Decide if these are going to individuals or a group and choose the appropriate gift or discuss other gift suggestions with us. At Christmas this is best done in October to avoid disappointment.
Step 3: Prepare a list of clients and
their current addresses add the name of the business who
is receiving which gift. Please also include a recipient phone
number. Include your message for the client whether it is a personal
individual message or a generic message. Decide your date for delivery of your
gifts.

list. Let us know your colour preferences, card or decal, and whether you would
like us to include your logo.
