What are your clients supposed to do with your stamp?
They aren't designers.
Should have given them a bottle of wine instead.

I agree with newuser. I think the stamp is a dumb fucking idea.
- newuser0
A stamp is an okay idea. But it should have been something they could use like a pretty image.

Really... do they even fucking care?

Yes they care.
These were partly hand made by handicapped - brain damage trauma people from Center Korak - specially believe that giving work is far better than giving donation. Rest was done by local craftsmen, but it took as a few weeks to select wood and to make a retro looking stamp.
To answer the idea issues: have you ever given flowers to your girlfriend? The message is the same when you want to compliment your clients for past and future work. It is not important if they will use it...they will remember it. We went so far, that stamps are not even branded with our studio - the message is enough (also linked to my lecture a few months back). It goes beyond just a message on the stamp - it shows we are now moving towards good product design. The current response from our clients proved my thoughts.

"stamps are not even branded with our studio"
Yes they are - the text finishes with your domain.
That's the bit I particularly dislike, personally.

Christ, if I was your client, I would think I pay you too much if you can afford that stuff as gifts to all clients.

i like the idea of a stamp as a gift, but not sure the actual stamp message was so great.
i think i'd have made the stamp remnant something more useful for your clients, and then branded it with your company info on the top side. i.e.: perhaps some sort of office folder labeling for stamping files, etc...
but, if your clients were happy with it, that's important.

mug w/ logo, filled with custom printed M&M's, and holiday card. Easy and Cheesy, I know, but wish I had time to do more. That took only 2 hours to get done online :) and needed 100 of them. Folks seemed to love the M&M's (most people like chocolate). Think I'll prolly budget more next year (like iPad mini's with custom skins or something) but only send to the clients that use me a lot.

"sweet topshit"
Is that when you do a shit on top of the toilet seat instead of actually in the bowl?
