Last-minute gifts your clients will love

Gifts that don’t cut corners.

Branded Drinkware can be great gifts.

We’ve all been there. The holidays creep up, there are deadlines to meet, office parties to organize, and suddenly, you’re scrambling to find gifts for your clients that don’t scream “last-minute panic buy.”

Here’s the good news: it’s still possible to create corporate gifts that feel thoughtful, personal, and polished—even when time isn’t on your side.

Customizable gifts go that extra mile

Opting for something custom makes it look like you’ve put a lot of thought and time into choosing that gift for your client. Adding a simple touch like your logo, a handwritten note, or picking colors and designs that match your client’s style can make the gift feel personal.

Custom gifts aren’t just thoughtful—they’re strategic. They reflect your brand’s personality, values, and commitment to quality. More importantly, they show that you value the relationship during the holidays and beyond.

Practical gifts can have the biggest impact

If you’re tight on time, choosing practical gifts can simplify decision making and ensure your gesture is well-received. They respect your clients’ time and space by offering something they’ll use, rather than cluttering their desks or leaving them feeling guilty about tossing it away. 

Here are some ideas for practical, customizable gifts that your clients will love:

  • Water Bottles: Ideal for clients on the go, promoting sustainability and health while keeping your brand front and center with every sip.
  • Notepads: An everyday staple, perfect for jotting down ideas, taking meeting notes, or staying organized.
  • Tape Bound Notebooks: Elevate daily planning with a sleek, professional look. It’s a great last-minute gift for clients who value style and functionality in their work tools.
  • Twist Pens: A modern take on a classic, its fun design makes it something your clients will enjoy using again and again.

Make last-minute gifts feel personal 

Greeting cards.

Adding a personal touch to your corporate gifts makes them feel considered, even when the clock is against you. Here are a few simple ways to delight your clients on a deadline:

  • Handwritten notes: A heartfelt message makes your gift feel more human. Even a short “thank you” on a beautifully designed Holiday Card can go a long way.
  • Custom packaging: Branded Stickers, festive wrapping, or custom tissue paper can make the unboxing experience feel special.
  • Experience coupons: Create a voucher for something they’d appreciate, like a coffee on you or a discounted service for the new year. Print it on a premium Postcard for some extra oomph.
  • Extra surprises: Include a QR code that leads to a personalized video message, an exclusive client-only resource, a bespoke playlist, or a holiday greeting.
