No Cost, High Impact Gift Ideas (Part 1)

If you're like me, you realize that the best gifts don't always cost the most money.  You also don't have a lot of time (or money) to go around.  So this December, I'm focusing my blog on sharing ways you can create a big impact for everyone on your list without spending tons of money.  In Part 1-3 of our series, I'll focus on your business associates.  Then in Part 4, I'll focus on your family and friends.  

If  you have a large budget and are looking to provide something meaningful and unique for your business associates, you should contact my friend Laura DeRousse of TB Corporate Gifts & Events.  Laura does an amazing job helping people find that special gift for their clients and can work within your budget to find that perfect item.

If  you're budget is like mine this holiday season and you're looking for a no cost gift idea for your business associates, why not provide them with a referral?  Didn't expect me to say that, did you? Think about it. How many business associates on your list do you think do amazing things?  Why not tell others about them?  I've shared one example of a way to give a referral above when I told you about my friend Laura's company. 

Take a look at people on your list and think about who you could refer them to.  There is a variety of ways you can do the actual referral including:
  • An e-introduction.....email each of them and tell them about the other person and why you think they should meet.
  • Share something they have posted on Facebook that you think would be valuable to those you know. (or on LinkedIn or Twitter or any other social media platform you or they use often)
  • Create a separate Facebook post telling your friends and followers about them.  Be sure to tag them in so that they see what you shared.
  • While making small talk at holiday parties, think of the people you know that the person may love to meet and tell them.  Follow up by letting the other person know and telling them that someone may reach out. Even if they never do, the person knows you were spreading good will about them and their business.    
So, there you go.  A gift that costs no money and adds value to your business associates.  The best part is that it's a win-win because both people  now think highly of  you for thinking of  others! ​


Looking for other ways to be strategic in your business?  Be sure to check out my book Be Strategic, Be Intentional, Be Successful. For a limited time it's only $20 and includes a Group Q&A Call where you can get your questions answered and learn from the questions of others.

    Why Morsels? 

    Business advice,
    like chocolate chips,
    is best digested
    a handful of morsels at a time.  I think we'd all agree that devouring a lot of either all at once can be too much for the average person to handle..
