Research continues to mount that money is not the primary motivator in the workplace — not even for salespeople. This is especially true once salespeople advance in their career and achieve a comfortable salary level through established clients and a solid commission-structured system.
One thing reps never overlook are incentives and recognition items that enhance their lives away from work. Valued incentives come at all price points and suit all interests. We have assembled a collection of new lifestyle incentives here.
Teleport charging station
The Smooth Trip teleport charging station accommodates phones up to 3 inches wide and provides a safe and portable place to charge a phone from any outlet. For use at home or while traveling, its sleek and contemporary design saves counter space while keeping cords neatly contained. The versatility doesn’t stop there — when not charging, it can be used as a phone stand or power cord holder. Lightweight and packable, it’s made from flexible silicone to easily tuck into a purse or luggage. For more details, contact George L. Cassius at Earth Gear Corp., at 718-338-0177 or email george@earthgear.org.
Nouveau
This elegant 30-inch diameter piece from Bulova’s Gallery Clock Collection features hand-applied crackled silver foil on its oversized dial and scalloped molded case to add a touch of magic to any setting. For more details about using this or other Bulova clocks in your next incentive or recognition program, contact Adrienne Forrest at Bulova Corporate Sales (BulovaCorporateSales.com) at 800‑228-5682 or email CorporateSales@Bulova.com.
Bluetooth speaker systems
Coby Bluetooth® speakers are available in a variety of styles and sizes, from convenient travel speakers to high-power statement speakers. Your top performers will appreciate the ability to throw Coby Bluetooth speakers in their bags to easily sync to their mobile devices when music needs extra volume at the beach, barbecue, picnic or hotel. Or your recognition item can allow them to enjoy music and movies with the deep bass and clear highs of a Coby Bluetooth speaker system designed for the home or office. For more details, call Craig Hassler at Coby USA (cobyusa.com) at 718-416-3300 or email craig_hassler@cobyusa.com.
Art for the table
The enchanting Edgey collection from Annieglass is the result of years of experimentation. Hammered jagged edges painted with 24k gold allow every tiny angle of the imperfect rim to create a dancing halo around each piece. Features a 13-inch pedestal stand and comes gift boxed for your reward recipients. For more details, contact Sue Threlkeld of MMSC Sales at sue.threlkeld@mmsc-sales.com.
Artistic hardside luggage
Your reward recipients will make a statement when they hit the road with artistic hardside luggage by one of the world’s top pop artists, Nelson De La Nuez. This 22-inch 4-wheeled carry-on travel from the Heys USA De La Nuez Collection is constructed of durable polycarbonate composite with a high-gloss finish. This unique juxtaposition of pop and surrealism of America’s rich culture and history combines it into an innovative, chic and sophisticated traveling piece. De La Nuez’s distinctive style is categorized as “Art on the Edge,” which is creating art on all sides of the canvas and thus making it a perfect synergistic application into Heys/Earth Gear products. For more information, call George L. Cassius at Heys/Earth Gear Corporation at 718‑338‑0177 or email george@earthgear.org.
The ultimate wood-fired grill
Your reward recipients can enjoy wood-fired grilled food while camping, tailgating or anywhere they want to tote the portable Cook-Air Grill. It’s two times stronger and five times faster than the traditional grill. Made of fine-quality stainless steel with a stainless steel cooking grid. It’s the most powerful portable grill on the market with its 65,000 BTU equivalent and its capability of reaching a temperature of 1,100 degrees F. Yet it can be used on any surface since the base remains cool. It doesn’t require any propane or explosive fuel — only wood. Works with 8 D batteries, the included 120v AC adaptor or with an automatic cigarette lighter adaptor. For more information, contact Cata Marketing, Inc., at info@cook-air.com or visit cook-air.com.
