SMM, along with our sister publication Incentive magazine, is a media partner of CorporateRewardsXchange.com. Otherwise known as CRE, this a cooperative effort of leading brands and incentive fulfillment companies to help organizations improve the efficiency, service, and economies of scale of their motivation and engagement programs. Incentive fulfillment companies that are members of the cooperative include Certif-A-Gift, Harco, Lapine, Partners for Incentives, Rewards Direct by Maritz, Rymax Marketing Services, and Quality Incentive Company.
CRE’s Universal Points Platform and Corporate Gifts Store enable incentive companies and end users to buy leading brand merchandise from their authorized fulfillment companies. A real-time inventory management system allows traditional points-based incentive/gift programs to ship rewards with a day or two of redemption—rather than weeks, as is currently the case with traditional drop-ship scenarios.
Access to CRE is available on a membership basis, much like that of leading shopping clubs, except that companies will have to qualify as incentive, reward, or corporate gift buyers. Members have the opportunity to take advantage of one-stop shopping with significant corporate discounts for merchandise, travel, and gift cards. To join, sign up here.
