If anyone at all is reading this then you have truely found this post by accident. =)  I just had a thought about a comment that was made at one of my usual networking groups a few weeks ago.  The person, Barbara LaRock, noted that one should send out your corporate gifts on or around Thanksgiving.  The logic being that your gift will stand out and not get lost in the crowd of all the other gifts that business owners send and receive around Xmas time.
