They also discuss about the best practices and common pitfalls in strategic gifting. Episode Highlights 02:28 - Torrance knew that she would start a business as she was looking everywhere for kind of niches gaps in the market. 04:13 – Sam says what gifts can we send guests to accomplish their goals. 06:03 – The host says that at some point in time they will have to put on a sale to get their business where they want it to be. 7:15 - Sam enquires, how do you define what is strategic gifting. 09:20 – We can send a gift, host a virtual event, cut our overall event budget in half and accomplish more than what we were accomplishing in person, states Torrance. 11:50 – Torrance highlights how just changing the wording to book a call and getting a free gift made the Calendly Bookings go through the roof. 13:00 – They’re doing their own internal ABM, sending out emails and combining it with a get a free gift, mentions Torrance. 15:00 – Torrance points out that they are booking slightly more meetings that had a lower closed rate but they weren't wasting a ton of money on guests. 18:01- The guest shares, they created a gift around juggling and then the QR code took them to a little class. 19:56 – One of the great things that a lot of their tech partners offer is that they let the recipient choose reveals Torrance. 22:58 – Sam asks Torrance, if gifting works better in the colder stages. 25:35 – They can send something and then basically have their own clients become a warm lead and only pay the money for the ones who booked the meeting. 43 - Branded items are going to go in the trash, they can add that memorable branded experience to the outside. 28: 48 – Torrance states that if they send something in February, it's going to be really hard to be a super memorable December Gift. 30:34 – The more they can do on National Taco Day or National Juggling Day, it automatically puts their gift in the memorable and creative category, says the guest. 31:35 – Torrance points out, those companies care about who is sourcing their gift. 34:51 - Personalized Email or Handwritten Card has really opened doors and done incredible things, mentions Torrance. 36:05 – Sam thinks that sometimes just the smallest little detail which doesn't have to have a gift with it, resonates more with that than the other gift that is probably a lot more expensive. 37:46 – The guest suggests to make a list of your 10 best clients and send them a gift. 39:00 - If we look someone in the eyes and tell them something and use their name and tell them a story, that's an incredible addition that costs very little. Three Key Points Torrance says that strategic gifting is gifting, but there's always an action behind their gifts, there's always a goal. There's always something they want the recipient or client to do when they receive that gift. Sales Hacker did a study and saw that the deal size increased 2.42% in sending a gift. So, they can afford a little bit of waste there with that increase in deal size, for sure. The best practices in strategic gifting are: first, tie the gift to the action that they want the recipients to take. Second, is to offer choice to the recipients or clients.
