Show Your Clients Some Love this Valentine’s Day!

After All, Gifting is one of the Five Love Languages!

Hey guys. It’s Ping.

Now that the holiday season is over, I started thinking about the next upcoming reason to celebrate. Depending on your relationship status, that could either be Valentine’s Day or President’s Day. Now I don’t know about you, but I am a little overwhelmed with presidential election coverage. So I don’t even want to think about celebrating anything related to any president. So, even though I have yet to find the penguin lady of my dreams, I’m going to write about Valentine’s Day. Who doesn’t love love?

But romantic notions aside, Valentine’s Day is a fun reason to show your clients you care. Now, I know what you’re thinking:

“But Ping, what is the best way to communicate my love for my clients?”

Luckily, I do a little reading in my spare time, and I recently read a book by Gary Chapman called The Five Love Languages. In the book, Chapman lists these five methods of expressing and receiving love:

• Words of Affirmation
• Quality Time
• Physical Touch
• Acts of Service
• Gift Giving

Now, before I answer your question, let’s get on the same page about loving your clients. There’s “love,” and then there’s LOVE. If you LOVE your clients… you’re probably reading the wrong blog. But, if you’re a typical, well-adjusted business professional, and you just “love” your clients, then your goal should be to express that love in a creative and memorable way! Being that I’m the official mascot of a branded apparel and swag company, you’d be guessing right if you think my answer is: Gift Giving.

We’ve put together four really cool gift ideas to show your clients you love them this Valentine’s Day.
