Best Year Ever Award Concept

For those of you sales leaders out there that are preparing to hold and run year-end meetings I wanted to share a concept we've had at the Results Group for a number of years... The Best Year Ever Award.

We give this award out each year to anyone in our company who earns the most money they ever had in selling (or any other position for that matter!) The great opportunity with this type of award is simple - everyone can WIN and you can have MULTIPLE winners. There will only be one top producer in a particular division, but with the BYE Award everyone on your sales team can win.

My goal is to have 50% or more of our sales team winning this trophy and I love presenting them along with Ron Marks to our people who continue to get better each year. Try it out - Best Year Ever Award.

Other awards we give out are the rookie of the year award for the best efforts of each person in their specific division who is in their first year of employment and our annual "wingman" of the year award. Typically these go to the sales people on our team that have contributed in some special way to the accomplishment of our corporate mission.

These awards are a great way to reward the team members that are establishing themselves as long term players but have yet to reach the top producer level of production.

These awards are easy to implement and easy to determine if they have been acheived - try them out!
