Incentives

At the heart of it, an incentive is a simple thing; it's knowing the right incentive for the right person at the right time that can be tricky.

We have the knowledge and experience needed for your incentive to be a huge success.

If you want to boost your turnover or encourage ongoing dealer loyalty to your product range, we can work with your sales and marketing team to devise, implement and fulfil web-based trade incentive programmes that are both aspirational and cost-effective.

These schemes typically reward channel partners with points for repeat sales of your products. The points can be redeemed online against thousands of exciting rewards.

We can supply the rewards and run the incentive scheme on your behalf.

Most of these tailor-made reward programmes can be self-financing – funded directly by the increased profit and turnover generated through highly motivated and incentivised dealers and channel partners.

As well as helping to strengthen your relationship with trade partners, these schemes may also improve your understanding of how and where your dealers sell your products.

Long service awards are the cornerstone of recognising your employees' commitment, loyalty and contribution to your organisation. But changing workforce demographics and career paths mean the structure of these schemes now requires fresh thinking.

It is no longer simply a case of presenting a gold watch, a carriage clock or a pen after 25 years of service, or when an employee is about to retire. These days, dedicated staff need to be rewarded after much shorter intervals, perhaps every five years. This means the perceived value of the reward has to reflect the individual's total length of service.

We can work with your HR team to develop flexible schemes that offer an outstanding choice of handpicked, inspirational products to ensure that valued employees can be justly rewarded at every stage in their career with your company.

Our long-service solution is designed to motivate, reward, and, in the long-term, reduce employee turnover by improving staff motivation.

Recognising and rewarding staff right across your organisation can help your business to improve in every department – and thus generate tangible business results.

Inspirational employee incentive schemes may also help in persuading potential staff to join your organisation – and can be a major factor in retaining existing staff.

We can work with your HR team to find innovative ways of inspiring your employees at every level to work harder, perform better and help drive the business forward.

Our staff recognition solution enables you to focus on rewarding individual achievement, thus forming a strong association between the work and the reward.

Our experience has shown that recognition schemes need to be carefully tailored to motivate each individual. That's why we offer a range of gifts that is broad enough to suit an entire workforce. And all of our incentives can be customised to make them relevant to each employee.

The effectiveness of a sales incentive scheme often depends on what you offer your sales team.

Non-cash rewards can be more motivational because there is very little 'trophy' value from money going into a bank account. An aspirational product, such as an LCD television, provides highly visible recognition for someone who has exceeded his or her sales target by the greatest amount.

Quite often, a variable reward strategy for different sales levels is most effective, rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

As the recognised market leader for the supply of aspirational sales incentives, our core range of over 10,000 products means we have something to reward any level of sales achievement – including higher accelerator schemes for out-performers.

We can work with your HR and sales departments to provide flexible rewards that will stimulate healthy competition between all types of sellers within your organisation – whilst also making the incentives as relevant as possible to each individual.

Research shows that the key to employees' satisfaction with a benefits package – and subsequently employee happiness – is offering the right set of benefits that meet their aspirations.

If you're looking for new ways of enhancing your employee benefits package to help retain your best people or to recruit the best new talent, offering one of our premium electrical products – such as an iPod or a Bose sound system – can add a classy touch.

It will certainly help to keep a smile on your employees' faces as they come to work each day.
