‘Tis the season to plan ahead

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Sweaters are coming out, leaves are changing and suntans are fading. While summer is slipping away, Fall Fever is in full affect – and if you take advantage of everything this exciting season has to offer, the rewards will be immense.

When it comes to building an effective rewards and incentives program, timing is key.  Though temperatures are starting to drop, productivity is certainly on the rise. Employees are returning to work rejuvenated, inspired and focused on reaching their professional goals by year’s end. With a little planning and the help of Hbc Gift Cards, you’ll be able to provide just the right gift at just the right time.

One group that has a serious case of Fall Fever is event planners.  This group is feverishly planning corporate holiday parties, attending trade shows and coordinating speaking events. Always looking for new and exciting ways to add dimension, value and creativity to their programs, event planners have discovered a powerful cure for Fall Fever -  Hbc Gift Cards. They love the fact that they can add sponsors’ logos and imagery, and personalize each attendee’s gift card with a “thank you” message. “It is a promotional tool with double impact,” says Andrew Noonan, Hbc Gift Card program manager, “in that it is a powerful way for event planners to reinforce the theme of an event, and for sponsors to have a billboard with their brand identity in each attendee’s wallet”.  With over 1,000,000 products to choose from, recipients can splurge on fall luxuries as well as necessities from any of our 400 Hudson’s Bay Company family of stores coast to coast.

Fall Fever is in full force, and everyone from event planners and HR managers to business owners of all stripes and sizes can create a memorable, well thought out rewards and incentives program. With a little planning ahead, creating a satisfying rewards program will result in greater productivity and stronger business relationships by the time the end of the year arrives.  This is one Fever that everyone should have!
