What is a reward and recognition program?
Learn how an awards program can reduce employee turnover, encourage desired behaviors, increase sales, celebrate traditions, commemorate events, appreciate customers, promote your brand AND improve your bottom line.
Smart HR departments understand the vital importance of employee recognition
More employees leave because of lack of appreciation than for lack of money
Recognition is vital for employee self-esteem
Psychologist Abraham Maslow proved that recognition is a vital requirement for human happiness and experienced HR staff understand that more employees leave through lack of appreciation or recognition than through for lack of money ….. and the reason is really interesting …. it is because money compensates it does not motivate: a cash bonus becomes an entitlement whereas a beautiful award remains as a symbol of a job well done.
Recognition awards are ways to mold employees towards desired corporate behaviors

In addition to reducing employee turnover, smart managers use an awards program to reinforce desired behaviors – like improving customer service, increasing productivity, or fostering innovation as with this prominent Tucson company (right/above) who used the traditional combination of polished walnut and beautiful crystal for their awards.

Customer Appreciation Awards
Residential Real Estate – Tucson, Arizona
Customer appreciation awards thank your customers for their business and also remind them that you are available to help them in the future.
Repeat business is particularly important in the residential real estate industry, where typical home owners re-locate and sell their houses on average, every seven years. So, to help real estate professionals, we again use our color crystal process to put a photo of the new home on a beautiful crystal plaque. After gifts like flowers have faded, this exquisite gift will memorialize the house at the time of purchase, and discreetly remind the grateful client of the real estate agent’s name.
