It is that time of year when we will be thinking about what to send our beloved customers and suppliers as a thank you for the great work you have all done this year.
Rather than sending the traditional Christmas card with all the usual awaked discussions about should you say season’s greetings or happy Christmas my idea is that you do something completely different and send an eco-gift instead?
Here are a couple of ideas that may inspire you to go for this year. My first suggestion is a “plant a tree gift” from www.oxtreegen.com not only do they make it simple they have a wide range of corporate carbon offset gift ideas. You can pay for a single tree to be planted or a 4×4 to be offset with more trees planting. It’s not that expensive either and very simple you or your customers can have the tree planted for you. What’s more there is a simple carbon calculation for you to use.
Another great company is www.ec-ecogifts.co.uk where you can buy anything from a water powered calculator to a bamboo USB drive. They have loads of novelty gift ideas as well as some everyday products with a green theme.
So with these ideas in mind why don’t you decide to stand out from the crowd and do something unusual and exciting? Believe me your customers will remember it for all the right reasons.
