As you’re headed off to a gift show this next couple of months, think about this….

Those of us connected to the gift industry are privy to a lot of people’s celebrations—birthdays and bar mitzvahs, holidays and housewarmings. Pretty cool gig. You sell gifts. They give gifts. Voila!

Well, here’s your chance to give something special too…and it won’t cost you one penny more than you’re going to spend anyway. [click here to continue…]

If you think you know what the annual GFL bash is, well…toss those memories out the window. Tonight, a new chapter was written, and folks, it was fantabulous. “Stakes are High/Gift for Life Casino” rocked.

By 6:30, la.venue was jammed with familiar faces from the show, George Little Management, AmericasMart, DIFFA, and all imaginable segments of the gift industry. By 6:45, the music was pumping, people were laughing, and the tables were rolling as attendees ponied up and partied down. Three hours later, even the most subdued personalities morphed into extroverts on the dance floor amid floating trays of mini ice cream cones and feather-clad dancers. [click here to continue…]

Roll the dice

in Gift for Life, New York, NYIGF

stakes-are-highPlanning to attend NYIGF in January? Then keep Sunday, January 25th open, because there’s a heck of a great party on the horizon…the annual Gift for Life bash, this year under the new moniker “The Stakes are High.” This year’s a big one, partly because of our new affiliation with DIFFA (Design Industries Foundation Fighting Aids); partly because it’s our 17th anniversary…

…and partly because we’ve never had a casino night before, and if you’ve been to one lately, you know how nuts those are. (Word of warning: I am not, nor will I ever, be a professional gambler, as many who attended Casino Night at the GHTA conference will attest. The house, however, loves me.)

For more info, click here. The party starts at 6:00, runs ‘til 10:00, and promises to be a lively, rip roarin’ time.

This is one gamble that’s well worth taking. See you at the tables.
