So, it’s gift time for the boss! Do you give another “World’s Greatest Boss” mug or a set of golf balls again? All the gifts you know he’d like are way out of your price range, and frankly, you don’t really like him that well anyway! The best business gift ideas are the ones that compliment the recipients hobbies and pastimes but in a funny way. Even though these gifts are gags which get the laughter flowing, they also have a practical side.
When you saw the movie “Wild Hogs”, did you recognize a couple of people from your own office, a boss, a coworker, a client or even an assistant? Knowing someone is a weekend Harley rider gives you a great gift giving opportunity. In fact, it lends itself to perfect business gift ideas that will make the whole “what the heck do I get” shopping experience much easier!
Knowing you’re dealing with a biker, whether they seem stuffy in the office or not, lets you know there’s a wild man / woman buried under those layers of staunch professionalism. Little does the world know that underneath that proper business attire lays a wind in the hair, biker bar attending and leather chap wearing free spirit, longing for the weekend. It also tells you that in spite of weekday appearances, there’s a man or woman with a sense of humor!
So, is your “Easy Rider” young or old, male or female? It doesn’t matter. There are all kinds of business gift ideas but I tend to go with those that are of special meaning to the recipient and will give us all a good laugh. Riders have to watch out for “red necks”. They’re a real pain for the biker types! Now before you go thinking about your neighbor that kicked the five dogs out from under his mobile home so he could find the keys to his rusty old pick up to dig out his half drunk bottle of Billy beer, we’re talking red neck, not Redneck. You’ve see them, those lilywhite bikers that go off on their bikes with a tank top and forget all about Mr. Sun up in the sky. After a few hours, they’ve got some of the worst “red-neck” you’ll ever see. So, why not get them some “Red Neck Repellent? This super gift is not only hilarious but it’s also practical.
Can you imagine giving a bottle of “Old Fart Spray “as a gift? This is designed specifically for the old farts out there, whatever their age, that ride and get stiff joints or achy muscles. The product helps keep the rider in the saddle a little longer by providing some great analgesic relief to sore spots and the name is a riot. When a biker receives some “Old Fart Spray” their initial reaction is laughter but then they notice that the bottle is properly sized for the motorcycle rider and the quality product inside has a practical purpose. Picture your best client whipping out his “Old Fart Spray” while he’s talking to others, they see the bottle, they all laugh and then, your name comes up. Suddenly that old fart is giving you some free advertisement!
When you start looking past the obvious junk, you’ll find that unique business gift ideas will be much more appreciated by your coworkers, clients, bosses or assistants. They are expecting that standard everyday junk they always receive. Why not surprise them with a gift that says; “Hey, I cared enough to take the time to get you something personal and special”. These fun presents aren’t just gag gifts but great practical items that have fun names and packaging. If someone gets one of these, doesn’t laugh, hug your neck or immediately turn to show it to someone else, then break out the mirror to stick under their nose and check to see if they’re still breathing!
My godmother is retiring after 31 years and celebrating her birthday simultaneously. She knows sign language and enjoys church. The party is next weekend
yeh- the spa time is a neat idea, provided she isn’t shy about being massaged or touched.
How about a gift card to her favorite christian book store boxed up with a small pin/ piece of jewelry?
I am looking for some good ideas for gifts to give our clients. I am in the sports industry and work with the entertainment part of the game. last year we sent a 6 pack of corona to our clients (minus one saying we started with out them) as a joke saying the season is over, now its time to relax on us. I don’t want to send cheesy gifts like pens, or paper weights, but something that will stick out. Also, I WILL NOT SEND A GIFT BASKET. Any thoughts?
A personalized gift is very distinctive and something all individuals will enjoy . . . Personalized Tablets and Memo Squares . . . now on sale for $19.95 with holder. Many designs from which to choose. http://www.classiccommunication.com/stationery.htm

We have heard of people doing this, but unsure if etiquette requires this. It has been over 2 weeks and we need to either do it, or just let it go…
Just take a quick glance at your hospital bill…that should convince you that they’re getting well-paid for it! A nice thank you card is all that’s necessary and proper & customary etiquette doesn’t call for anything more than that.
Our corporate office has assigned 3 units to be our specials for the week and if you sign a one year lease on the day of your move in you will recieve a free Iphone but the problem is that not everyone has at&t service and to be quite honest there are better things we could give away besides free Iphones and free rent for a month but what? Please help
yes-everyone loves a Walmart gift card..something for everyone!!!!
I built this jukebox for my father as a retirement gift. Thanks to my brother and sisters for trusting me with this special project. Visit the build thread at http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=79817.0
