Todays Meeting

Today I attended a focus groom to aid the Upper Perkiomen Valley Chamber of Commerce in their strategic planning endeavors. I felt it was very productive and we got to make a cool advertisement for how we see the chamber in 2013! Check out the photo of the map and look forward to great things coming out of this chamber of other of our local chambers in the near future!

Why we blog

Bux-Mont Awards has a blog for a number of reasons... like to educate our customers on the many solutions offered to your recognition needs. (as seen in the hopefully somewhat regular, hopefully soon to be renamed Stuff we do that you may not know about or SWDTYMNKA posts) We are taking ideas for a new name for that column. Another reason we have this blog is to assist us in our mission of recognition. We are a recognition company whose goals aim to further the spread of quality recognition with their stakeholders. While this aim is why we offer a lot of engraved and digitally imprinted awards and trophies, we also realize that they aren't always the appropriate way to say "job well done." Sometimes all anyone is looking for is a pat on the back. Some times we aren't recognizing an achievement rather we are helping a company optimize their brand recognition through the use of promotional products or apparel. Sometimes we are helping youth sports teams with thei

New page added to our website

New Website

A new iteration of the website is out and it's one you will be happy with. Mind you it's just a start, but soon we will be updating and upgrading to better serve you. What we had, we didn't like, it was inconsistent, didn't serve your purpose and was intolerable. So we changed it. Suggestions, questions, comments and ideas are always welcome, as a matter of fact, we would love to hear them! Leave them in the comments. Bux-Mont Awards new website!

Stuff we do that you may not know about

Please know that we do engraving. We are more than just a trophy shop, though we are a provider of the highest quality recognition products known, we also engrave stuff. We engraved knives and flasks. We engrave wine and champagne glasses. We can also etch wine bottles. Please keep this in mind the next time you are in Sellersville and in need of a personalized gift for any occassion!

Summer is upon us

Let's not forget to get those kids to the pool! A great time is to be had by all when you visit your local pool, especially with these behemoths they are building these days. My local pool is a mini water park and is grandiose in design with even a lazy rizer and inner tubes! If you are hosting a pool party for your little ones birthday, remember Bux-Mont Awards when it comes to the party favors. Kids love contests, so much so that about the only the they love more ( accept for their awesome parents ) is winning a medal or trophy for their contests. Give the kids something to play with and brag about in their next party favors bag with custom medals from Bux-Mont Awards . These medals can be created to have whatever you want in them from a photo to custom text! At 4.50 / pc. they are very reasonable as well. Contact us for more information.

Earth day is everyday

I was just reading an article in a trade publication that dealt with ways to green your firm. The number two thing that was focused on was how your products are packaged. We utilize recycled boxes to pack our trophies as well as reusing old newspapers to keep them stable. This saves us quite a bit in costs, enabling us to keep our prices down at times when prices are rising! This is just one way Bux-Mont Awards is helping to green the planet. We also sell green promotional products... Got a way your office utilizes recycled materials in a creative way to help your businesses bottom line? Leave them in the comments.

Employee Motivation- Cash or non cash incentives

Employee motivation is a major factor that plays a vital role in the success and downfall of any organization. The key to employee motivation lies in appreciation, recognition, satisfaction, inspiration and compensation. Building Satisfaction There is an indisputable chain between satisfied, motivated employees, and satisfied customers. If you will focus on satisfaction of employees, it will motivate them and these motivated employees will satisfy your customers. Through Recognition Many people are hungry for genuine recognition than monetary benefit. Some people are motivated to grab an opportunity to get their name on the wall, receive a trophy, or get a certificate of appreciation by the company. It satisfies them with an "emotional recognition" for their deeds. Look for plans and schemes to increase employee motivation by recognizing excellence in the workplace. Set some target. Distribute awards for attendance records, best achiever or best performer. It is not inexpensi
