MICHAEL C. FINA INTRODUCES ‘LIFESTYLES INSPIRATION,’ A NEWLY ENHANCED EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION PROGRAM
New Presentation Materials and an Exciting Array of New Merchandise Combine to Make the Program the Industry’s Most Popular
NEW YORK, NY (January 22, 2007)
— Michael C. Fina, a leading provider of worldwide corporate
employee recognition programs, today announced LifestylesINSPIRATION, a
totally revamped, newly enhanced recognition program for its
customers’ employees.
“We
are continuously expanding our One Source Total Recognition services
with an innovative suite of recognition solutions that work seamlessly
in today’s demanding business environment,” said
George Fina, president of Michael C. Fina. “Our
LifestylesINSPIRATION program is one of the tools we use to do
that,” Fina said.
“Our
Lifestyles recognition program has been in existence for over 20 years.
More than a recognition program, it’s a complete solution
that’s quick and easy to implement, execute, and monitor and
it makes the job of the workplace presenter easier than ever
before,” Fina said.
Every
three to four years Michael C. Fina updates its Lifestyles program with
a new design, new merchandise, and an expanded offering of Magic Box
presentation options. These options are designed specifically for early
recognition and they work in conjunction with completely web-based
recognition programs that no longer use printed gift catalogs.
Michael
C. Fina has made a commitment to invest and upgrade its recognition
programs so they can bring to their customers a fresh and timely
approach to the presentation process, as well as a new selection of
recognition gifts. All the gifts in the catalog are reviewed. Popular
items are retained and new items are added that reflect the latest
trends, colors and styles in the marketplace. In addition, new product
categories are added or expanded.
“We
expect the new LifestylesINSPIRATION program to be a hit with existing
customers and new clients alike as Michael C. Fina continues the
tradition of ‘Celebrating the
Individual,’” Fina added.
When
Michael C. Fina introduced the “Magic Box” to
employee recognition programs nearly twenty years ago, it set the
standard and changed the way corporations approached their recognition
process. Gone were the industry standard pins and tie-tacs. They were
replaced with a large selection of lifestyle-type gifts that employees
could choose from in an extensive Michael C. Fina awards catalog
contained in the Magic Box. The Magic Box process offers presenters an easy and effective tool for
recognition. It arrives on time before an anniversary, labeled for each
presentation. It enables managers or supervisors to honor employees in
front of their peers. And, because every employee knows that they will
receive one on their anniversary, it creates anticipation and goodwill
among the workforce.
There’s
a Magic Box in every price range, each containing a personalized
recognition certificate with frame, small gift with corporate symbol;
personalized letter on corporate letterhead signed by
company’s CEO, gift brochure with ordering instructions and a
presenter’s guide for making the presentation.
“The
beauty of the ‘box’ is that it changes with the
times,” said Fina. Today, the Michael C. Fina Magic
Box awards catalog contains 64 lifestyle items that appeal to a variety
of tastes and lifestyles. “From flat screen TVs and fishing
gear to elegant jewelry and golf clubs, there’s something for
everyone in the LifestylesINSPIRATION program,” added Fina.
The
Magic Box program was and still remains a consistent, customizable,
cost effective and easy-to-present employee recognition tool that puts
the presentation focus on the employee, not on the gift or company. In
fact, 90 percent of Michael C. Fina’s customers utilize a
Magic Box presentation, including dozens of Fortune 1000 companies
including IBM, UPS, Bank of America, Pfizer plus many others.
The
time-honored practice of recognizing a company’s employees
has changed considerably in recent years and today’s
recognition programs must be more flexible to accommodate how the rules
of employment have changed.
