'Tis the Season

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone! It can be a crazy time of year but I hope that you take the time to rejoice, enjoy your family, friends and count your blessings. I am sure if you look, you can find them everywhere. Do you have a job? Give thanks. A roof over your head, friends and family in your life? Give thanks. It doesn't always feel joyful when rushing around or missing those who are no longer here but please take the time to remember in good ways. Our team at W. M. Martin Advertising gives thanks to all of you who have touched us and trusted us to be your marketing partner(and hopefully we mean a little more than that too!). Have a peaceful and wonderful year's end and happy, safe new year. Look forward to hearing from you in 2012.

Incentives- What are they? Do they Work?

How does a company recognize it's best and most dedicated employees or top performers and what do they use? The cost of turn over is very high and morale can be low during these times of recession. So what is an employer to do??? 

Use incentives! Incentives are a way to say "thank you". 75% of companies that use incentives, use promotional products to achieve this type of recognition. The most popular items used include plaques, pins, wearables and nice pens. Another way to provide incentives to employees is through a gift selection program, where you pick the dollar value and we send either a link or paper catalog congratulating the employee for their achievement and allowing them to choose the award of their choice. 

There are many types of recognition programs including:
1. Years of Service
2. Sales Attainment and Exceeding 
3. Employee Referral Program
4. Teamwork programs

Human resource professionals are often the ones in charge of the programs specifically  to improve attendance, fitness, lower turn over and improve growth.

If you want to learn more about incentivesand how to use them, please contact your sales professional at W. M.Martin Advertising for more information.
