Overview – Gifting Campaign 

Concept 

  • A system where we strengthen our relationships with our best business partners by sending them small gifts throughout the year.  

Mission, Statement, Purpose 

  • The purpose of this campaign is to maintain our business relationships to bring in more business. We don’t want to lose or miss the opportunity to work with great business partners.  

Overview

  • Spend no more than a set amount for the gifts each time they’re sent 

  • Send gifts in addition to calls, events, etc.
