Organising a great line of speakers for any event can often mean the difference between an outstanding event and one that’s just average. Speakers are leaders in their field; they anchor your event, and a great speaker will leave the audience buzzing.
In return for helping make your event a success, gifting speakers with a thoughtful item to say thank you is a nice touch and an added bonus. Conference gifts are also a great way of re-delivering a message, something unique, useful and personal to the delegate.
If you are struggling to find the perfect gift for speakers at your event, look no further. Below are unusual luxury corporate gift ideas with a wide range of price points, to inspire you.
1. Send a gift to the speaker’s office
For their colleagues to enjoy, sweet treats can be a great way of thanking both the speaker and their organisation. Help speakers get some brownie points with their colleagues with a treat from www.fabulousbakes.com
2. Personalised glassware for the speaker
To present at the event, why not buy a quality item of glassware to thank the speaker for helping to make the event successful. We suggest choosing a personalised tumbler in which you can personalise with etched initials, a company logo or special thank you message, such as the Inkerman initial tumbler.
3. Personalised coaster for each delegate
Reiterate your message with a customized leather coaster for each delegate, a constant reminder on their desk of an inspiring message.
4. Consider gifting a charity donation
Rather than giving a gift to delegates or a speaker, you could choose a relevant charity and make a donation. We are currently supporting http://www.tusk.org. Get gift inspiration by taking a look at our charity collection.
5. Classic notebooks
Inkerman notebooks are a design classic and a fantastic gift, which can also be personalized with initials, skylines, or branded with a logo. Made from supple leather, our classic leather notebooks are a gift that can positively represent an organisation whilst being useful to the recipient.
6. A Thoughtful Handwritten note
It’s always nice to get a gift, but a good old fashioned thank you note never goes out of style. Speaking at events can be great for a speaker’s personal brand, so it’s often enough just to know that their time has been appreciated, to receive any feedback on what the audience found interesting. Thank you notes should be handwritten, never printed or emailed.
Perfect gifts for all budgets
There are a number of options when deciding what gifts to give your speakers or delegates, just remember that it may be worth thinking about the appropriateness of the gifts. Many gifts have different pricing options, so no matter what the budget, you’ll still be able to say thank you to everyone.
