The benefits of incentive travel

Incentive travel brings a strong return on investment, whether that be for employees, partners, suppliers or customers. It helps to strengthen relationships in the workplace or work environment and encourages employee collaboration through fun, exciting and unforgettable experiences.

These imaginative trips are also great for boosting motivation and employee, supplier or customer loyalty, as they show how much your business values everyone who works with or for you and rewards their hard work.

Creating unforgettable trips for top performers isn’t just a ‘thank you’—it boosts morale and strengthens teams. And the memories made? They last a lifetime!

Nothing ever has to be off the shelf, as our travel management specialists can create bespoke trips that align with your company values and deliver the wow factor.

How to create an incentive programme

The most popular way of offering incentive programmes is to create tiers that correspond to the level of achievement or identify where there are specific performance or relationship objectives that need to be recognised. An incentive trips will always have some form of business element to it, ensuring that if it’s paid for it meets both a performance and educational objective alongside a fantastic experience.

It’s completely up to you how you design your incentive travel programme, but our venue experts will organise the journey for you right from the research and planning stage through to delivery and the event itself. Working both within the UK and globally, we offer guidance, support and ideas to make incentive programmes attractive and effective.

How is an incentive programme implemented?

In order to get the most out of your incentive travel programme, the team here at Good Travel Management can help you to design and deliver it to full effect. Here are the key stages involved in its implementation:

We’re passionate about helping our clients to organise meetings that are inviting, engaging and memorable, as this ensures that attendees contribute their thoughts and leave with a shared vision in their mind’s eye.

Our support can cover any and all areas involved in organising a meeting, which not only saves you time and brings complete reassurance but can also save you money thanks to our extensive network.

Set clear goals

What do you want to achieve from your incentive travel programme? Is it to attract and retain top talent? Reward top performers? A team building event? To acknowledge key partners or suppliers? To say thank you to top clients? Knowing the results you want to see will help you to design an appropriate reward.

Rules and rewards

It is important to be clear how someone might either be invited or, where relevant, win a place on an incentive trip and ensure that this also meets suitable guidelines surrounding what is appropriate, suitable, and relevant. If it’s for achieving top sales or targets, then ensure the parameters are clear and you communicate well and regularly. Make it something people strive to achieve.

Launch the programme

If it’s to achieve a goal, this is big and exciting news. If it’s to reward key partners or suppliers, ensure they know it’s a thank you and has a business element to it. Some businesses may hold launch events or incorporate them into a conference which then rewards employees, suppliers or clients who may be in attendance.

Deliver the experience

This is where we come into our own through our own experts and global partners. We source and deliver an incentive travel experience to leave a lasting impression, to reward key people and to motivate them as being valued and important. We’ll work with your events team, HR or People teams or whoever has responsibility to be an extension of your organisation, and can be there on the ground with you to ensure all the Is are dotted and Ts crossed.

Follow up and review

We’ll always follow up, analyse and gain feedback from both the organisers and the attendees. It’s important to continue to learn, collect ideas, and quite often the planning for another year or event starts before the last one has even finished. That may mean a visit to a future destination and another venue search. We are not partners for one-off events only, we are a long-term business partner to help you achieve your company’s objectives.
