You know who they are. They’re the ones in your life that never stop. They hardly ever get to unplug due to the constant work needs, incessant monitoring, data analyzing and so on. You’re trying to find gifts this holiday season for a marketer. Whether looking for yourself or a loved one, anything on this list will guarantee a smile on one of these hard-workers faces!

  1. Sun Jar– $40 – If there’s one thing anyone that has to stay in the office past 5PM during daylight savings can tell you, it’s that they miss the SUN. Put your Sun Jar by a window during the day and once the sun sets, it will light up off of the solar charging . Not as good as the real thing, but hey, anything that mixes up the constant office fluorescent lighting is amazing.

QiStone+ is an elegant portable wireless charging battery that allows you to charge any Qi-enabled device on the go. The best part? It’s built with a USB port as well so you can charge multiple devices at once.

The Moment Elite does more than just tell time. Its sleek, stylish design is made for high wearing comfort and much more. It tracks steps, active minutes, calories burned, as well as your sleep. The integrated alarm function wakes you with gentle vibrations on your wrist, while the progress indicator shows you at just one glance how far you are from reaching your daily goal (like 10,000 steps, for instance). Another great feature? No charging necessary.

The Echo plays music as well as connects to any of your other devices via Bluetooth and offers Amazon Prime Music, TuneIn Radio, iHeartRadio, and Pandora. Keep doing what you’re doing instead of bothering with finding songs on your phone, since all you have to do is say “Alexa, play ___.” Alexa also can be a personal assistant, creating to-do lists, shopping lists, schedules, discover weather, traffic, etc. Also be sure to try out the IFTTT feature and SmartHome features. What’s up Siri?!?

So yeah, sometimes we forget where we put things… like our phones…and keys…and wallets… and cars… Tile helps us out. The tiny Bluetooth tracker helps keep our lives in order.

It also takes an instant measurement of heart rate, temperature, and CO2 monitoring. All marketers know that data and Analytics are the most important thing when you’re trying to track results, so why not apply this to your health goals?

With this smart notebook, you can watch your hand drawn or written pieces instantly transform into workable digital files. Sweet!

Glider Gloves: Urban Style Touchscreen Gloves – $25 – The Urban style Glider Gloves are low profile, light weight, and slim fitting gloves that allow you to work your smartphone touchscreen without removing your gloves. They provide warmth and protection for shorter periods of time outdoors and offer unbeatable touch accuracy and dexterity for easy typing and multi-touch gestures.

These gleaming oval cufflinks hold 2GB USB Flash drive in one cufflink stores digital files, a Mini router in second cufflink creates Wi-Fi hotspot, and a Wi-Fi range of 150′. Just download the accompanying software onto an Internet-connected host computer, then plug the hotspot cufflink into the computer’s USB port. You’ll also have access to the host computer’s media servers. Perfect for clandestine meetings, covert ops–or avoiding those hotel Wi-Fi fees.

Another plus, you sleep better!

VR will continue to grow, so get familiar with it now! The Gear VR offers immersive viewing in 360 degree format, games and apps, Netflix, hulu, and more! The only downside is it is only compatible with Samsung Galaxy phones… womp, womp.

And the Siri Remote with Touch surface takes the effort out of searching through all these apps to find something great to watch. In addition, the App Store brings games and apps to your television with big experiences created specifically for the living room.
