My company recently merged and our client and employee rosters have grown to three times their original size! We'd like to aviod having all 20 employees sign each client's birthday card. We're also looking for great new, "out-of-the-box" client birthday gift ideas. Ideas and suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!

In the last company I worked for, we sent a card to each client (I signed them on behalf of the entire company) and we offered to make a donation in their honor to their favorite charity. They just had to call us and give us the name of the charity. This provided us with an "extra" opportunity to personally interact with them, learn something new about what is important in their lives, and it showed that we cared about personalizing our gifts. We got such amazing responses!! I think it was a truly unique idea and our clients would tell everyone about it because it really meant a lot to them. Plus, it showed our commitment to giving back.
