This has meant working with clients from the beginning of their incentive journey by assisting them with the strategic plan of their incentive program, customised design of the program and implementation of the same. We at AD+INC are also firm believers in the importance of providing comprehensive communications via digital and traditional methods to support the programs as this element is critical in the programs engagement and success. With over 20 years incentive industry knowledge I have found that companies that have never run an incentive program like to start with a base program to test it first. With this in mind AD+INC has developed motive8 an incentive software platform that allows companies to run standard programs and then upgrade to more complex programs or add additional services such as communications strategies as they require. The incentive industry is fast paced and constantly evolving which means I am constantly looking at ways that will provide the edge or create a difference to achieve a desired outcome. Although there is one constant with all incentive programs whether they are about increasing sales, improving customer service, engaging employees or increasing customer loyalty, they are ultimately all about changing behaviours. Change is difficult for anyone but given a clear path, sound reasoning, transparency and good communication AD+INC has achieved the desired change through well designed and communicated incentive programs that have created a win/win for all.My extensive knowledge and experience within the incentive industry provides AD+INC with the expertise to assist clients define the right incentive solution for them by starting with what their desired objective is and working backwards from there.
