People always say, 'Oh, where'd you get that?' 'Oh, that's a season ticket gift.

My favorite stuff are the pickleball paddles. It's nice because you don't have to pay for them — they're expensive.

Back in the day, you'd get this big booklet of paper tickets and you'd tear them out. Now, it's all automated and it's simple. It came straight to my house, and it was just first class.

It's definitely a lot easier because you don't have to carry your gift around with you at the whole game or take a special trip down there. You just order your award and then it comes in the mail.

Prior to Awardco, our process was clunky. Our reps were spending hundreds of hours stacking gifts, delivering them, packaging them. Now that we've been using Awardco, they've been able to focus their [time] elsewhere.

Through Awardco, we've been able to create an offer where they can go on and pick from a variety of gifts. It's super convenient that way. These gifts are exclusive. It's created just for them. We've done sweatshirts, bags, quarter zips, backpacks… we've done pickleball paddles.
