Gift Guide for Entrepreneurs 2022
‘Tis the season, yet again. Somehow we’re at the end of 2022 and while we’re not facing the same supply issues we did in 2021, time is still limited!
Whether they’ve spent this year reintegrating to a traditional office or perfecting their WFH set up, most entrepreneurs out there will appreciate getting a lil’ some’n some’n to cap off another busy as hell year.
Here’s a list of our top gifts for the entrepreneur in your life (yes, even if that’s you) who deserves a little celebration and revelry for making it through another year chock full of Zoom calls, in-person meetings, WFH hellscapes, and enough commentary from acquaintances to last them a lifetime.
Best Gifts for Entrepreneurs
MOLESKINE SMART WRITING SYSTEM
For the hard copy zealot who also wants to be a little more digital. This smart pen + paper tablet (Oxymoron? We think not) lets you seamlessly transfer what’s written on the notebook to your digital device – allowing you to notate, share, search, edit, and organize your notes, online. Works with Android + Apple.
There is no such thing as too much coffee for any entrepreneur. And if they don’t drink coffee (which is totally not okay), there’s always room for tea in this bad mama jamma. As an Austin-based company, we would be remiss to not include YETI on this list of goodness. Our favorite is the 20 oz tumbler, which you can even get engraved with their company logo if you want to go all out.
Since travel is back on the horizon, this carry-on suitcase is our favorite not only for its posh aesthetic that will make anyone look like a boss – but also for its sustainability. Each suitcase is carbon-neutral and made from sustainable and recycled materials including plastic bottles and recycled aircraft-grade aluminum.
EVERLASTING COMFORT LUMBAR PILLOW
Sitting for hours on end at the computer can do a number on one’s back. This lumbar pillow has been a top choice for years. Its simplicity and effectiveness set it apart from competitors. And who doesn’t want to be head and shoulders (and backs) above the rest?
Working from home could use a boost…of signal. Yes, we know we’re cheesy. Yes, we are totally okay with that. But seriously, adding Eero to your home wifi will help enhance your signal throughout the space and allow you to get high-speed internet from all corners of your home. Even the hard-to-reach ones. Which will make those Zoom calls a little easier to bear.
No matter how many apps and online tools that are available out there, most of us fall back on a good ol’ fashioned white board at the end of the day. Hell, even the biggest companies have walls dedicated to white board usage. It’s probably something from our school days where we all desperately wanted to be called on to write on the board and show off during class. Either way, these are the most fun.
These are a must-have item for anyone who is on the phone for work. We cannot tell you how many times our headphones have been yanked out of our ears while trying to walk, talk, and do who knows what else at once. We recommend the AirPods Pro for their slightly softer touch in the ear.
Most entrepreneurs don’t just like a good business book, they love them. If they still have the energy at the end of the day – this is a book our team highly recommends. If they’ve already got it? Well, it’s probably all bent up and out of shape from overuse. A fresh copy will still go a long way.
Well, what are you waiting for? The world of gifting awaits.
