  • BRAND TO CUSTOMER

    COMPANY TO EMPLOYEE

     

    Prizes, rewards, dreams & incentives with a feel good factor.

    We help to connect brand to customer & employer to employee by creating meaningful bespoke, targeted prizes, incentives & rewards. Our vision is to help you create inspired ideas which help to make the world a better place.

    Prizes & Winner Management

    With a feel good factor

    * Worldwide * Travel * Meaningful Experiences * Sporting * Food * Charity * Retreats

     

    Prizes are usually associated with brand giveaways in the form of competitions and prize draws. And when you've got it spot on, they'll provide a huge incentive for people to buy your product over and above another brand. Prize promotions create stand-out on shelf, online, in print and on air. Prizes can also be offered by businesses to their staff too, incentivising them to work better.

     

    Rewards & Incentives

    Positive people are infectious and produce better results

    Worldwide

     

    Reward and recognition programmes including web platforms and apps which we then fill with meaningful experiences and products. Utterly bespoke, utterly unique. We also run the Dream Machine, just ask us for more details.

     

    Dream Incentive Trips

    We create incredible, powerful global tailored programmes which align with your brand message and needs.

    Worldwide

     

    We create unique brand and employee travel programmes that align with your mission, messages and needs.  What we'd really love is to make your trip meaningful as well as memorable.  Let's inspire people to deepen their wisdom, wonder, compassion and resilience and use the experiences we create to inspire what they bring to life, work, and relationships amidst the myriad of changes, challenges and opportunities of these turbulent and rapidly shifting times.

     

    The Dream Machine

    Attracting & motivating exceptional talent is a game-changer

    As levels of engagement in the workplace have fallen spectacularly and are at their lowest ever, companies are facing a threat to their long term survival and their short term profits. No longer attracting and retaining the best people is a major issue. Our Dream Machine will help you to become a global leader in employee lifestyle design. It's a simple idea. We''ll give you a Dream Machine (this can be real or virtual) and when you hit target (you set whatever type of target you like), we'll pop a dream ball and make someones dream comes true. We believe that if you lead a business with your heart, it will be much stronger, profitable and happier. Ask us for details/a case study if you'd like to explore this simple, yet hugely powerful, idea.

  • PepsiCo Naked Powerful Smoothies Canada Adventure

    We have just arrived home from our wonderful Canada trip and just wanted to say a huge thank you. It all went so smoothly and was so well organised. We really couldn’t have wished for a better holiday. The boys loved it too! Kate Correal & Family

    P&G ASDA Lenor trip to Venice

     

    Just to say our heartiest thanks for a brilliant time in Venice. The hotel could not have been better situated, literally a road's width away from the bus and train stations. I'm still shaking my head at the price of a rail ticket into Venice Santa Lucia ……. 1 Euro 30 Cents !!! I didn't know such prices still existed. And they gave us a room six floors up so we could see for literally miles. I pondered life as I walked past the spot where I'd slept under the stars all those years ago. I said to Dawn, "a 4* hotel, spending money, fantastic weather, we are so, so lucky".

     

    This was such a lovely, generous prize. Nowadays it's accepted companies have to be cash conscience. We see so many competitions where the prize is for two nights. Three is a luxury but four nights is a rarity and very, very giving of the promoters. It allowed us to not just see Venice during the day and twice at night, but to travel up to Lido Di Jesolo and bask in the sunshine as well splash about in the Adriatic. Amazing for late October.

     

    Needless to say I want to thank the promoters and also pass on our gratitude for your own very special efforts in making this such a brilliant getaway. You always answered our queries with amazing punctuality and with such friendliness. We really appreciated the confidence we had in our dealings with you. Thanks you are a real star. Tony and Dawn ASDA Lenor

    PepsiCo Quaker Oats Florida

    We've arrived back in the UK and now at home adjusting . I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the hard work you put into this prize holiday for us and to say what a fantastic time we all had. The apartments were wonderful and our room was beyond reproach, geographically placed bang in the centre of all the popular attractions leading to an easy access to all the parks.

     

    The weather we were expecting (thunder, lightning, windy etc) was basically contained to one or two days and our trip to Kennedy Space Centre was not spoiled at all. It was one of our highlights. It was also nice to see a fellow prize winner and his family from Wales enjoying the day too. To sum up we had the time of our lives with wonderful memories for life made possible by Quaker oats and The happy prize co. We again would like to thank you both very much for making all of this possible for us all.

    Kevin & family

    M&M's LA

    Wow what can I say?! I had the most amazing time in LA. Thank you so so much to everyone for organising this trip of a lifetime. The hotel was gorgeous and right beside Universal. Los Angeles is out of this world and I will be definitely going back. Mr Yellow M&M was at the airport to greet me before my travels too :). Thanks so much again to all of you.

    McVities Round-The-World

    I'm gutted to be home. I want to go back. I've got the travelling bug now!

    Your effort and time and patience was outstanding. I know I'm not the easiest of people to deal with - you did a fantastic job. Emma

     

    Tropicana Santorini

    "Thank you very much for organising our Santorini trip. We have had a really lovely week and Rose Bay is a superb hotel. It was truly a prize (and holiday) to remember." Pauline

  • Anticipation Experience Memory

    Happiness is often the anticipation of an event

    or experience and a memory of it

    "Ask yourself whether you are happy, and you cease to be so"

    Philosopher - John Stuart Mill

     

    The meaning behind this quote shows us there is a paradox at the heart of happiness. We are actually hardwired to enjoy the anticipation of a joyous event, and savour the memory. And because of this, we believe it's built upon a three-act structure of anticipation, experience, and memory.

     

    • First it’s about creating anticipation, which is really strong—both from a psychological standpoint but also the anticipation of the experience. It goes back to our primitive skills of releasing dopamine. It’s our hunting skills. If we didn’t have this sense of anticipation, we would have starved to death a long time ago. Anticipation is extremely powerful. 
    • Then the experience itself is vitally important. You actually remember the high moment. 
    • Once you have a combination of anticipation and experience, the memory of it can remain for an incredibly long time. And during that time you'll speak to many, many people about your experience. Get it right and it lingers on and on. 

     

    So consider this. When you are working on your next campaign, remember that when you contribute to a person's memories, you have a fan. Perhaps for life....

    Sutton Community Farm

    We buy all our fruit and veg from this incredible community-owned farm whose purpose is to increase access to fresh, healthy, sustainable food and provide a shared space for people to cultivate skills, get exercise and make new friends.

    The Sussex Wildlife Trust

    We are based in Sussex and therefore pay close attention to how the countryside around us is treated and managed both now and in the future. Nature touches all our lives more deeply than we realise. Unfortunately, 60 per cent of our wildlife are in decline and 1 in 10 are heading for UK extinction. The Sussex Wildlife Trust is a conservation charity for everyone who cares about nature in Sussex. They focus on protecting the wonderfully rich natural life that is found across the county’s towns, countryside and coast. By working alongside local people, they create opportunities for us all to connect with nature, and for nature to thrive in even the most unlikely places. They make sure that future generations living in Sussex will be able to enjoy the sense of wonder and well-being that nature offers.

    Flying Seagulls Project

    After hearing the founder, Ash Perrin talk so passionately about their work, we just knew we had to help.

They work with widely varying groups in several countries to help bring smiles and happiness to people, whether as Clown Doctors for children undergoing difficult medical treatments or through arts, music and crafts workshops
