Tom on "Practicing what we preach"
“…our internal wellness, loyalty, peer-to-peer, years-of-service, and safety incentive programs serve as some of our best case studies. They demonstrate and substantiate increased revenues, improved productivity, and strengthen overall employee motivation. Many of these programs are immediately tested and implemented into our client base.”
Tom on Service
“…a successful rewards program must get things done NOW. At All Star, we take great pride in accomplishing 98% of customer award shipments within 48 hours – and all stocked merchandise shipments within 24 hours. We measure success by exceeding our customers’ expectations, not just meeting them.”
