If you are considering purchasing client gifts this year, remember to keep in mind that some items may not be appropriate. A few weeks ago I shared a story of a client that wanted to give a gift to a neighbor who is Jehovah’s Witness. Oftentimes people are afraid to buy gift during the holidays because of religious affiliations. This week, I’ve spoken with a client who is Mormon, so I could share some ideas on suitable gifts for Latter-day Saints.
“You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.” ~Desmond Tutu
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are family oriented. If you are giving gifts to a family consider movie tickets, sports tickets, and games the family can enjoy together. Dietary restrictions include no coffee (caffeine) or black teas (tannic acid), and no alcohol or cigarettes. For more ideas visit: http://www.mellymormon.com/
This year our holiday selection is a nice selection of gifts for families, co-workers, clients and friends. And we’ve included sparkling cider as a nice substitution when you are not sure what is appropriate.
Over the last year, I’ve achieved some athletic goals, by training for four triathlons and a marathon. With all the workouts came the need to treat myself better, inside and out. This year you will notice gourmet gifts baskets with more sensible gourmet products than the typical junk food basket. Olives, sparkling cider, teas, mustards, salmon and cheeses are paired with elegant serving trays. And you’ll find trail mixes, nuts, dried fruits, pretzels, jerky and granola as alternatives to chips and candy.
