A successful company needs repeat clients and customers — these individuals drive 25% to 40% of total revenue for a stable business. However, this type of insurance is hard to come by: It can take three to five years to hit the low end of that dedicated base.
Maintaining personal relationships is a significant part of retaining VIP clientele. Research shows that companies that don’t prioritize a personalized approach to business could lose 38% of their customers. One way to connect with your VIP clients is to send a thoughtful gift.
Few things are better for building client loyalty than a well-timed, thoughtful gift. Gifts show your client that you’re thinking about them and that they mean more than numbers in a spreadsheet.
Read on to discover the perfect gifts for the most important people in your professional network and learn how personalized gifts from Goody give your recipient a say in what box ends up at their doorstep.
1. The Fundamentals Kitchen Set by Material
If you know that your VIP client has a passion for the culinary arts, The Fundamentals from Material is the perfect gift for their home kitchen.
The Fundamentals kit comes with six stylish yet functional kitchen tools that they can use to make every meal: two knives, tongs, a wooden spoon, a metal spoon, and a slotted spatula. All of it is housed in a beautiful wooden base.
The recipient can choose between three handle colors — Almost Black, Cool Neutral, or Blue Grey. This ensures that this set elevates the aesthetic of their counter space and makes a practical difference in their lives.
2. Pure Wool Throw Blanket by Brooklinen
For a corporate gift idea that is pure luxury, consider the Pure Wool Throw Blanket from Brooklinen.
This throw comes in a beautiful neutral color that will look lovely in any living room. This 100% wool blanket was handmade in Germany with the finest sustainable materials and ethical business practices.

7. TheraFace PRO by Therabody
Therabody is known for its first-class athletic massage tools, but with the TheraFace PRO, the company enters (and revitalizes) the skincare scene. Drawing from the percussive therapy technique that Therabody made famous, this skincare gadget offers a wide range of settings for a lasting impression.
The TheraFace PRO lets users customize their routines — tension relief, contouring, firming, and lifting are all possible. The cleansing ring removes debris and dead skin, while the microcurrent ring works on tightening and plumping for an unmistakable glow. Three different light settings (blue, red, and red + infrared) can help reduce acne, wrinkles, and pain.

With high-quality sound, convenient features, and noise-canceling properties, a set of AirPods Pro is a gift that new clients, important clients, and anyone in between will enjoy.
The Pro version of this trend-setting product offers noise cancellation, spatial audio, and unparalleled 24-hour battery life so you can transform a flight or corner of the gym into a soothing space.
9. The Golden State Capsule by Brightland
If you’re looking for a premium corporate gift, The Golden State Capsule from Brightland brings the sunny taste of California cuisine to your business partners, wherever they may be.
Your client will receive six of Brightland’s best-selling oils and two bottles of vinegar. AWAKE, ALIVE, ARDOR, ARISE, PARASOL, LUCID, RAPTURE, and ROSETTE can bring new light to any favorite recipe and encourage an at-home chef to try a new creation. With the help of The Spout, pouring oils is a science, ensuring the correct quantity every time.
The unmistakable white bottles with a cheerful color palette are synonymous with Brightland, a sustainable, family-run farm that snubs the use of any fillers or artificial preservatives.
10. Best of Box (3 Months) by Porter Road
The Best of Box from Porter Road is a high-end corporate gift that enhances business relationships through its thoughtful functionality.
Instead of receiving a singular gift, this gourmet food gift box arrives at their doorstep once every three months. Each box contains two steaks, two pork chops, two pounds of ground beef, a pound of bacon, a pound of sausage, and a pound of chorizo.
The insulation (Green Cell Foam) is biodegradable and reusable. This one-of-a-kind packaging material can help light your BBQ, or you could simply wash it down the sink.
For ten years, Porter Road has been sourcing the highest quality American-grown meats from family-owned, ethical pastures in Kentucky and Tennessee. Praised by Food & Wine, The Wall Street Journal, Business Insider, and bon appétit, Porter Road has the credentials — and quality — you can count on.
11. Caviar Gift Set by ROE Caviar
Treat your most high-end clients to an evening of fine dining with the ROE Caviar Gift Set. Not only does this appetizer plate have some of the world’s best caviar, but it comes with potato chips and créme fraîche to make a combination worthy of a nod from Martha Stewart (which it did receive).
ROE harvests luxury caviar from American white sturgeon from a sustainable, Northern California farm. Your client will open a carefully-packaged 30G tin of some of the best single-origin caviar there is. Once opened, the black, gold-rimmed tin invites the diner to indulge in buttery, nutty, and briny tones that transport the taste buds to the open sea.
12. The Smart Planter by ēdn
The smart ēdn planter brings the peace of the great outdoors to any inside space.
This luxury corporate gift idea comes with an app that allows you to review the water levels and light exposure from wherever you are in the world, adjusting as needed with a simple tap. Then, when the time comes for harvesting, the app guides the at-home gardener through the process.
Say Thank You to the VIPs
Your VIP clients are some of the most influential people in your circle. They fuel your business, so sending an appreciation gift is a fabulous way to make sure they keep you in mind.
With Goody, this process doesn’t have to be complicated.
Sign up for a business account, select the gift you’d like to give from Goody’s collections, and put in the recipient’s email or phone number. The gift is sent to their inbox with a fun, digital gift-opening experience. They then put in their address, and the gift gets sent straight to them, giving you the freedom to be thoughtful without the hassle of buying and wrapping a gift.
Goody allows users to swap gifts if they so choose (which 50% of recipients opt to do). This feature allows gifters to avoid the potential social faux pas around sending items like alcohol, especially if the recipient is one of the roughly 40% of Americans who choose not to drink.
Keep interpersonal connections strong with gift-giving efforts that combine individual thought with recipient choice. As relationships grow, so do businesses.
