Personalized Gifts

Next Wednesday don’t forget your office professionals that support you and your team! 

As a former Admin Assistant I loved being appreciated and getting a little gift here and there…even without a “thank you for setting up the presentation” goes a long way!  There is a joke in the Admin world that if you want to talk to someone at the top whether you are looking for a job, selling a service or product you have to be able to get past his/her Admin Asst because the best Admins have a relationship much like that of a mother or wife (now don’t think about that too much..the tv is spoiling your brain…I mean a good admin knows how they like their coffee, what their favorite lunch is, what items they need to get through an entire day, etc) they work together like a well oiled machine and they will screen who the “boss” talks to and who they see. I was in a position once where I gave insight to employment applications and many times was a deciding participant who got a n interview and who didn’t. 

You want your office professionals on your side. Even if you don’t work directly in an office you may need to visit one so remember that the next time you get stumped at the front desk..compliments and a little candy may get you in the door!
