According to Intellectual historian Peter Watson gift giving and long distance commerce dates back as far as 150,000 years ago. It originated with human communication in prehistoric times starting with bartering before the innovation of modern day currency.

So what is it about human beings that love gifts so much and like reciprocation? Whatever it is, its ingrained and a really grounded part of group dynamics and friendship forging, a tool of connection.

In our modern world of business ethos and trade and what can sometimes feel like a impersonal establishment through online shopping and a busy world it makes sense that perhaps more than ever gift giving should be a choice connection tool for employees, clients and associates in the business word. Trust and relationship in business is crucial and in some ways could be a lost artform if we don’t persist in building them, what better way than via the oldest way?- Giving a Gift. And what better gift than one of the oldest crafts in the world? Candle Making!
Harvard Business Review recently commented that business ideals of striving for more fulfilling and old fashioned powerful customer experience is on the increase, and are eager to build new communities, generating mutual value. Emotionally involved and engaged customers, clients and partners can achieve great returns for altruistic businesses such as reviews, testimonials, positive word of mouth- pretty much viral enthusiasm for your business or service. The same can be said for employees that are valued.

Showing heart in business is vital says Geelong Candle maker Kirsten Macdonald.
Her business Angel Sent Candles celebrates 10 years in business this year and she says their key focus is creating the perfect gift for individuals, clients and corporates.

“From design phase to completion we take a company’s profile and heart message and turn it into a beautiful Aromatherapy Gift that is loved.
Sparking people’s minds with inspiration through Candles and Aromatherapy as well as new and exciting designs is all part of tying in with the trend of Gift Gifting,” says Kirsten. “We have reports from small business right through to large National companies that this simple yet thought filled act has had remarkable positive feedback.”
