Our Mission

Our mission is to help you get promoted…
…and become even more successful than you are now. PERIOD.

We accomplish this by guiding you through recognizing, motivating, and retaining your best employees. We want to help you reach heights you never thought were possible. Implementing a proven, affordable Employee Recognition Program is only the first step in the process. We both know that it’s rare for any manager to further their career without motivating, retaining, and promoting their key employees. It’s impossible to be successful without the hard work, loyal dedication, and support you receive from your team members on a daily basis. As it’s been said, “No man is an island”. I’m sure you’ll agree it’s easier to move your business forward with others’ help!

According to the Wall Street Journal, recognizing your employees is the single most important thing you can do to keep them around. Napoleon once said, “Men will go to their deaths for a ribbon”. Okay, so maybe you are not asking them to die for you, but I’m sure you do want them to always do their best. Our Employee Recognition Program helps you to accomplish your goals. Without the consistent recognition and motivation of your best employees, it will be quite difficult to achieve the employee retention goals you have set forth.

History

After spending years looking at what Employee Recognition Programs were available to managers across the country, we have taken the best of all our competitors, and created what we believe is the most amazing, comprehensive Employee Recognition Program available anywhere in the country! I know what you are thinking. “Wow, what an arrogant statement!” Well, just check out some of our KILLER TESTIMONIALS and see for yourself!

During our 18 years in business, with thousands and thousands of clients from all fifty states, we have constantly improved our program while keeping your investment to a minimum. In fact, the annual investment in our program has only increased by around 10%, totally, over the last 19 years! What else do you know of that has only gone up by 10% in price in the last 19 years? Seriously!

We’ve been able to accomplish this by continually improving our processes, investing thousands of dollars annually for employee training, upgrading to “cutting edge” technologies, and working with our suppliers to give you the best products available today. Based on the fact that we experience a 94.8% renewal rate of clients coming back to us year after year after year, we believe the evidence speaks for itself!

We are very proud to say that many of the nation’s largest and most well-respected businesses are among our clients. Some have even been with us our entire 19 years in business! Many managers of national real estate companies, shipping companies, retailers, and restaurant chains have credited some of their success to our Employee Recognition Programs. I’m also proud to say that they continue to come back to us again and again, year after year. It’s because they see the real value of using our program. See, when you do business with our company you not only get the best Customer Service in the industry, but you also have a Recognition Plaque Program made of the highest quality materials available. Our plaques are made of solid walnut and are laser engraved to ensure you are getting the highest quality product possible! We know you want to honor your employees with something they can be proud of.

High Quality

"The associates at Specialty Engraving are a delight to work with. I simply send a fax or make a quick phone call and our name plates arrive quickly, are always spelled correctly and are of high quality (the plaques as well). No matter what I need, I know that Specialty Engraving will take care of it. I have worked with you for years and hope to for years to come."

Program is Wonderful!!

"I think your program is wonderful! In this fast-paced restaurant, we get so caught up in the daily grind that we sometimes forget to thank those who make it all possible. The tangible thanks and the recognition that goes with it make all of this worthwhile."

-Crystal Boothe

Morale has gone up!

"Employee Recognition is an instrumental part of any business. It is important that employees know that they are doing a good job and that the managers show their appreciation through monthly Employee of the Month. Morale in my facility has gone way up since we started this program."
