The PFI Incentive Planning
Manual
The planning manual is a
comprehensive 59 page primer on how to build effective, results-drive
incentive and motivation programs. The manual clearly describes the
differences between an incentive and recognition and between sales and
employee incentives. You will find descriptions of a wide variety of
programs and program applications. You will also see useful
descriptions of the many types of incentive awards including their
strengths and weaknesses.
Probably the most
valuable aspect of the planning manual is the section that gives you a
step-by-step guide to building an incentive program, budgeting an
incentive program and writing a proposal to sell the program.
The Incentive Planning
Manual also includes a helpful section that provides rationale for the
use of merchandise incentives and the most frequently and successfully
used arguments against cash incentives.
Contact PFI for
Assistance
The PFI Incentive
Planning Manual is available upon request by calling 1-800-292-7371
