Best
Way to Get Ahead
at Work
Become a powerful source of information
by reading magazines, newspaper, and periodicals. Busy schedules can make it difficult for others to read as much as they would like. Sharing valuable information and critical clips with these people will help you gain the reputation of a well-informed and knowledgeable person, and thus more respect.
Start
Your Day by Tackling Your Toughest Task First
You will come in to the office knowing exactly how you will start the day and what you will do. And you will avoid the anticipation and anxiety associated with knowing there is a large task looming that you must handle later in the day.

WORDS OF WISDOM
How To Tell a Winner From a Loser
A winner says," Let's find out';
A loser says,' Nobody knows."
When a winner makes a mistake, he says, " I was wrong';
When a loser makes a mistake, he says,
" It wasn't my fault."
A winner goes through problem;
A loser goes around it, and never gets past it.
A winner makes commitments;
A loser makes promises.
A winner says, 'I am good, but not as good as I ought to be';
A loser says, I am not as bad as a lot of other people.'
A winner tries to learn from those who are superior to him;
A loser tries to tear down those who are
superior to him.
A winner says, 'There ought to be a better way to it;
A loser says, 'That's the way it's always been done here.

Be
Inventive with Incentives
|
Here are some tips for planning an effective incentive program:
Define your objectives: What, exactly, do you want to accomplish from the program?
Establish a budget: It's easy to go overboard with any program. Establish your budget as to how much you plan to invest into the program.
Define your audience: Clearly identify your target market. This way you can get something your audience will love and enjoy, thus helping your program achieve better results. Are you trying to motivate your sales people? Is it employees, or clients?
Evaluate the best incentive: Base your incentives on your target markets' tastes, your goal and budget, and try to be creative and different.
Investigate competitors: What incentives other companies are offering? Hopefully, your incentive program will look better and achieve better results in comparison.

Case history 1: Smart tradeshow handout helps a banking company gain more popularity
A banking company that provides home loans and other banking services, was exhibiting at a local trade show and had a number of sheets with information on their products that they wanted to hand out in a neat and professional manner. They decided to hand out an Underarm Portfolio to people who showed interest in their services.
After the show, the banking company was extremely pleased with the results of their handout and the success of the show. They were able to have a product to keep its giveaway neat, as well as have the case serve double duty when the recipients got home. The company had a logo, phone number and address printed on the portfolio, so it was handy for anybody to get in touch with them in the future. The cost of the product was low enough to hand out freely, looks were professional and the recipients were pleased. Very positive PR for the bank. An overall win-win situation.
Contact us for a sample of the Underarm Portfolio today and see how may it help you. |
