RECOGNITION WORKS!

We give an award to the top sales guy, to the person with 25 years of service, to the truck driver with 1 million miles without a chargeable accident. We believe in the power of recognition. The why we do it may seem obvious, but it is a lot more than that.

We use recognition to:

  • Create a culture within the company that affects every attitude.

  • Say thanks and applaud success.

  • Teach others what we as an organization want to achieve.

  • Increase retention of employees.

  • Support Mission and Values.

  • Engage employees.

  • Encourage loyalty.

  • Increase customer satisfaction.

  • In summation, we believe in using recognition everyday to improve the bottom line. If that's important to you, then we're speaking the same language. Come with us on this journey.

    On-The-Spot Recognition Programs: Instant Awards Points Cards

    Posted by Curt Denevan:

    Are you looking for ways of implementing an on-the-spot recognition program, but need an easy way to implement the program and still control the budget? Here you go!
    • Review your program goals and objectives.
    • Key in on a handful of meaningful targets that can be implemented.
    • Determine your budget.
    • Establish the timeline.
    • Prepare communications: announcement, tracking and follow up.
    • Order recognition cards in denominations that fit your budget.
    • When you catch someone doing something right, present them with a card!
    • Watch what happens next. The recipient can go to the website and cash in right away, or they can save them up and cash them in all at once.
    • Each card has a unique award code, unique to that card, so it can only be used once.
    • They have no expiration date nor additional fees and are available in denominations of $1, $3, $5, 10, $15, $20, 25, $50, $100.
    • Orders arrive in 10-14 business days.
    • Unused points are kept in the employee points account for future purchases.
    • Points cards are password protected for security.
    How can you make sure the program is successful?
    • Let them know what you are recognizing. Be specific. What they did to be recognized?
    • Connect their behavior to the organization's values and mission.
    • Recognize how the behavior represents the employee's best qualities, such as integrity, dedication, or accountability.


    Here are just a few reasons to recognize an employee on-the-spot with an Instant Award Points Card.
    • Always willing to help another employee
    • Taking initiative when needed
    • Making it happen
    • Stepping up and leading
