Not sure what to get? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered ?

THE GIFT OF TIME

Although not always considered, this is a GREAT way that is HIGHLY valued by employees in all fields. Here are some ways you can give the gift of time to your peeps:

Let them come in an hour late or leave an hour early one day.
Cover their shift or part of their shift so they can have an extra long break or lunch.
Give them a voucher for half-day off (or whole day if you can) for FREE! And remember, this doesn’t have to be an open season voucher – you can still set limits on when they can use it.

STRESS RELIEF

Let’s be honest, if you’ve got a great team, they’re working HARD for you. Show them that you want them to keep healthy and not stress too much over anything. Here are few ways to melt away those tense knots:

Hire a masseuse for the day to come give mini chair massages on a rotating basis to your staff (bonus points if you make the break room into a mini spa with aromatherapy, relaxing music, and fresh fruit and water).
Hire a yoga instructor to come in and either teach a group mini session or a meditation class.
If you’re ballin’ like that, TAKE them to a spa!?‍♂️?

A COMPANY DAY OUT

Company picnic/potluck where the boss grills up some goodies and the team shows off those tried and true recipes.
Team building activities such as a scavenger hunt or a bounce gym.

FOOD!

Need I say more?? There are so many ways you can treat your staff to some good old fashioned grub:

Set up bagels and breakfast snacks in the break room.
Have lunch catered!
Take them out for lunch or dinner.
Have a bar or station set up such as a yogurt parfait bar, taco bar, or sweets bar!

**PRO-TIP: Hire a food truck for an extra unique treat and fresh, hot food prepared to order! We know a few and can hook you up 😉

CERTIFICATES!

Reward certificates are just the thing! Sure, they take a little more time, but who wouldn’t love a little memento that says – “The Smiley Award” or “The Customer Whisperer”?? Not feeling too creative but love this idea? Here is a list of OVER 100 ideas!

GIFT CARDS

Who doesn’t like a little extra mullah in their pocket to splurge on themselves?! A simple and sincere hand-written note card with a gift card can go a long way to show your superstars how much you value their work 🙂
