Client gifts that stay on the shelf, not in the drawer

Short answer: A client gift competes with a stack of vendor baskets. A personalized children's book about the client's own profession does not get eaten or forgotten, and your firm's name sits on the final page. Buy codes in bulk and send one per client with no per client logistics.

Why this beats the branded basket

Procurement teams and repeat clients receive the same gifts from every vendor. Nothing about a basket says you understand their work.

This does. The client answers a few questions about their own career and receives a hardcover starring them. It is the gift they photograph, and it is the one their family sees.

Teams that use it

  • Real estate agents sending a closing gift the family keeps long after the move.
  • Financial advisors marking a client's retirement with a book about the career they built.
  • Enterprise sales teams thanking a key account after a major deal closes.
  • Consulting and agency teams closing out a long engagement.
  • Insurance and services teams using it as a renewal and retention touch.

How the program runs

  • Buy redemption codes in bulk. Each code is a 00 credit toward any package, so shipping and tax are covered for a printed hardcover.
  • You get a CSV of unique codes plus a copy and paste email template, so distribution fits whatever you already use: HR email, Slack, an onboarding packet, a printed card.
  • The recipient answers a short interview about their own work, uploads one photo, and their book is illustrated with them as the hero of all 20 scenes.
  • Your company name and logo appear once, discreetly, on the last page, set in the same type as the story.
  • Your dashboard shows which codes are redeemed and which are still unused, so nothing goes to waste.

What it costs

  • Codes are 00 face value and cover a full printed hardcover with worldwide shipping and tax.
  • The per-code price drops in steps as your volume grows, starting at 10 codes.
  • Orders of 500 or more are quoted directly, including invoicing and PO terms.
  • Unused codes stay valid, so you can buy a batch for the year and hand them out as milestones land.

Questions buyers ask next

Do we have to ask the client for personal details?
No. You send a code, the client completes their own interview and uploads their own photo. Nothing personal passes through your team.
How visible is our branding?
Your name and logo appear once on the last page, under an optional short note. The story never mentions your firm, which is why it reads as a gift rather than a campaign.
Can we send codes to clients in other countries?
Yes. Hardcovers ship worldwide and the digital edition is instant.
Is there a gift receipt or value on it?
No price appears anywhere in the book or the redemption flow the client sees.

How every WorkTale book ends

Every WorkTale book closes with two pages no name-swap personalized book has. First, a "So, what does Mommy, Daddy, or your grown-up do?" page that distills the parent's entire job into one plain-spoken line a child can recite from memory, with no jargon and no job description. Then an "About the Author" page with the parent's real photograph, name, job title, and a short biography blurb, so the illustrated hero is revealed as the real person the child knows. Why the parent is the hero.
