavirus Helpers” Google Doodle. Google thanked the janitors and custodial workers, who often get overlooked. Of course, they also thanked all of the nurses, doctors, and other supporting admin staff and all of the scientists who have been working tirelessly for the greater good.

There are lots of lists out there for ways to thank the people on the frontline so we thought we would create a list, too. We want to help you to show your gratitude to your US Mail Carrier, Your UPS or FedEx delivery people, the grocery checkers at your favorite grocery store and maybe even your Instacart delivery person. Whomever it is what you want to thank, we are certain we can come up with a fantastic gift for them.

We were searching around for blogs and articles about how to thank essential staff members and we found this helpful article from USA Today with “15 Gift To Give Essential Workers During the Coronavirus Epidemic.”

Be sure to also contact us about gifts for large groups of people or customized gifts. We have several hospitals that we work with and their staff has absolutely adored the gifts we made for their frontline staffers. We especially love making gifts for all of these heroes and sheroes. It fills our hearts when we know we are making all of our gift baskets, but there is an extra special feeling when we make these gifts. You can email us for quotes and for ways to customize your thank you gifts. (We can do custom ribbon with names and logos, for example.)

Creative Business Gifting Ideas for Corporate Clients

Written by Shawn on December 1, 2019. Posted in Buzz Blog, Silicon Valley Corporate Gifting.

Let’s talk about the “corporate gift”

Corporate gifts can be very lush and nice and some of them can be a bit silly, too. We have every type you can imagine – literally – because we can customize your corporate gifts to your client. If you have an extra special requirement, let’s talk by phone or you can fill out our form and send us more information about your business gifting needs. We would love to give you a free consultation by phone to go over the options. (Tel: 408-504-3703)

If you’re the “giver” of a corporate gift, how do you stand out above the rest and make sure you send your important clients something that is immediately used and appreciated. (And, not thrown in the recycler!)

Here at All The Buzz, we don’t just create and provide gifts, we endeavor to create fantastic and memorable gifts for you to give. For us, details matter.

Now let’s talk about the types of corporate gifts that leave our hive here in San Jose everyday.

Looking for “made in California” or Bay Area-themed gifts? We have it!

We pride ourselves on finding locally sourced products for our Bay Area and California based gift baskets. We have locally sourced honey, candles, chocolate truffles, lavender bath salts, caramel, popcorn, sweet and spicy jalapenos, and rice krispy treats all made by local artisans. These products are all tested here at the hive and we make sure that all of our products are fresh and are very high quality made by our local vendors. We love working with indie businesses and we love sharing their fabulous products with you. (Plus we love sampling them here in our workshop!)
