Why A Personalised Notebook Is The Perfect Client Gift To Give to Your Coaching And Mentoring Clients.
As a coach or mentor, you’re in the business of really focussing on the needs and development of your clients. A strong relationship and bond of trust is crucial for your work together. You and your client will spend time diving deep into anything that may be holding them back from achieving their goal.
As a stationery designer, I strongly believe that gifting a personalised notebook for your coaching clients to use as you work together will make for a fuller experience and enable you to do deep work together.
Hi, I’m Michaela and I make beautiful eco conscious hand stitched notebooks that I personalise on my vintage typewriter named Dorothy.
Why Personalisation Matters
You can show your coaching clients that you’ve taken the time to think about them as individuals and give a truly thoughtful and personal client gift as an aid to your work together.
Enhance Engagement and Motivation.
Your generous and thoughtful gift is an invitation to more deeply with your program. Clients are likely to be more motivated to jot down notes, set goals, and track progress when using something made specifically for them and specifically for the purpose of working with you.
Promotes Your Eco-Conscious And Thoughtful Values
By choosing an eco-friendly, handmade notebook as a client gift, you are also promoting values of sustainability and mindfulness. This aligns with your own values and also resonates with clients who are sensitive and care deeply about the environment. It's a subtle yet powerful way to communicate that you care about the planet too.
How To Use A Personalised Notebook In Your Coaching Sessions And Group Programs
Your First Session
Giving your new clients a personalised notebook in their first session with you will make a lasting impression. Showing immediately that you are a thoughtful and empathetic human will give new clients a greater feeling of ease and trust as you start to work together.
Milestone Celebrations
You could save your thoughtful gift for when your clients makes a specific breakthrough or reaches a milestone in their work with you. In this way, it serves as a reminder of the hard work they have put in to achieve this goal and a tangible reminder of their progress and yoru support.
End of Programme Gift
Giving your clients a thoughtful gift as they end their work with you, leaves a lasting impression and a way to remember their journey with you. You’ve no doubt done some deep work together and there will be more to come as your client leaves your coaching program. A personalised notebook will give them somewhere to write and work as they move forward without your constant guidance, but with your teachings firmly rooted in the way they now think about things
This is what Alison Maitland of Becoming International said about using personalised notebooks from Blue Stiggy with the women that she coaches in her women in leadership program.
“[https://becoming.international](https://becoming.international/)We’ve run the Becoming programme for 4 years now, and the women on our programme still keep their Becoming notebook from Blue Stiggy by their desk or near at hand.
Delegates use the notebook to capture all their thoughts and reflections as they work through the exercises in the programme. They love the personal nature of the notebook.
It’s a delight to work with Michaela and the service she provides..”
