Question
What kind of incentives have worked best for your company (or the one you worked for). What are the ones that might have worked short term but then leaded to worse results.
How do you set up incentives for non-sales people?
I'm interested in startup ad well as SME perspective. Any advice is much appreciated!
Answer
One of the best incentives for employees is recognition, reward them by communicating face-to-face about how great of a job they are doing. They will continue trying to please you. Another great incentive is to give them flexible hours. Other incentives that worked were giving employees prime parking, pizza parties, flip flop/jeans day, day off work pass and new office chair. Just be creative how you reward your employees and they will work hard. An incentive I don't recommend is cold hard cash.
