Choosing client and employee gift ideas for small businesses is a bit different from shopping for a huge corporate client. Small businesses employees often appreciate more practical gifts that they can actually use \u2014 and if you\u2019re a small business yourself, then you are probably shopping within a budget as well, which means that you need realistic options. Here are six of our favorite client and employee gift ideas for small businesses:<\/span><\/p>\n

Full Color Lanyard with Swivel J-Hook<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

While we offer a lot of<\/span> custom lanyards<\/span><\/a> to suit all needs and budgets, we especially love this one for its full sublimation-dyed design, which prominently shows off your logo or graphic to all who see it. The lanyard comes in a classic 1-inch width and a generous 36-inch length for comfortable wear or easy attachment. The lanyard comes with a metal crimp and metal swivel snap hook as the default attachment, but many other options are available, including ID badge holders and claw clips, so you can mix and match according to your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also opt for a custom USB lanyard<\/a> if you need data storage space on the go.<\/p>\n

Paper Mate\u00ae Inkjoy Black Ink Pen<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

Custom pens<\/span><\/a> are a tried and true client gift idea for small businesses, so if you\u2019re stuck on what item to choose, definitely consider this model from Paper Mate\u00ae. The InkJoy\u00ae 300RT ballpoint pen has an ultra-smooth tip that never drags on paper, ensuring that your writing is always clear and legible and that the pen is easy to write or draw with. The rubberized grip is comfortable to hold for long periods of time, and the retractable design requires a simple click to activate. Choose from nine different vibrant ink colors and decorate the barrel with your logo of choice for a lasting impression.<\/span><\/p>\n

As an alternative, our rubberized custom puns<\/a> are also a good choice.<\/p>\n

\"Non-Skid<\/p>\n

Non-Skid Foam Computer Mouse Pad<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n

When it comes to making a statement with your employee gift ideas, few products offer a larger printed area than a classic<\/span> custom mousepad<\/span><\/a>. This particular model offers a generous space that measures nine by eight inches for making a big brand statement. Choose from five different background colors and print your logo on them in white, or upgrade to the full-color option to print the entire mousepad with a custom graphic of your choice. The non-slip foam rubber backing keeps the mousepads in place, providing a smooth and steady surface for your computer mouse.<\/span><\/p>\n
