Does your salesforce know you appreciate all their hard work and commitment to helping your organization meet and exceed its goals? Occasional shoutouts, thank yous, and gift cards are little ways to show them. But when they go all out, crush their goals, or you want to celebrate them in a big way, you should go above and beyond, too.
And one of the best ways to do that is with a heart-pounding warehouse dash.
What is a warehouse dash?
Imagine sprinting around a warehouse with towering racks full of anything you can imagine—sneakers, laptops, gas grills. And then picture snagging a cart and grabbing anything you want. A warehouse dash is a free shopping spree organizations use to reward top sales teams.
Warehouse dashes are typically adrenaline-filled races:
They reward and recognize sales team in a way that everyone enjoys
Sales teams get free stuff—either from keeping everything they snag or redeeming the items for cash
There's a set time frame to complete your dash
You can also customize incentives based on what your team wants. A quick team or company-wide survey asking how to celebrate them or what gifts matter most is a great way to tailor shopping sprees.
Why sales teams love warehouse dashes
What makes a good salesperson? Often, it’s their competitive spirit. What could be more competitive than racing down aisles, trying to grab the best products faster than anyone else on the team?
Warehouse dashes play into salespeople’s competitive nature and keep them motivated to keep closing deals. But they can also be a great way to break up a sales off-site. In between forecasting sales and planning for the future, host a rewarding warehouse dash.
Why should I have a warehouse dash?
Happy, healthy, and engaged employees are productive employees. Warehouse dashes go a long way in keeping employees happy and engaged so they can do their best work. This kind of reward also boosts employee morale and celebrates employees their way.
Another less obvious benefit is how warehouse dashes help you stand out as an employer. In the highly competitive world of talent acquisition, employees have near limitless options of where they work.
One way to get on their radar and beat out the competition is to show that you appreciate your employees. When existing employees can talk positively about how you treat them and the rewarding benefits, they can draw in talent who want to work for companies that care.
There are countless reasons to reward and recognize your employees. Go beyond standard gift cards and thank yous. Elevate your rewards and recognition program by hosting a warehouse dash for your sales team. Reach out, and we’ll help you get started.
