IESP PODCAST - LISTEN TO EPISODE 4
Motivation Insiders is a podcast that brings together incentive industry and behavioral science experts to share their insider knowledge. Created by the Incentive & Engagement Solution Providers (IESP) in collaboration with host Tim Houlihan, the founder and chief behavioral strategist of BehaviorAlchemy, each episode features experts who discuss different aspects of behavioral science and how you can use them to improve your incentive and recognition programs.

Measuring ROI is only one way to use data. The real power of data comes from a multi-dimensional approach. Lincoln Smith, IP, chief strategy officer, HMI Performance Incentives, shares how loyalty and incentive programs can be powerful tools to drive revenue when data is applied to program design and decision making in ways that build value into the relationships.

PPAI EXPO RECAP
Earlier this year PPAI held its Expo in Las Vegas, NV. IMA and IMRA had their information counter and the IMRA Lounge in the middle of the brand pavilion. This year, IMRA held a meet-up to promote their new branding and draw attention to the offerings of IMA and IMRA members. Many distributors stopped by the booth for information regarding the best way to contact members for corporate gifts and incentives. They were enthusiastic about the information available in the Incentive Resource Guide and felt it would help them source the incentives their customers were looking for.
