I’ll bet dollars to doughnuts that you or some of your techs grow herbs.

C’mon Fess Up
And I’ll just bet that you’ve got extras.  Well, why not take some of those extra herbs, plant them into cute little terra cotta pots and when they are large enough, put three of them into a long, straw basket , stick a label in each one telling what kind of herb it is and what types of food it works best with, etc.  Then gift these to your client contacts.  Oregano, rosemary, thyme and sage are sure to be a "knock their socks off" gesture.  The fact that the gift is a speciality plant keeps the gift on a friendly basis and not something like baseball tickets that could be misconstrued as a bribe. 

Get the Buzz Going
Best of all, it is a gift that will be appreciated and talked about and both men and women love herbs.  What else is in that garden of yours?  Bet you’ve got tomatos.  Lots and lots of tomatos.  Again, spread the joy.

Get Thee to the Produce Stand
Pick up those old fashioned tomato baskets.  Then fill them with all those red, ripe, luscious tomatos, slap a red bow on the handle attatch your business card, and, again, gift them to client contacts and away you go.

Nothing says more about you and your company and your green thumb or helps further client relationships than a thoughtful gift from the garden.  Heck, as we all know but sometimes forget, not everything has to be store bought.  Now, go out there and get ‘em Tiger.
