Here are six reasons why it is so important to show your employees that you appreciate them…and four appreciation gifts they're sure to love!

1. Happy employees are much more productive. What could make them happier than seeing pictures of their friends and family with their very own Reflections 1.5" Digital Photo Frame?
2. People who enjoy their job are less likely to leave, which means lower employee turnover rates.
3. Employees who feel appreciated are more likely to go the extra mile on projects and sales. Your employees will definitely feel appreciated with a useful and thoughtful gift like the Eclipse Travel Tote.
4. Your customers will have a better experience when they interact with employees who like their job.
5. When employees think highly of their employers, they become a great source of word-of-mouth advertising for your business. They'll also be promoting your business when they carry an umbrella like the Budget Beater 60.
6. Doing something nice for your employees makes you feel good, too. Everyone will feel warm and fuzzy when you give away Promotional Fleece Blankets.

These are two weeks set aside for honoring the men and women whose professions contribute so much to our...
There are lots of ways to say thank you to our nurses and teachers, but a thoughtful gift is just about the nicest way of all. Check out our suggestions for the perfect appreciation gifts for teachers and nurses.

Teachers:

• 12oz. Spooner Mug: This coffee mug has a cool extra feature - the handle has a slot sized just right for holding a spoon. A coordinating white spoon is even included!
• Promotional 60" Golf Umbrella: Just like our mail carriers, teachers have to go to work even in the rain and snow. This generously sized golf umbrella will keep them and their supplies dry.
• Top Selling Camp Chair: Encourage the teacher in your life to enjoy a relaxing afternoon at the park in this comfy camp chair.
  

Nurses:

• Multi-Function Backpack Tote: This interchangeable bag can function either as a tote bag or backpack - it's like two gifts in one!
• Pacific Trail Cooler: Every nurse needs a nice insulated cooler for carrying their lunch or dinner to work.
• Jewel Collection Colored Beach Towel: Sometimes a nurse's work is no day at the beach…that's why they deserve a day at the beach under the sun on this plush terry velour towel.

You can give them to employees, tradeshow attendees, prospects, friends, family members and just about anyone you meet. And, of course, you give promotional...
Sometimes, though, you need to take a slightly different approach with giving promotional items to your clients. When you really want to make a lasting impression, opt for a gift that's customer-centered, one that's geared more towards showing appreciation than advertising your business.

We've put together a list of four of our favorite customer-centered gifts that everyone is sure to love:

1. Upgrade your promotional pens to the exec-worthy Maestro Click Stainless Steel Pen. Your customers will like its smooth, comfortable grip.
2. Give your customers the gift of convenience with a Bic Media Clic Mechanical Pencil. With no need to sharpen them, mechanical pencils are quite handy.
3. Technology gifts are always a big hit. Your customers can use the Laser Pointer USB Flash Drive at home and the office.
4. Want to really knock their socks off? Put some music into their day with the impressive gift of a 1G Slimline MP3 Player v.2.0.
