Select-A-Gift Print Based Incentive Programs

Depending on the goals of a company, incentive programs may be utilized to enhance performance in one area such as safety or sales. Alternatively, programs may be designed to focus on general employee performance and morale improvement and encompass a variety of different goals. Companies seeking to utilize a print-based incentive program in which there is minimal administrative requirement and reporting capabilities will find Select-A-Gift's Point Certificate Programs a useful set up.

Select-A-Gift Point Certificates

Customized certificates can be purchased in a variety of point denominations and awarded to participants who achieve program goals. Participants then save their point certificates until they have accrued enough points to order an item from the print or online reward catalog.

• Select-A-Gift utilizes the industry standard of a half cent (.005) per point
• Denominations of 1000, 5000, 10,000 and 20,000 points are available
• Point Certificates may be distributed in any frequency
• As recipients earn points they can select merchandise from the categories utilized in their program
• Point Certificates can be ordered on an as-needed basis
• Point Certificates can be redeemed online or by mail
• Orders for Point Certificates are charged an upfront processing fee per certificate
• Invoices will be generated for each item ordered as Point Certificates are redeemed

Point Certificates are utilized to ensure reward merchandise has high perceived value.  Given that tangible, non-cash incentives are more difficult to assign a price to, they have greater ambiguity and thus can be assigned a higher value than cash.  For example, a gift that costs $50 is worth 10,000 points, creating a greater perceived value.

Point Certificate Customization Features Point Certificates are customized with: Company name/program title Company logo Customized redemption website address Each Point Certificate is uniquely numbered Certificates each contain a barcode for authentication purposes Customization is completely complimentary

Customized Point Certificate Redemption Websites

Although Point Certificate programs are primarily print-based programs, many companies find it useful to incorporate a complimentary customized point redemption website into their program. Select-A-Gift will utilize the program's title, logo and any goals and criteria to create a site that is an effective addition to the program. A customized redemption website ensures that every participant has 24 hour access to the most up to date and relevant item information and allows Program Administrators to access order reports relevant to their program

• Select-A-Gift offers a complimentary customized website for point redemption.
• There is unlimited content on each customized website. Any or all program information may be included.
• Participants visit the web address printed on the front side of the certificate and enter the point value and unique number of each certificate. The site will tally the number of points available.
• An online reward catalog is included on each customized redemption site. Recipients may browse the available award merchandise and select one or a number of items totaling or less than the point amount they have earned. The online reward catalog contained within each site is continually updated with any additions, upgrades or item changes that may occur throughout the duration of the incentive program.

Communicating program information to the individuals eligible for participation is an important aspect of setting up an incentive program. Participants must understand how the program works and what goals must be achieved to earn rewards. An incentive program must be deemed worthwhile, fair and accessible by its participants in order to become an effective addition to an organization.

Select-A-Gift has developed a number of incentive program supplements to keep program information fresh in recipients' minds.
