How Incentive Travel Motivates Millennials to Reach Your Goals

​If it’s true that the generation mix has significantly varied expectations, preferences and tastes, it could certainly have an impact on a company’s sales performance reward tactics, including incentive travel plans. Do Baby Boomer salespeople prefer incentive trips to Florida where they can lay on the beach and read Tom Clancy? Do Millennial salespeople just want to go somewhere exotic and Instagram every meal? We’ll attempt to answer these questions and more with a series of articles on incentive group travel and the generation mix. Our goal is to help event planners and sales leaders understand and leverage the ways incentive travel rewards uniquely motivate team members from each generation to achieve business and sales goals.

Let’s start with the youngest and fastest growing group in the generation mix: Millennials. Cynics define Millennials by their absorption in social media and selfies, but there’s a lot more to them than that. They’re the least prejudiced and most culturally aware generation today. They suffered through joining the workforce at a difficult time, during the economic downturn of the late 2000s. And their social media “obsession” can be reinterpreted as a love of communication, curiosity and a sense of connectedness with about the world around them.

What does this mean for sales incentive travel rewards and corporate event planning? It means that incentive group travel programs are extremely motivating to Millennials for the following reasons:

Sharing the Experience

It’s true that Millennials love social media and smartphones. Less valid is the belief that Millennials aren’t enjoying or paying attention to their life experiences due to their constant connectedness. According to a survey of Millennials and experiences:

78% would rather spend money on an experience than a thing

77% say their best memories come from experiences

72% want to increase their spending on experiences

69% say experiences make them feel more connected to the world

How Cyber Currency and Mobile Tech Impact Reward Programs

Steve Damerow, CEO of Atlanta-based incentives company Incentive Solutions, has been advising businesses on reward program and marketingstrategies for years. Many of his reward program recommendations are featured in various industry sources. Among the latest publications to feature his articles is The Wise Marketer, an online resource that regularly disseminates marketing insights, opinions and news. Damerow’s piece in The Wise Marketer is titled “Cyber Currencies Mean Instant Mobile Rewards” and focuses on how, by combining cyber rewards currencies and mobile technology, companies can create powerful and engaging new marketing possibilities.

In his article, Damerow cites the studies of MIT behavior economists Dan Ariely and James Heyman, who found that when people operate in a non-monetary or ‘social’ market, compensation is more fun and motivating than when they’re operating strictly within a monetary market. Their study on the reaction of participants to cash vs. non-cash prizes indicated that people were more driven to earn non-cash than cash rewards of the same value.”

Based on the appeal of non-cash rewards, Damerow recommends that companies use cyber currencies such as digital “points” in their reward programs. “For companies, it's more cost effective to invest in cyber currency reward systems than to simply dole out cash incentives, since cyber currency is more likely to motivate participants to work toward the prize, whether your goals are to increase sales, secure customer loyalty, gain market share or raise employee engagement.”

In addition to the “fun factor” of cyber currency, companies also benefit from the ability to brand their digital dollars, Damerow says. “Your currency being digital doesn't mean it can't be ‘minted’ with your logo or slogan. ‘Coin’ icons can be created, for instance, bearing whatever imagery you want. Make them look like decadent doubloons or…gold trophies. Those who earn your cyber currency will treasure that currency and, when it carries your corporate messaging or logo, they will come to value your brand, too.”

By allowing participants to access reward programs and cyber currency through mobile apps, companies can create an even more unique and contemporary reward experience. “Mobile app technology allows users to check their cyber currency balance, play games or participate in quizzes and surveys to earn more cyber currency, shop or create wishlists on online catalogs where they spend their cyber currency, even redeem cyber currency in participating vendor stores-all directly from their smartphones,” Damerow says.

The proliferation of mobile and digital technology has created interesting new possibilities in the worlds of marketing and reward programs. Damerow and his team at Incentive Solutions provide insights into reward program marketing strategies such as cyber currency adoption so that businesses can influence performances and excel in the marketplace.
