Does Incentive Travel motivate employees?

Imagine this. You are sitting on the beach, barefoot and toes in the sand. You are listening to the sounds of the waves crashing, enjoying the breeze with a cold tropical drink in your hand. You are happy. Really Happy. Your company has rewarded you with an incentive trip based on your performance. You have never been on a vacation like this, and you like it! You are happy, feeling blessed and rewarded and you definitely want to do it again! So what does that mean? That means you are going go back to work after this amazing vacation and work harder to meet and exceed those goals so you can do this again.

As an Employer, you can see how travel incentives are so enticing. Once you announce such an incentive to your employees, they can then start to imagine themselves in that situation, they begin to look forward to it and they start to work harder so they can obtain it.

Many of this nation's top companies use travel for meetings. Getting away together, as a company, to an off-site location creates bonds that don't occur on a day to day basis. This type of meetings leaves a lasting impression on the employees and leads to greater satisfaction with the company and their position within that company.

Travel incentives give the employee something that they not only want but that will create a life-long memory as well as a deeper loyalty to that company that will last longer than the incentive period. Giving cash just doesn't do that. Travel gives you a break from work, which everyone needs to "reload" while simultaneously rewarding you for your efforts. Win-win for all! Give us a call to find out how you can either start offering travel incentives to your employees or plan an off-site company meeting that can also provide many tax benefits.
