For example, you could send Koozies for the warmer months. They are great for the pool, picnics, and other summer activities. During the holiday season, think about sending gifts that are traditional to the season, like ornaments.

The sincerity behind the gift is what will make the most significant difference because it will remind your customers why they choose your insurance company in the first place. - Following Up with Your Clients –
When you follow up with your clients, check-in on your clients personally and business-wise, people like to know that the business that they work with cares about them.
