ConnectRoot Now Caters to Corporate Gift Givers

NEW YORK - Dec. 9, 2013 - PRLog -- ConnectRoot is pleased to announce the launch of Holiday & Corporate Gift Connections, a single-click service that makes gift giving (or charitable giving in lieu of a gift) to corporate clients easier than ever during the busy holiday season.

“Our unique and specialized artisans offer Sweet and Savory Connections, Cheese and Specialty Products, and Corporate Customized Gifts,” explained Kelly Newsome, founder and president of the New Jersey-based networking source and assessment firm. ConnectRoot launched in October to make qualified referrals and manage relationships based on client needs throughout the financial services industry.

A list of talented artisans, including information about who they are and what they do, can be found on the Holiday & Corporate Gift Connections page on the ConnectRoot website (www.connectroot.com).

According to Newsome, tapping the resources of small “mom and pop” artisans is in keeping with ConnectRoot’s philosophy of helping smaller firms and freelancers reach beyond a local audience of potential clients. “ConnectRoot is proud to give a face to these entrepreneurs—artisans as well as graphic designers, sales reps, writers, management trainers and others on our Resource Partner directory—in an industry that may not otherwise benefit from their talents and experience,” Newsome said.

For those wishing to support a cause rather than send a gift, ConnectRoot has posted a list of non-profit organizations. “This aspect of Holiday & Corporate Gift Connections allows companies to ‘gift’ a donation to a worthy cause in a client’s name,” said Newsome.

“Holiday & Corporate Gift Connections listings—valuable at any time—will remain posted throughout the year, and like the Resource Partners directory will grow as new artisans join our team,” said Newsome.

Newsome has worked in the financial services industry for over a decade, with a focus on sales and business development. Over the years, she came to recognize the need for a single reliable source within financial services to serve as a conduit for introducing strategic problem-solving connections, and created ConnectRoot towards that end.
