Life can get really busy. It can sometimes be very difficult to keep up with the endless tasks and errands you have to complete on a daily basis. Throw in all the social events and family gatherings that you have to adhere to, and it can sometimes feel like an endless spiral of obligations and commitments. While there is nothing wrong with having a busy schedule and a filled-to-the-brim lifestyle, stresses can occur when it comes to remembering every single thing to ensure nothing is missed or forgotten. That’s where having your very own personalized calendar can become such a handy and helpful tool. 

Personalized calendars for the individual

The personal touch always adds a special element to any item, even if it’s something as mundane and standard as an organizational calendar. Personalized calendars don’t only provide a great practical tool to jot down the upcoming tasks and events of the month, but they bring with them excitement and tiny sparks of joy as you turn each calendar month to see what image is next. They are a great gift for a close friend, a missed colleague, or a tight-knit family that enjoys several joint activities together. 

These wall calendars can be personalized to one individual’s name with various backgrounds and images to represent a special memory for each month. So if your recipient’s birthday is in March, for example, having a birthday cake as the image for that month with their name imprinted onto it adds a very thoughtful and classy touch. You can include other images for the rest of the months that invoke a happy memory, event, or holiday that you may have experienced together during that particular month. 

Alternatively, if you are gifting a personalized calendar to a family, you can get each family member’s name printed on each month to make it a gift for the whole family. Each individual member will feel included and gifted. You can even go the extra mile and include any pet’s names in the calendar too! 

Personalized calendars for the team 

Keeping team morale and motivation up is a very important part of managing a workforce. Especially during this time of virtual working where going into the office to congregate and work together isn’t part of your daily routine anymore. There are several ways to keep efficiency and levels of productivity high within your employees, one of which is sending them personalized gifts and tools to help them feel remembered and appreciated. 

Sending each of your employees and colleagues a personalized calendar is a great way to keep their morale up and lift their spirits, especially as everyone is working separately in their own homes and may feel neglected or forgotten. You can also include your own team branding colors and logo on each personalized page to create a better team dynamic. These branded personalized calendars are also great to send to clients as a thank you or a simple happy hello. They can even be magnetized calendars and stuck on clients’ refrigerators so that your brand and company logo is also at the forefront of their mind and not easily forgotten.  Professional gifts don’t need to be anything extravagant, expensive, or over the top, a simple and practical item that has a personalized touch can prove to be way more invaluable and priceless. 

It is becoming increasingly clear and probable that working from home is here to stay and it will be the new norm for many workplaces going forward. With everything going virtual and all meetings, schedules, and reminders now being online, it can get quite overwhelming having to keep up with everything from behind a screen. Choosing to opt for a personalized calendar as a gift for your colleagues can break the monotony of constant screen time, and bring them back to basics with a good old fashioned paper calendar that isn’t filled with color-coordinated deadlines. Encourage them to only use this calendar to record and note down personal events and dates that are not work-related. This is sure to boost a bit of excitement and encourage them to do more extra-curricular activities outside of work, which can make all the difference to their well-being and mental health

Personalized calendars for the couple

Gifting newlywed or newly engaged couples can sometimes feel like an impossible task. It can be difficult finding a balance between practicality and sentimental value. You want to give them something that will practically help them and make their lives together that little bit easier, without it seeming too bland or boring of a gift. Well, look no further, as a personalized calendar provides just that. Every couple is excited to join their schedules together and jot down all the exciting social events they have coming up, such as joint family gatherings and close friends’ celebrations. 

A calendar gives them the opportunity to scribble down all of these upcoming events and get excited about them together. They can hang the calendar up in their common space to give them a daily reminder of that joyous event that is coming up. They can even use it to countdown to their own special day and cross off each day leading up to it to keep the momentum high! 

Add the personal touch by customizing each page to include pictures of the couple so that they can flick through each month and take a wonderful journey down memory lane. You can even include pictures of yourself or other friends with the couple to make it that bit more special. This is a gift that is sure to be appreciated and valued by any romantic couple. They are sure to keep it for years to come as a reminder of the wonderful year they spent together with all the joyous occasions that filled each month. 

A personalized calendar is a perfect gift to give to anyone, whether that be a close friend or family member, a colleague or professional team, or a newly married couple, it will be used and appreciated throughout the entire year.
