What we build

Four ways to motivate people. One way to measure it.

Every TIMBR program starts with one question: whose effort drives your revenue, and what would make them go further? Then we design, run and deliver the reward.

For the people who sell

Build Sales

Incentives that move your internal sales team and the outside sellers who carry your products.

Internal teams: reps, inside sales and account managers
External sellers: dealer, distributor and independent reps
President's Club and annual achievement trips
Quarterly contests and product launch pushes
Short spurt campaigns for a slow quarter
Tiers built so the middle performers stay in the race

Example program

A national lumber distributor's reps who reach 120% of their annual goal earn a place on a four-night group trip. Everyone above 100% earns points toward rewards of their choice.

For the companies that buy

Build Loyalty

Reward programs that give your customers a reason to buy more from you, and to keep coming back.

Points earned on every qualifying purchase
Tiered status for your largest accounts
Your own branded program website with an online catalog: merchandise, gift cards, experiences
Top-tier customer trips
Program rules, tracking and fulfillment handled
Flyers, emails and counter signage to promote it

How we've done it

For a building supplies retailer, each of the top 200+ Pro Customers received a personal stretch goal based on last year's purchases, a monthly statement showing progress, and a group trip for reaching it.

For bringing people together

Build Teams

Incentive trips, meetings and celebrations, planned and hosted from the first idea to the last toast.

Group incentive trips, domestic and international
Meetings, conferences and sales kickoffs
Holiday parties, galas and company milestones
Destination partnerships that open doors for our groups

From our history

Large-scale holiday celebrations for global technology and research companies, and a long-standing relationship with the city of Dublin that has welcomed TIMBR groups.

Build Results

Rewards are an investment. We set the goal before launch and report against it after.

Sales lift against a pre-program baseline
Participation across top, middle and new performers
Share of each customer's spending
Program cost as a percentage of new revenue

How it works

Blueprint. Build. Celebrate.

One partner from the first planning call through the final reward delivered.

STEP 1

Blueprint

We learn who you want to motivate, what behavior moves your revenue and what you can invest. Then we design the rules, tiers, rewards and budget.

STEP 2

Build

We launch the program, supply the communications, track results and keep participants engaged along the way.

STEP 3

Celebrate

We deliver the rewards, host the trips and events, and report the results so you can plan the next program with confidence.

Vetted hotels and transport

Every property, venue and transportation company is chosen and checked by TIMBR.

Privacy protected

Room details stay confidential and are never shared with other attendees.

Rewards that fit people's lives

Flexible dates, family options and alternatives for people who cannot travel.

The rewards menu

Rewards people will work for.

The right reward depends on your budget, your timeline and the people you want to reach. Start small or go big. Most programs combine several.

Build Results

Programs that pay for themselves.

Rewards are an investment. We set the goal before launch and report against it after: sales lift, participation, share of customer spending and program cost as a share of new revenue.
