Few things make your clients feel as special as the perfect gift. Gift-giving has a way of deepening a relationship, and it shows that you care about someone enough to take the time to find something they’ll love.
It’s not just friendliness — it’s business. According to Michael Mauss’s theory of gift-giving reciprocity, this practice solidifies an increased sense of trust between two parties and creates interpersonal ties.
Research from 2018 backs Mauss’s 1925 report: Findings revealed that sales individuals reported two times their typical revenue when a small gift accompanied the start of negotiations.
New Years is a great time to send your clients a gift. When you send customers gifts in December — while always appreciated — they might get a bit overlooked during the holiday stress. Sending gifts for New Years shows your investment in another year serving your customer, and it often overlaps with annual contract renewals.
But what to send? Read on for a quick list of 15 New Year’s gift ideas for your clients. Here’s how you can ring in the new year (with unique gifts that are much more thoughtful than typical corporate gifts like fruit baskets and headphones).
How do you say Happy New Year to clients? Read on for 15 ideas below.

The Gift of Choice
Let your recipient choose a Goody gift of their choice, our #1 gift on Goody! They’ll be able to select a gift from the entire Goody catalog, excluding alcohol and most retail gift cards.

Italian Essentials Box by Tasty Ribbon
If your client is a foodie, the Italian Essentials gift basket from Tasty Ribbon is a perfect choice. It’s a beautiful option for a New Years gift basket that’s packed with delicious, high-quality Italian ingredients and snacks.
Your client can say ciao to their inner Italian and cook several meals with the pasta, sauces, and other snacks included in this gourmet food box.

Personalized Whiskey Decanter & Glass Set by Swanky Badger
For the whiskey lover on your client list, a personalized decanter and glass set is a custom gift they won’t forget. This set from Swanky Badger comes engraved with the recipient's name right on the decanter and glasses in a stylish font.

Ruched Faux Fur Throw by Quince
This is sure to add a glam touch to your client's room year-round. This throw is destined for the coziest moments on your sofa or draped across the edge of your bed.

Theragun Mini by Therabody
For the client who’s always sore from their workout (or the person who always gets sore from sitting at their desk all day), the Theragun Mini is a fabulous gift.
This muscle treatment can loosen up your limbs and help you relax whenever you need it. Plus, this massage gun’s portable size makes it perfect for keeping in the top drawer of a desk, a bag, or wherever your client needs it.

Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon by Beringer Vineyards
For your client who loves the finer things, you can't go wrong with a bottle of the Beringer Private Reserve Cab Sauv.
Beringer is the oldest continuously operating winery in Napa Valley, and this particular vintage has received resounding critical acclaim. It’s dry yet bold with mild acidity after being aged in French oak barrels for two years. It’s one of the most outstanding wines in the world, and we will absolutely raise a glass to that dedication to craftsmanship.

The Essential Oil and Vinegar Capsule by Brightland
For the client who loves to cook, what’s more practical than a set of high-quality oils and vinegars? The Brightland Essential Capsule is just that.
These smooth, delicious oils are made from prime olives with zero fillers or artificial preservatives. The bottles are beautiful, but they’re more than just a pretty face. Brightland packages their goods in UV-powder-coated glass bottles so you can let the natural light stream into your kitchen without a worry in the world. (If you didn’t know, too much sunlight kills the flavor of high-quality olive oil.)
Not to mention, Brightland is female-founded and committed to sustainability, making this both a fantastic gourmet gift to celebrate the New Year and a great way to support female entrepreneurs.

The Mixer Sampler by AVEC Drinks
We don’t know about you, but one thing we can’t stand is cloyingly sweet cocktails. Maybe your client is a cocktail lover and feels the same way. If so, here’s a practical holiday gift they can keep on their bar cart: the AVEC Drinks Sampler pack.
AVEC is in the cocktail game to show us that mixers don’t have to be full of sugar to be exciting. Toast to your client’s good health with AVEC’s sampler, which has 80 to 90% less sugar than traditional mixers.
This pack comes with three cans of each of their five flavors, so this perfect gift will last them through the rest of the holiday season, making every party a little sweeter.

Stone Diffuser by vitruvi
Your clients may have a diffuser somewhere in their office or their home. If so, a bit of an upgrade is in order. Enter the Stone Diffuser from vitruvi.
The elegant design and matte stone finish make this diffuser a gorgeous piece to put on your desk or side table, even while it’s turned off. When sent with Goody, the lucky recipient can choose from eight colors so that their home looks as lovely as it smells.

44 Extra Anejo Tequila by Avión Reserva
New Year’s Eve is upon us, and everyone could use some quality tequila to start the night off. The deluxe Avión Reserva tequila is exactly that.
You want to sip this tequila, not do shots with it. It’s aged for 36 months in bourbon barrels and has an expansive flavor profile with 44 different flavor notes, so take the time to savor it.

Boarderie Ciccetti Board by Boarderie
Another excellent option for the charcuterie lover is a pre-assembled fruit, nut, and chocolate board. This one from Boarderie includes delicious dried fruits, premium nuts, and gourmet chocolates.
This gift comes with a stunning star-shaped acacia wood board and bamboo serving ware, so this beautiful piece can be used for future snacks at a gathering with family and loved ones.
No need to worry about a gift receipt or return shipping. When you gift with Goody, the recipient can simply swap the gift for a nut-free alternative.

Sansevieria Snake Plant by Bloomscape
Easy-to-care-for plants, like succulents or snake plants, are a fantastic way to bring some light to your client’s office or workspace.
The Sansevieria Snake Plant is the ideal plant to get a novice gardener. The wide, waxy leaves have a peaceful vibe, so it’s no wonder that indoor plants actually improve a person’s mood and can reduce stress. The snake plant’s charming woven basket adds to this feeling of serenity and seamlessly matches every home decor scheme.

Popcorn Sampler Gift Box by The Hampton Popcorn Company
If you know your client is a major snack enthusiast (who isn’t, honestly), this popcorn sampler gift box will be their dream come true.
It has eight of the Hampton Popcorn Company’s best-selling flavors, so you know there’s something they’ll enjoy. The silver wrapping and sweet bow exude the shining promise of a bright new year.
Send the Perfect Gift, No Address Needed
Gifts are an essential part of any relationship (whether with a client or a loved one). A thoughtful gift lets someone know you care about them and brings you closer together.
That’s why Goody makes it easier than ever to give someone the perfect gift. With Goody, you don’t need your clients' addresses. All you need is the recipient’s phone number or email. (They provide all their shipping details when they accept your gift.) You choose the gift and a digital card, and it gets sent via email, complete with a beautiful digital unwrapping experience.
The best part about gifting on Goody is that recipients can swap their gift. After they receive the gift, they can choose the color or specifications they like or even sub the gift out for something else that’s equal or lower priced, with no pricing shown. (That’s pretty important when you’re sending alcohol as a client gift – since 30% of people don’t drink.)
Goody can help with Christmas gifts, Father’s Day gifts, and everything in between. So sign up for Goody today (it’s free!) and watch your gift-giving woes melt away as you make your clients feel appreciated and cared for.
