Reaching the 'other 80%' with incentives

Article Abstract:

Companies can use incentives to motivate employees who do not belong to the sales force. The key is to identify factors such as productivity, quality and timeliness and evaluate them according to importance and value in attaining corporate or program objectives. When choosing a reward, it is important to offer something that employees could not usually afford to buy. Incentives must also be creative and memorable. It may be an opportunity to attend a football or basketball party or an all-expenses paid trip to an exotic destination.
