Clearly no one seems to be in the mood to celebrate all that has happened to us this year. Businesses and employees are traumatized with the layoffs, closures, budget cutting and depression and anxiety abound in the workplace.
However, we
would suggest that this is not the time to skip that holiday celebration; in
fact it may be one of the best times ever to have one. Granted, budgets have been cut and you may
not be able to have the elaborate events of the past, but if there was ever a time
to thank your dedicated employees it is now.
If 2020 taught us one thing it’s
that our employees are tremendous people with big hearts and loyalty. Now is the time to tell them you appreciate
them.
Consider a
simple note from middle management or executives personalized to the employees
that speak to the things they have achieved, the hardships they have endured
and the obstacles they have overcome often doing things outside their job
descriptions to help keep the business going.
You might want to include with it some small token of thanks pertinent
to your particular business…you can find hundreds of logo merchandise ideas in
your ASI catalogs.
Also consider
bundling the ASI item with a gift card voucher for extra emphasis. Gift cards are shared with the family. Using a gift card voucher that gives your
employee the choice of hundreds of gift card brands, allows you to give one
gift and the employee gets something they want or need...a wide variety of
merchandise, entertainment, restaurants or grocery stores. If your employees are not in central
locations, issuing gift card vouchers can be done electronically with very
little effort on your part,
Say Thank You
and celebrate those who make a difference.
