How to Show Appreciation for Your Clients This Holiday Season

As the year comes to a close, it's the perfect time to reflect on the partnerships and relationships that have fueled your business’s growth. Showing appreciation to your clients not only strengthens these bonds but also leaves a lasting impression that sets the tone for the new year.

At Maria Englehardt Virtual Assistant Services (MEVS), we believe client appreciation is more than a gesture—it’s a way to celebrate the people who trust and support your business. Let’s explore how you can show gratitude to your clients this holiday season with a thoughtful note and a surprise gift!

Step 1: Write a Heartfelt Note

A personalized note goes a long way in making your clients feel valued. Here’s how to craft one:

1. Start with Gratitude

   • Thank your client for their trust and partnership throughout the year.

   Example:“Dear [Client’s Name], Thank you for trusting us with your business needs this year. Your partnership has been invaluable, and we are so grateful to be part of your success story.”

2. Highlight Specifics

   • Mention a memorable project or achievement you’ve worked on together.

   • Recognize their unique contributions to your growth.

3. End on a Positive Note

   • Share your excitement for continued collaboration in the year ahead.

   Example:“We’re looking forward to helping you achieve even more in 2025. Here’s to another year of growth and success together!”

   
   

Step 2: Surprise Them with a Gift

Pair your note with a thoughtful gift to make a lasting impact.

1. Customized Gifts

   • Items branded with your company logo, like notebooks or mugs.

   • Personalize it with their name for an extra touch.

2. Practical Gifts

   • Gift cards for coffee, office supplies, or popular services like Amazon or Uber Eats.

   • Desk accessories or tech gadgets that make their workday easier.

3. Digital Gifts

   • A free resource or eBook relevant to their industry.

   • Offer discounts on your services or partner services (like the HoneyBook discount below!).

4. Charity Donations

   • Make a donation in their name to a cause they care about.

     
     

Pro Tip for Client Gifting Success

When choosing a gift, prioritize quality over quantity. The thoughtfulness and effort behind the gesture matter more than the monetary value.

Why Client Appreciation Matters

• Strengthens Relationships: Genuine gratitude deepens trust and loyalty.

• Increases Referrals: Happy clients are more likely to recommend your services.

• Sets You Apart: Thoughtful gestures make you stand out in a crowded market.
