Say what you will about them, but entrepreneurs are people too. And like you and me, nothing would brighten up their Christmas day better than receiving a nifty present or two from their loved ones. So if you happen to have an entrepreneur (or someone who wants to have an ongoing business) on your people-to-give-gifts-to list, below are some of the best items you can get for them.
Planner
Entrepreneurs would do whatever it takes to stay motivated and productive. To that end, they carefully plan their schedules, meticulously allotting activity for each hour of the day. By giving your business-savvy pal a snazzy planner this Yuletide season, you’ll be able to help them do that and more. Aside from enabling them to better organize their time, they would be able to document their victories through a good planner.
Customized Business Card
If you’ve seen American Psycho (which starred Christian Bale), then you probably noticed how much fuss businessmen make when it comes to their business cards. And despite businesses and organizations going digital in recent decades, the paper business card still remains relevant for entrepreneurs who want to make a great impression. So if you want your pal’s holiday to be extra special, better have a set of customized business cards made for him or her.
Waterproof Notepad
It’s a strange phenomenon, but a lot of entrepreneurs come up with their pièce-de-résistance business strategies or ideas while in the shower. These ideas go as quickly as they come, however, which is why there’s a notepad on the other side of the shower curtain. By getting them a waterproof notepad instead of a traditional one, you’ll be able to help them better remember their eureka moments.
Whiteboard and Marker
A good whiteboard and marker set not only helps businessmen remember their ideas better, but it’s also great when explaining said ideas to their team. Sure, they can make their proposals through powerpoints and their laptops and they’ll explain their plans just as clearly. But there’s something about using a whiteboard that makes the planning a bit more personal and intimate for the entrepreneur and his people.
Business Book
Entrepreneurs love to read, and your friend probably is no exception. So it goes without saying that a good business book would most likely be on top of their Christmas wish list. Now when buying your business-minded buddy a book, you have two options. One, you can buy him or her a single book. Or two, you can get them a free subscription at Audible or similar audiobook providing platforms.
Make Your Friend Happy
By buying any (or all) of these gifts for your business-savvy pal, you’ll surely make his or her Christmas extra special. So if you haven’t gotten anything for them yet, best go look for the items listed above.
