My  grandson turned 18 years old, and we enjoyed seeing him perform in several high school plays (one of which he wrote). My daughter started her own business, and is thriving. If you love music and live in San Diego you should check out her website at  www.eliteaudience.com! She is also our webmaster and very good at it.

Many companies have an automated program in place to make sure every new client they obtain is immediately celebrated and thanked. There is usually an assistant who is in charge of collecting the information from the salespeople on a weekly basis, and making sure  welcome gifts are sent out with a note of appreciation and the salesperson’s business card in each one.

BEGIN THE RELATIONSHIP 

The welcome gift starts a relationship with your client, and can take you from being just a forgotton name on a list, to being considered a member of the team. It is said that when you have a strong relationship with your client, you have no competition! 

MATCH THEIR PERSONALITY

For a sophisticated company, you could do an elegant gift baskets with an upscale gourmet assortment such as fine hand made chocolates, salmon fillet, cookies, cheese crackers, pretzels and more for  the entire company to share. . An over sized Latte mug with your logo, that is filled with coffee and desserts is a nice gift for the owner of a smaller business. For a client in the Health and Wellness industry, a nice basket of fresh fruit, nuts and healthy snacks would be a great choice. A gift basket with freshly baked cookies and a few mugs (with your logo on them) along with coffee and tea is a popular welcome gift.

If you have any questions, feel free to give us a call at 858-578-2740 or visit our website at www.thebesttoyou.com.

Of  thousands of gift basket companies across the U.S., The Best To You was chosen to have a healthy gourmet basket featured in the national magazine for the industry

Are there gourmet items that are healthy, beautifully packaged and taste really great? The answer is a resounding yes!

• First of all, there are many dark chocolates (full of anti-oxidents) that are beautifully packaged and especially delicious! Other suggestions include:
• Apple Butter from the apple orchards in Julian and whole grain crackers makes a delicious breakfast addition or snack.
• Just Vegies and Just Strawberries are fresh fruits and vegetables that are all natural, freeze dried, fullof nutrients and have the texture of popcorn. You have to try them to understand the sweet flavor and addicting crunch! Sneak them in the movie theatre and you won’t even miss the popcorn filled with artificial butter!
• Salmon fillet comes in an elegant package and is a healthful and delicious appetizer or snack spread on whole grain crackers or can turn an average salad into a very special gourmet lunch.
• Almondina Biscuits are low calorie, healthy cookies made mostly with almonds. They come in different flavors including chocolate. I always have some with me when I go to Starbucks for coffee. They are delicious and satisfying. I love the sesame and the chocolate!
• Dried apricots, mixed nuts and organic fruit and nut mix  all make great munchy snacks at the office and will help you pass on the not so healthy snacks being passed around.Vanilla Creme Spice Organic Tea is delicious and a great way to unwind. Indulge in that instead of the late night snack!
• Last but not least, of course is fresh seasonal fruit. Mangos, Kiwis, pears, bananas, oranges, apples and fresh pineapple to name a few. The Jazz apples in season at the store now are so sweet, crisp and juicy! Fresh blueberries. rasberries, blackberries and strawberries make an elegant and healthy desert in a wine glass topped with cool whip and a sprig of mint leaf. Most everyone loves fruit and few of us eat enough, we just don’t always have it around us! That is why fruit baskets are so popular, and no one does them better than The Best To You!
