Why custom gift boxes make the best client gifts
The best client gifts are not always the most expensive options. They are the ones with personal touches that make your customers feel seen. People love to receive custom gift boxes because it shows that time and thought went into the process.
You can make client gift boxes in several ways:
- Curate custom gifts specific to the customer’s job position
- Design a gift basket with the client’s brand or company logo included
- Send items that reflect a knowledge of your customer’s interests or hobbies
What is a curated gift box?
Putting together the perfect gift for clients takes research, time, and effort. A curated gift box is a themed collection of pre-selected and sometimes customizable items that have been hand-picked by gifting experts.
At Sendoso, our gifting experts are hands down, our Send Curation team. They are constantly sourcing local business vendors for our customers globally, and they preemptively work with minority-owned, women-owned, or other cause-specific businesses. If your client is a coffee fiend based in the UK, they can curate a perfectly thoughtful gift box from that delicious local coffee brewery in London. If your client is on-the-go, they can curate a travel-inspired gift box, complete with genuine, handcrafted leather passport holders and noise-cancelling headphones–just to name a few ideas.
Personalized gifting through custom gift boxes is an effective way to elevate business gifts, holiday gifts, and all your “just because” gifts for corporate clients.
How much should you spend on client gifts?
There is no firm rule on how much to spend on customer appreciation gifts. It’s a fine line to walk, making sure you don’t go overboard with a lavish gift while also avoiding being too thrifty. Answering these quick questions is a great way to determine an appropriate client gift budget:
- What is the value of the relationship?
- What position does the client hold in the company?
- Is there a customer milestone coming up like a contract renewal?
- What gift-giving policies are in place at the customer’s company?
- How many gifts are you planning to give?
- What is the company’s privacy policy?
How to budget for your client appreciation campaign
Whether you’re planning on a few client gifts, or want to create an entire client appreciation campaign, it’s a good idea to set a budget. Welcome to the beginnings of an account-based marketing (ABM) campaign, where you divy up and target your customers with personalized approaches to maximize your return-on-investment (ROI). As ABM thought leaders, we’ve learned a few tricks of the trade we recommend to help you get started.
- Start by identifying your most important customers and assign them low, middle, and top priority tiers. Consider how their role will make a difference in which “tier” of gifting they fall into. For example, to make a lasting impression on business executives and your high-value clients plan to spend $100 or more on a high-quality gift.
- Next, think about how often you plan to send appreciation gifts. Will they be for attendees of a one-time event, or for birthdays, Mothers Day, and regular customer appreciation milestones? We recommend doing quarterly “touches” as the ideal gifting frequency, especially with your top-tier customers. But if you can’t afford to do it right with truly meaningful gifts, then consider scaling back.
- It is better to leave a lasting impression. Focus on sending a few impactful gifts rather than several forgettable ones. Include a handwritten note, follow up with a phone call, or check in to make sure they received your gift.

How curated gift boxes help retention with ongoing clients
Every company has a long list of businesses that they partner with and they receive new pitches every day. To retain ongoing clients, it’s important to stay top-of-mind. Customers stay loyal to companies that they feel they have a personal relationship with. Sending thoughtful corporate gifts to them communicates your gratitude for their business and your commitment to an ongoing work partnership.
How gift-giving can increase your ROI
Every action and decision you make in your business is tied to a goal. One desired outcome of showing customer appreciation is to build stronger connections and relationships, and at its core, the goal here is increasing return-on-investment (ROI.)

- A bigger customer base
- Boost in sales
