Saymore Trophy Blog

Well, it has been a little while since I posted. This time of year gets a bit hectic in both business and personal lives.

I would like to thank all of our customers who continue to support our business. We do our best to offer engraving and personalized products in this typical off season for trophies. Our website continues to grow and change and bringing in orders from across the United States. In this economy you have to do many things, and offer many services, just to keep afloat. I am happy to see the Saymore trophy Facebook page doing well and am glad to see customers utilizing our 10% off facebook coupon.

2009 was an interesting year and we tried many new things. Some worked, some did not, but we are happy to see that we will enter 2010 in business. We are introducing some new programs, some new products, and some new services to help stimulate our trophy sales. We look forward to growing our relationships with our customers.

Thank you all.

From all of us at Saymore Trophy Company, have a happy and safe holiday season.

Sincerely,

Gregory Slossar, Owner

Tis the season! Well, here we are again, another year is almost complete and the holidays are here. We have all experienced the credit crunch and are all affected one way or another. It is during these difficult times that we tend to cut back, but we also spend more time thinking about that special gift. In years past, we may fill the stockings with lots of extras and buy a few too many gifts. During these difficult times you may think a business like ours may suffer from such a bad economy. But that is not necessarily the case. Like I already mentioned, people tend to spend extra time on special gifts. Also, we are in the forfront of offering reasonably priced personalized gifts.

Too often we are caught off guard by other engraving and gift companies. They sell you on a product and then add on all those extras. By the time you are done, that $45 clock is now $90.00.  We take pride in offering products at reasonable prices – with engraving included on most products. Why don’t we include engraving on all products? Well, in some rare cases we have decided that certain products are either not able to be engraved, or engraving is not necessary. You might still wonder what we can offer someone who is on a budget. Well, we have plenty of gifts available that can be purchased for under $20 – including engraving!

One of our most affordable and popular personalized gifts are engraved bookmarks. We also offer an assortment of personalized Christmas Tree Ornaments. And don’t forget, you don’t have to buy something from us to have it personalized. Have you purchased a new MP3 player for the one you loved? Bring it in and we will be happy to engrave initials or a special message, all for one low price.

Personalization adds a special touch that is unsurpassed. We are engraving experts and have engraved on numerous difficult items. There have been very few times in which we could not engrave a carry in item. So, this holiday season please help stimulate the economy by supporting your local businesses. We truly appreciate any orders during these economic times, and in return we will help you present that special message to the one you love.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Sincerely,

More than ever, businesses find themselves in a position to recognize those employees who strive for excellence. In this downturn economy, employees find themselves burdened with additional work and responsibilities. Employees may feel powerless with very little job openings. This feeling of being stuck does little good for businesses as they try to survive. There may be little room for additional funding for employees, such as raises or benefits; however, businesses can help regain their employees happiness and motivation through employee recognition programs.

Companies like Saymore trophy are in the business of recognizing others. Like other businesses, we too feel the effects of the economy. Businesses are cutting back anywhere they believe is not business essential. We continue to work with businesses to offer affordable employee recognition programs. We often cut costs in areas that have less of an impact on the final award. We must remember that it is more about the recognition than the actual award; however, a simple certificate may come across as a bit too cheap in the employees mind.

Personalized engraving has value automatically built in. Employees do not have to receive a fancy award, for the engraving is what counts. We have had businesses bring in their own products that they manufacture and we engraved it with their logo and a special message. These awards are both economical and thoughtful, and many times the employees appreciate something that has meaning to the workplace than just another trinket.

We have also found companies combining their award program with a perpetual plaque program. Perpetual plaques allow companies to update the names of the monthly award winner. Perpetual plaques also allow companies to extend the cost of the plaque over a year, since the engraving is done monthly.

In an effort to help businesses establish an employee recognition program, as well as help grow our business, Saymore Trophy has been offering affordable special employee recognition programs. Businesses interested in such a program should contact us.
