100% Tax Deductible

Our gifts are 100% Tax Deductible as advertising. We engrave your info on your gifts. This shifts your gifts to advertising on your taxes and means you are no longer limited to the $25 tax deduction for gifts.

What We Do:

Turn gifts into an opportunity for a lifetime of brand awareness. With our strategic gifting systems, we ensure that your clients feel valued and appreciated and that you are remembered long after the transaction. 



How We Do It:

By helping business owners with a gifting strategy that have the following benefits:



  1. Retain clients: Keep your business brand top-of-mind daily with clients for decades to come. Our gift program delivers the highest return on investment in the market. 
  2. Non consumable: Most gifts are spent, eaten, or drank soon after receipt. Our gifts are used daily forever and are forever guaranteed. 
  3. 100% Tax Deduction: Our gifts are 100% tax deductible as advertising.* When you engrave your logo or information on the gifts, this is considered advertising, and you are no longer limited to the $25 legal tax deduction on gifts.  *Consult your tax professional.
  4. System in place for gifting: We can ship you a supply of gift up front and bill you interest-free over 6 or 12 months. 



What clients can expect working with you:

With our decades of experience, market expertise, and our luxury and useful products, working with our gifting consultants will enhance your brand and expand your reach long after the transaction, project start, or closing.



We believe that our clients are the heartbeat of our success, and we trust you feel the same about yours’. Because of this, we want you to give a lasting gift that will span much further than that closing. Cutco offers an option that will, quite literally, last forever. With your company’s information intricately engraved on a knife that your client will use and share with family and guests, your service and business will remain top of mind while offering a gift of appreciation that they are sure to love and use regularly. We believe that a universal, timeless gift that has a dual purpose will remain the best option for every client, every time.


Here are 10 reason our currently clients use our gifts:


Going from Good to Great Gift Check List

 
1.
Best of Class. If someone has Rolex and you give him a Fossil, that gift will land in a drawer or given to grandkids. Doesn’t need to cost $10,000 but make the gift best in class.

2.
Unique. No one wants to add to their collection of five padfolios, eight pieces of luggage, or three pairs of golf shoes. Give something different and that cannot be bought at Walmart or Nordstrom.

3.
Practical. A plaque that hangs on a wall or crystal that collects dust in the china cabinet is not an ideal gift. Most executives have plenty on their office wall. Give something that gets used on a regular basis.

4.
Longevity. Anything consumable and last minutes has low ROI and is quickly forgotten. Find something that will last years or even decades.

5.
Personalized. Since the beginning of time people have built monuments and given large sums of money to get their name remembered. People love to see their name on high level things & feel special when they do so.

6.
Auto-Pilot. Business moves so fast today that it can be difficult to keep up daily agendas. Finding a gifting program that can be easily duplicated over and over again is important if it’s going to be consistent and still special.

7.
Multi-Dimensional. Give a gift that includes the spouse. It wins game changing brownie points for the giver & the recipient.

8.
Unexpected. The element of surprise can elevate a gift from good to great because if there is no expectation, the bar of what it takes to Wow someone is lowered.

9.
Visible. If you are investing good money in gifts, it would be nice if the gift and brand was seen by someone’s circle of influence. If done properly, it can spur conversations about a company that would normally not take place.

10.
Classy. Most branded gifts are tacky. Even the best gift that is over branded will not be used by high level executives for fear of looking like a walking billboard.
