Most people suck at gift giving.

Here are 3 gifts EVERYBODY wants.

LFG

👇

1. Food

If you have no idea what to gift someone.

Start with food.

Everyone loves food.

Especially fit people.

I enjoy food more than most.

Not because I get to eat well-cooked meals.

Quite the opposite.

But because I eat the same 10 foods so often that when moments come along (like Thanksgiving), you best believe I will feast on all the fixings.

And enjoy every bite of it.

If you have no idea what to give someone.

Offer the gift of food.

• Fruit basket.
• Local honey.
• Nitrate-free beef sticks.
• Organ blend ground beef.

Or, my personal favorite, host a big ol’ potluck.

2. Admiration

Gifts don’t have to be expensive.

They can be completely free.

I host a podcast show.

Now and then, someone will reach out to me.

• “You’re the reason I started my business.”
• “You’re honestly an incredible podcaster.”
• “Your personal story changed my life.”

Messages like this have always meant far more to me than the money I’ve made from the show.

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy getting paid.

But admiration pulls on my hamstrings.

Or heartstrings, if you prefer.

How can you give the gift of admiration to your customers?

Here are some ideas.

• Send them a “thank you” message.
• Highlight a client on your social media page.
• Comment on their most recent post.
• Give them a genuine compliment.

Or, my personal favorite, mail them a handwritten gratitude card.

3. Time

I hate stuff.

But I love time.

I’m a millennial.

Which means I grew up with a lot of stuff.

I’m grateful for it.

But it’s not what I value.

I value time above all else.

The best gift anyone can give me?

THEIR time.

I think this is true for most people.

We’re all starving for time.

Give your customers the gift of time.

Here are a few ideas.

• Go on a walk.
• Buy them lunch.
• Take them to coffee.
• Take a workout class together.

Or my personal favorite, compete in a race.

Take home point…
- Give the gift of food.
- Give the gift of admiration.
- Give the gift of time.
