Corporate gift giving has become a customary practice to thank your corporate partners or reward your employees. But choosing the right corporate gift isn’t always easy. To give the right one, organizational leaders need to consider these three factors:

• First, will your intended recipient use the gift, or will it be left gathering dust on their desk?
• Second, is the gift personalized for your recipient, or could the gift be given to anyone?
• Third, are you giving the gift at the appropriate time?

Once these three gift-giving considerations have been contemplated, corporate leaders can start to search for the right gifts for partners or employees. Anyone in your company can choose a product, personalize that product with your company logo, and give the branded gift to anyone on their list. Here are eight of our favorite logo-welcoming (and trendy) corporate gifts:
