What to gift your company employees this Halloween?

Giving away holiday gifts is a great way to thank your employees for the work ethic and hard work they put into making your company successful. Corporate gifts are also a great way to motivate and encourage employees who may have lost their way in the daily slog and do not always feel valued. Since Halloween is just around the corner, here are some gifts that should make this holiday special for all your workers:

Cookie gift baskets:

Fill up an attractive basket with a range of home-baked cookies. You can add in a variety of flavors such as cranberry, chocolate chip, peanut butter and oatmeal raisin. Snuggle the cookies over paper confetti to add volume to the container. You can either buy gift baskets from a craft store or place bulk orders with gift basket makers.

Spirits:

Fill up gift bags with wine or spirit miniatures that have customized labels. You can buy custom labels exhibiting your company's slogan and logo, and then stick them over the bottles. To add to the attractiveness of the gift, you can also add a box of chocolates. Offer a non-alcoholic drink as well such as juices in exotic flavors or sparkling apple cider for those who are not fond of hard drinks.

Company Halloween party: 

Host a fun Halloween party for all your employees. Thank them for all their hard work during the busy season. You can also give away souvenirs, depending on your budget. Halloween party giveaways can include baseball caps, company T-shirts, chocolates, candies, and much more.

Good night gift basket:

If you have the budget to go all out for your employees then a good night gift basket will be highly appreciated. Include a blanket, some nice sheets, and a robe. For personalization, you can add towels with your company’s imprint.

Breakfast gift basket:

After a night long celebration of Halloween, who wouldn’t like to indulge in a delicious late breakfast basket? Fill a basket with jars of jam and jelly, gourmet pancake mix, maple syrup and packs of ham or bacon. Add flavored teas and coffee to the container as well. You can also add apple or orange juice to make the meal complete.

Practical items:

Practical items such as, mint tins filled up with mints, aluminum water bottles, insulated travel mugs, luggage tags, and business card holders can come in very handy. Apart from these, sensible gifts such as ink pens, picture frames and paper weights are also appreciated as corporate gifts.

Creative items:

Grabbing your employee’s attention through gift items is a great idea. But tying the giveaways to your company's products or goals is even better. For instance, a bakery owner can giveaway cake recipes and baking tools in a gift basket, while a financial services provider can gift gold colored lucky charms as a Halloween present.

To “woo” your employees with a corporate Halloween gift basket or a bag, you need to have a big bag filled to the brim with great gifts. It is best to choose items that are creative and practical. If you gift something useful, like a pen or a bottle of wine or delicious edibles, your employees are more likely to make use of them and remember you while doing so.
