Baudville Backs Products with 30 Day Employee Morale Guarantee

Leading supplier of employee rewards aims to boost employee morale
Grand Rapids, MI – January 7, 2010 – The 2009 recession impacted employee morale and loyalty, and surveys show employees are looking to switch jobs when the economy recovers. To help employers retain talent, a Michigan-based employee recognition and award company is offering customers a risk-free opportunity to boost employee morale.

Baudville, a leading provider in day-to-day recognition and award solutions for the workplace, recently announced an Employee Morale Guarantee. The guarantee allows customers to use Baudville’s recognition products for 30 days, and if they don’t experience a rise in employee morale, they can return the product for a full refund.

“Over the years, we’ve learned that some managers are recognition skeptics. We want to give them a chance to experience first hand the impact of recognition– increased morale, higher engagement and ultimately improved company performance,” said Brad Darooge, Baudville President and CEO.

Baudville has always offered customers a 30-day money-back guarantee, a common feature among catalog and web retailers. The Employee Morale Guarantee expands that offer to cover both product quality and product effectiveness.

The Employee Morale Guarantee is being revealed to customers in Baudville’s January catalog alongside 142 new products, 3 new recognition themes and a new proprietary day-to-day recognition tool, the Pintastic Manager.

The new Pintastic Manager, a binder that contains 32 lapel pins and note cards, is similar to Baudville’s best-selling recognition tools, the Cheers Kit and Recognition Binder System. Each product equips managers to recognize with a handwritten note and memento. It’s a strategy that Baudville believes customers and employee recognition skeptics will find to be successful.

“In the end, it’s about helping managers understand that recognition products are tools that drive business performance,” said Darooge. “We strongly believe in the link between morale and performance, and we hope to help more people see it for themselves, risk-free.”

Baudville also provides support to make sure its products and customers’ employee recognition efforts are successful. The company regularly updates a recognition blog, hosts an online Recognition Resource Center, and distributes a monthly e-newsletter.
