golf with clients

A client golf outing isn’t just sales though. It provides a healthy change from the day to day intensity of work and stress. It’s an ideal way for the senior management to meet and greet new clients in a non-challenging environment, and to relate on a personal level.

Having appropriate gifts for participants is another way of demonstrating the company values participation. After the golf most teams will be invited to a dinner. A tombstone or deal toy to recognize a previous transaction is an excellent gift choice for this event.

The amount of deal toys a banker possesses is important as it is a reflection of the amount of successful deals they were part of closing. Many bankers build a ”Wall of Fame” showing off the history of their investment banking careers created out of Deal Toys.

Ocean Awards creates the most exclusive deal toys on the market. Crafted out of the finest materials – the deal toy you give will be a momento that your executive team will be proud to display for years to come.

The design and materials used make the deal toy a unique gift. The elegance of your deal toy will be a reflection of your business relationship. You can choose from acrylic, stone, crystal and wood combinations

Be sure you choose the right supplier. Choose Ocean Awards.

The world’s most successful organizations have learned that they must make a recognition event a priority in their business plan.

In the next few weeks we will feature blog posts with advice for how to create the most effective awards presentation.

Employee Recognition

Corporate Award Organization Tip #1:

Choosing the Awards Ceremony Presenter
The right person needs to make the awards presentation. It does not need to be the highest-level executive nor does he/she need to acknowledge the recipient. The presenter should be the highest-ranking manager who personally knows the employee and his or her accomplishments. This person also needs to be able to use stories and examples to evoke an emotion in the recipient as well as all employees in the organization.

Choose an award presenter who is:
• Senior managers that work directly with the recognized employee
• Comfortable speaking in front of an audience
• Able to connect the recognition with the employee behavior
• Polished manager and enthusiastic about their employees

Please follow our next blog for another tip to make your award event the best ever.

This is very important!

You should seriously ask around for recommendations from your friends and colleagues. Get a 2nd opinion and go to someone reputable and reliable. In the long run, quality of your product and uniqueness of the designs is what you are really paying for.

Also – be cautious! Some supplier will surprise you after the order is submitted with large art charges and shipping fees? Ocean Awards will not do so.

It has come to our attention that many awards companies hire a third party to do the designs – not done In-House, as we do here at Ocean Awards.  The result is that it takes longer to get small edits completed.  The process is complicated by the need to these changes with external companies.  In addition, this extra step must be accounted for in our competitors’ profit margin; an increase passed along to you.  Each edit occurrence can incur incremental costs to your project.  This will not happen with your Ocean Awards design project.

Also, you should be cautious with respect to shipping markups.  Some competitors see shipping costs as a profit center.  We recommend requiring your supplier use your company’s courier account if possible to ensure the charges are accurate. Always get a quote up front!

Quality! Don’t just go with the least expensive option.  Like the old saying goes…. “You get what you pay for” – this is true. Not all manufacturers have the same quality goals or controls as those implemented by Ocean Awards. Watch for different, less expensive material being utilized, printing that does not stand the test of time, etching that is not deep enough to hold paint, and 2nd quality materials. Be sure you trust your supplier!

Remember – your dealtoy is a reflection of your own quality.  It is what you choose to give to your client; how they will remember you and the transaction you worked on together. You also need to impress your senior management with your ability to get the best quality at the best price. This is your task.  A less that impressive dealtoy gift will reflect on you as well.

Ocean Awards’ Design Team is In House.  Therefore, our clients have direct access to our designers which results in quicker edits and no additional fees.

No charge for designs. 

Our team will ensure that the design will fully meet your expectations prior to entering the manufacturing process.  This is critically important since changes beyond this point require programming modifications which carry additional and considerable costs.

Ocean Awards has done tests and trials with dozens of manufacturers to ensure the quality of the product is one that we would be proud to present ourselves. Not all companies offering the same product line offer the same consistent workmanship.

So wisely choosing a reliable supplier, with a responsive in-house design team with an impeccable reputation is very important.  Ocean Awards will provide you with all of these attributes including awards design at no charge.

Gone are the cookie cutter deal toys! Today’s most impressive designs take a lot of thought and a talented design and manufacturing team.

You want to present your recipient with a deal toy that really represents the transaction that you just completed. A basic shaped crystal off the shelf will show your lack of creativity and thoughtfulness.  It’s time to get creative – who has time for that???

Now it is time to call upon the experts at Ocean Awards. Our company has built a team of designers that have been trained to understand the needs of the financial deal toys customer.

We start with research. It is important to fully understand the products, services and marketing strategy of the recipient. Each of your clients has a vision for their own brand and you need to give them something they will appreciate that matches who they are.

Think outside of the box. Design need to be unique and elegant. Something you are proud to give and the client happy to display in his/her office for years to come.  Deal toys can be crafted to become a piece of art. Using the right materials and the right design will give you end result you are looking for.

Quality Manufacturing is very important. The design may be pretty but if it falls apart in one week you will not be impressed. Design and manufacturing need to go hand-in-hand.

The design team at Ocean Awards works closely with the manufacturers. It is very important to understand the limitations of the machines and the variety of materials. Take a look at our portfolio to see samples of our unique designs.

Get the right team working on your deal toy project. Your senior management is looking to you to do your due diligence and to pick a designer that will deliver quality product and an impressive design. Ocean Awards is the right choice for your next deal toy.
