The most important thing is that the present for the holiday is chosen or made with love and a desire to cheer up. Before choosing corporate gifts for March 8, think about how to surprise your colleagues and show originality.
In many firms, especially those that are prosperous and successful, people have worked for decades. In such groups, as a rule, harmony reigns. However, even like-minded people who form a close-knit team still differ in personal characteristics.
An elderly accountant, a middle-aged programmer, a respectable executive, and a young secretary cannot all have the same tastes and common hobbies. That is why, on the eve of the holidays, difficulties arise with the purchase of corporate gifts, and yet there are universal gifts. Let's look at a few examples.
For joy and memory
If you take care of preparing surprises about a month before the festive date, souvenir shops that cooperate with hand-made masters will be able to complete an order, for example, for mascot toys. Let each employee receive a cute little animal with a positive inscription on the belly or back (“I bring good luck”, “I am your talisman,” “I know how to fulfill desires,” etc.). You can ask to be provided with carbines: for sure, many will decide to attach this present to a bunch of keys, a bag handle, a desk drawer.
Another option for creative souvenirs is friendly cartoons. A professional cartoonist will draw them from their photographs - such services are offered on the Internet, besides, in big cities there are squares where artists, including portraitists, gather. Why not turn to one of them?
No less interesting will be the personified figurines of animals that have a clear resemblance to one or another member of the team. A coquettish blue-eyed cat, similar to Marya Petrovna; shy doe, reminiscent of Lenochka from the marketing department - such little things will cause both laughter and delight. Usually, a person carefully keeps such a gift, cherishes it. Just be careful with the implementation of the plan: there should not be any "offensive" animals like crocodiles, pigs, monkeys, hippos, cobras and vipers!
More serious things
It is not worth giving vases, ashtrays, cups - it is too commonplace, and not everyone needs it. Folders, diaries, business card holders with corporate symbols are another matter. The specifics of the holiday should also be taken into account. By March 8, it is appropriate to present the ladies with elegant candlesticks, something useful from small household appliances - electric kettles, hair dryers. Women appreciate both aesthetic and practical gifts.
On a note
When all the ideas have already been exhausted or there is simply no time for a long search for corporate gifts, it is best to walk through elite confectionery stores, specialized tea and coffee pavilions. They will certainly offer magnificent sets of sweets and drinks, stylishly decorated, packed in tin boxes, wooden caskets, beautiful boxes. These products are invariably associated with the holiday, which means that they will be accepted with pleasure and gratitude.
