If you’re used to thinking of gift baskets as cheap woven containers of
semi-fresh fruit, you may be interested to discover just how creative
gift baskets have become. There’s something for everyone, and it’s not
even limited to food items.
FOR GOLFING FANATICS:
Got a client who loves to golf? Get him or her a golf-themed gift
basket. Most include some gourmet treats, perfect for snacking on the
green. But many of them also include great accessories, such as a
putting cup, club cleaner, tee, ball marker, towel or golf club brush.
The food may be gone by the end of the day, but the accessories will
stick around, and remind your business associate of you.
FOR GARDENERS:
Most gardener gift baskets have a bit of a feminine theme, but many are
neutral. Some include food, and most include accessories and tools like
gardening gloves, seed packets, gardening tools, hand and nail cream.
FOR SPA AND AROMATHERAPY ENTHUSIASTS:
You’ll find a terrific variety of spa, beauty and aromatherapy gift
baskets available. Go with a scent theme, or choose one that includes
soothing teas. Accessories can include such items as: wooden massager,
back scrubber or soft hand towel.
You can never go wrong with groumet food and drink gift baskets – not
with so many to choose from! If an elaborate, expensive champagne and
caviar basket is outside your budget, go for simple with Shari’s
Berries, or a single bottle of Dom Perignon with some chocolate dipped
apricot. These combinations are far more affordable, but speak just as
eloquently to your good taste, which people will want to associate
themselves with.
