The Best 12 Gifts for Entrepreneurs

Entrepreneurs may seem like people who are hard to buy for, but once you think about their lives a little, you’ll see just how easy it is. Today, entrepreneurs are always on-the-go and tied to an electronic device. With those two ideas in mind, it’s easy to come up with some amazing gift ideas, like those below. 

Personalized Gifts

There’s something about personalized gifts that make a gift that much more special. It shows that you put thought into the gift. If it’s something they can use, too, that’s even better. Think about things like journals, flasks, tumblers, or mugs.

Personalize your unique gifts with the recipient’s name, their favorite saying, or the name of their business. It’s a great way to show that you pay attention and care, while gifting something you know they can use.

Leather Notebooks

Entrepreneurs are always writing things down. Whether it’s great business ideas, a to-do list, or notes from a phone call, they always need paper. A nice leather or fancy notebook will be a well-received gift for any business owner. They are great to leave on their desks, in their cars, or carry around with them, so they can capture their great ideas as they come.

Bluetooth Headphones

A person can’t have too many headphones. I personally like to keep a pair everywhere I spend time, like next to my computer, in my car, and in my briefcase.

If you come across a great pair of Bluetooth headphones (bonus points if they’re noise-canceling headphones), you have a great gift for the entrepreneur in your life.

Pens

“Nice” pens are a highly coveted gift. You can get personalized pens with the recipient’s name or business name or just stick with basic designs. Pens aren’t something most people will splurge on for themselves, but love to receive. Plus it’s something you know they will use every day.

Laptop Bags

Everyone today carries a laptop or tablet if they own a business. A nice bag or carrying case can be very useful. Find bags or cases in fun colors or in a design you know the recipient loves. Make sure it has plenty of room for other items like pens, planners, and their smartphone, and you’ll give a gift that they can use for years to come. 

Audible Membership

Busy entrepreneurs are always on the go, which means they may not have a lot of time to sit down and read. But if they love reading and miss it, consider gifting an Audible membership. This way they can catch all their favorite books while on the go.

They can listen in the car, or anywhere they have their phone and an internet connection. It’s a great way to pass commuting time, to wind down at night, or to listen to while exercising.

Books About Business, Leadership, and Personal Growth

If your recipient loves reading (and has time) books about business ideas, leadership, and personal growth go far. Check out the hottest current books. Amazon always has featured books on their homepage or check out newest releases at your local Barnes and Noble. Even if you aren’t a business-minded person, it’s easy to see what books are trending right now.

Gift Card to a Coffee Shop

The entrepreneur in your life probably spends a lot of time at coffee shops. Just take a look around next time you’re in a Starbucks—it’s loaded with customers on their laptops. You can’t go wrong with a gift card to your recipient’s favorite coffee shop. Even if they take it to go, chances are the gift card will get them through some of those rough mornings when nothing but the best coffee will do.

Tile Mate to Prevent Lost Keys or Wallets

We’ve all lost our keys or wallet when we were in a rush to leave the house. But someone who’s constantly on the go may be even more prone to misplacing the essentials. The Tile Mate is the perfect gift. Just slip the tile on their keychain or in their wallet. When they can’t find the item, they flip on the app on their phone to search for it. 

It’s a lot like Find My iPhone, if you’re familiar. When activated, it makes a loud noise that’s easy to hear to locate the lost items. Now they won’t have any excuse to be late and it makes one of the best unique gifts.

Portable Chargers

Busy entrepreneurs always on the go often need a good charge. Losing battery is never a good feeling. Today you can find portable chargers in fun shapes and designs, making it a fun—yet useful—gift for the business person in your life.

Charging Cables or Cord Organizers

Everyone has electronics today and if they’re anything like me, they blow through charging cables. Having a few extras lying around or having a spare to throw in the car or in a briefcase is always a welcome idea because we all know the battery life on electronics is less than optimal.

Cord organizers also help keep all those crazy cords organized. Twisted cords become broken cords, so you’re giving two gifts in one – organization and preserving the lifetimes of their cords. 

Laptop Desk

If your recipient is always hunched over a computer or can’t seem to get comfortable working on the go, consider gifting a laptop desk. Today there are many options that are ergonomic and portable. Whether they work in bed, in the car, or while waiting for their kids to finish up soccer practice, a laptop desk is a great gift.

Make Gift-Giving Fun for the Entrepreneur in Your Life

Gift giving doesn’t have to be stressful. Your favorite entrepreneur has needs just like you and I. They use a lot of electronics, probably run on a lot of caffeine, and have amazing ideas that help make our lives better. If you can’t come up with a great gift idea, a gift card is always a go-to. Just think of what your recipient loves the most and you’re well on your way to finding the perfect gift.
