Probably the most famous incentive is the mouse-maze- cheese experiment where a mouse runs through a maze to find the cheese at its center. The experiment demonstrates that the mouse learns quickly to navigate the maze and remembers the path to the prize. To the mouse, the cheese is worth the trip; it plays for pay. If you have the opportunity to play for pay, here are some tips to help you achieve your goals.

Pay

Start at the end-game to make sure you understand the reward and that the reward is something that you want. For most people, money is a great reward and a small change in behavior for a monetary bonus is worth the effort.

For some people, non-monetary rewards are more meaningful like getting a promotion, 4 consecutive days off, or first-in-line for next month's shift selection. The reward must be clearly defined and easy to understand. If you don't understand exactly what the reward is, talk to whoever you need to, to learn more. You won't play if you don't understand the pay.

Play

You won't get the pay if you don't know how to play. Know the rules of the game so you can play to win. The rules need to be very clear and achievable. The rules need to be defined like the examples below:

If I work 3 night shifts this month, Then I will get an extra $15 per hour for every hour that I work

If I work between 5 and 8 shifts this month, Then I will get an extra $25 per shift for every shift that I work

In these examples, the rules are very clear and easy to achieve and the reward is known and desirable.

The best incentive is one that shows a clear path to the reward, not a maze that could take you to a dead-end. Here is an example of the worst kind of incentive:

If I get my documentation done in a timely manner
Then I will be eligible for a portion of the big pool of money that will be divvied up next year

It's hard to play this game because the rules are not well defined and may not be achievable. What is the documentation? What is a timely manner? How much is in that big pool of money. Exactly when is next year? And finally, how many players are there? If the documentation is novel-length and has to be done by the next shift every day for a year and the money at risk is $50,000.00 divided by 500 players, you may not be so motivated for that $100 reward ($65 after taxes) that you will see sometime in the future. It's just not worth it.

Master Your Incentive Plan

Consider yourself fortunate if you have a well-defined and rewarding incentive payment plan. You have the opportunity to work more efficiently, to earn more money, and to influence customer satisfaction through your own personal motivation.

Playing for pay is fun and can improve your whole relationship to w-o-r-k. Get started today to work your incentive plan to find the most direct path to that well-deserved cheese.

There are many promotional items a company may choose to advertise with an imprinted company name while providing a useful or comical item to employees and customers. It seems clever marketing firms can imprint or write on virtually anything you desire. A perhaps overlooked choice in the useful items category is promotional document bags. Document bags, portfolios or briefcases are a staple of modern business life and are seen everywhere professionals must carry papers to or from a meeting. The company name exposure doesn't stop in the workplace or downtown streets though, as many workers must take documents home for review and back to work. Travel to conferences may be lower now with virtual meetings and higher expenses, but business travel is alive and professional papers have to travel along.

The exposure of the imprinted company name or logo seems great with promo document bags, but what are the costs involved and can the items be tailored to various levels of style? They are easy to obtain in small or large quantities at reasonable costs. The more items purchased lowers the per copy price. Depending on the style and quality desired, the cost per bag could be very inexpensive. An important consideration for the total cost versus benefit of promotional document bags is the long lasting nature of the product. Unlike pens or key rings that are misplaced and lost constantly, the bags will be carefully watched to ensure the safety of the contents. Most of the products will be used for months or years instead of the days or weeks considered normal for pens.

The variety of styles, qualities, and functions available for these items is as varied as the workforce. If the product is targeted toward the average production worker, there are several alternatives with plastic or nylon construction that will serve well. At the executive or important customer level are bags made of leather and brass with superior quality and workmanship. The high quality bags are great for yearly awards of a “job well done” or to mark special deals completed. It is easy to personalize the products for a small number of recipients in addition to having the company name present.

More work is brought home by professionals all of the time and many times it is documents to review. Once the bag is home, a variety of uses may steal it away from the purely business life. They are perfect for taking coupons to the store, passports and maps on a trip, or just the newspaper to a local park. Many bags are designed to carry phones, keys and more with interior pockets, thus increasing the utility.

Another advantage of promotional document bags is the area available for imprinting with the message you want known all around. Basic bags will have two sides possible for marking and both larger than an average sheet of paper. Imprints can be made on one or both sides. The size allows larger or complex graphics more visibility and readability.
