After listening to the audiobook Giftology, it occurred to me that gifting is not only extremely important to your customers/clients but also your staff members or employees. They bust their keisters day-in and day-out to help your small business succeed. Servers, chefs, bartenders, managers, and owners all can use a good gift from time to time. In the book, John Ruhlin says the best gifts are personalized, are inner-circle-focused, timed perfectly, extremely valuable, and something they really want. He also suggests the worst time to give a gift is on a holiday or birthday. The best gifts come as a surprise and I couldn’t agree more. However, I know you probably found this post because you were searching for a restaurant gift guide or gift ideas for restaurant workers for Christmas or the holidays. That’s okay, they’ll still appreciate them. So in this article, we’ve already uncovered what makes a great gift – now let’s help you find the perfect gifts for your restaurant employees or management. Let’s get started.
