I hate to say it, but the holidays are right around the corner. I know it may not feel like it, but Thanksgiving is 44 days away, which means Christmas and Hanukkah are not too far behind it. And after Thanksgiving, it all becomes kind of a blur anyway, doesn’t it?
I am not telling you this so you can run right out to your local mall to start your Christmas shopping or start thinking of what you’d like to ask for, if anyone asks you what you want. What I AM advocating is that you start thinking about your best customers, and just how you might express your gratitude to them this holiday season. Many companies don’t seem to give gifts any more, using the “economy” as their explanation (excuse). I’m going to tell you why you should not do this.
