- Recognition
Giving custom plaques as a reward for a job well done makes the recipient of the gift feel recognized. In big companies, especially, giving employees custom plaques makes them feel recognized in a place crowded by many employees. Giving a custom plaque will help them feel recognized and it’ll be more special than getting a random on-the-shelf gift. Custom plaques are heirlooms since they contain the individual’s name, and thus they cannot be transferred to another person.
It remains in their possession for the rest of their lives, leaving them remembered by their company and the peers. A custom plaque will also encourage their performance since they have been individually appreciated. Custom plaques can also be rewarded to graduates and other scholars when they achieve their goal. Since it is a custom gift, it will feel original both to the recipient of the gift and for those who will be witnessing the presentation of the award.
- Motivation
Custom plaques, when gifted for exceptional performance, motivate the recipient to continue with the hard work they had been putting in their work. Compared to other methods of gifting, be they monetary or otherwise, custom plaques have a sense of individuality and thought, thus are more appreciated by the recipients. The thought of an employee in a large conglomerate being recognized by their seniors for a job well done makes the employee feel special and thus they put even more effort in their work for more recognition by the management.
They may also put more effort in order to increase their chances of promotion. The colleagues of the rewarded employee will also work hard to increase their chances of being recognized. This competition eventually leads to better company performance. They also encourage other colleagues to put more effort in their duties as they look forward to getting their own custom plaques that they can be proud of. Custom plaques also give the recipient a sense of pride as they can show them off to their friends and family even after they are retired or done studying.
- It is a profitable investment
Companies that reward their employees with custom plaques in place of other forms of rewards tend to do better than their counterparts. This is because custom plaques motivate the recipients and their colleagues to work extra hard in hope to get one. Majority of these employees also work for long at these companies as they look forward to these rewards. Also, compared to monetary rewards which are not that close and personal, custom plaques give the recipients a sense of belonging to the company. They will, therefore, have more loyalty to the company.
Custom plaques are also rather cheaper than dishing out monetary gifts. When a company orders creation of several plaques in bulk, it saves them more money than giving bonuses to exceptional employees. Plaques will also be offered to a few employees, the best of the best, thus the company will perform better as the employees fight for recognition. Thus this will increase the profitability of the company, owing to a plaque gifting system.
