At PerkSpot, we’re always trying to find new ways to make our discounts better, more convenient and more fun! One of these initiatives that we’ve just launched is our great Restaurant.com map. Now members of PerkSpot can search for their favorite restaurant and see if, for example, they can purchase a great $25 gift certificate for $10 at Restaurant.com. Or they can scan their zip code or neighborhood for new places that also offer discounts at Restaurant.com. It’s convenient and it makes PerkSpot a real resource!
For those of you wondering, Restaurant.com is a site that offers many different restaurant gift certificates at a bargain price. Just one of many conveniences that the PerkSpot employee discount program offers.

The guys over at the Freakonomics Blog were out to dinner recently, and their waitress kept trying to sell them artichoke dip for no discernible reason. That is, until they asked her why.
Turns out “the chef had created a new dessert (and she loves dessert). Whichever member of the wait staff sold the greatest number of artichoke dips… that night would collect a healthy portion of the new dessert for free as a reward.”
She was more motivated by the gift of dessert than by the restaurant’s prior attempt to drive sales by offering $100 in cash. It was the tailored benefit that appealed to her.
PerkSpot is home to a fair amoung of benefits that aren’t purely pecuniary, money driven. From deals on appliances, home furniture, to shoes, baby supplies, you name it — we’re providing a convenient service through our discount program and we’re facilitating an end product your employee really wants (a new washer dryer! New high heels! Diapers!) — it’s these benefits that are most compelling, even over cash. And it’s that personalized end product and feeling of peaceful satisfaction that we want to deliver your employees.
In times when salaries are unstable and workplace morale can be shifting daily (times are even uncertain for employee morale at Google, where they’ve developed an algorithm to determine employee unhappiness) – empower your human resources to cultivate an atmosphere where the employee deserves and receives benefits. Empower your human resources with PerkSpot.

As more and more companies are looking for ways to offer a personal and individualized new media solution to their employees, few know exactly how to provide it. Your company has email, has a website, maybe even an intranet, too. But in the face of cutting costs, how can you give your employees the added benefits that so-called “new media” can offer? And do you need to? You’re not a Google full of whippersnappers all under the age of 27, and you’re not trying to be. Just the same, according to the latest issue of Employee Benefit News :
While more Gen Y and Gen X people demand personalization than do older generations, this is by no means something just for the 20-somethings. CBS News reports baby boomers are more enthusiastic than younger Americans in using the Internet for health care, finances, government and religious information – all topics that demand a highly personalized experience. Boomers are more likely to look up health care information online, visit support groups for medical conditions and use the Internet for financial information and transactions than their younger counterparts.
PerkSpot has a unique place in the new media space – it stands directly on the unique line where the personalization younger generations crave and brass-tacks functionality Boomers seek come together. PerkSpot is an online solution that provides you a place to meet your employees where their needs converge, providing them added benefits that will improve their quality of life while improving your employee retention and the time efficiency of your Human Resources department. PerkSpot’s employee discount program is where everyone’s needs meet and are met.

We’re thrilled to have been mentioned in the most recent United Hemispheres Magazine article about perks on the job.
There are two ways to put money in your workers’ pockets: Take it out of yours, or help them save their own. Wegmans, a grocery store chain that’s perennially on Fortune’s list, gave out 10 percent food discounts at holiday time last year. Outfits like Chicago-based PerkSpot match up vendors offering discounts — on everything from restaurants to cell phone providers — with companies looking to beef up benefit packages. PerkSpot CEO Chris Hill says discount programs “soften the blow on employees” when other perks have to be sacrificed.
This relevant article points out just how effective employee perks are at keeping employee morale high and employee retention even higher. There are many different perks out there that are laid out in the article — way beyond offering the obvious free coffee. Still, this cultural shift is not just a product of what businessman and theorist Cam Marston has called “Millennials” – a new generation that has come to “expect” such benefits. With a platform like PerkSpot, these types of employee discount programs, perks, corporate benefits, voluntary benefits, rewards & recognition are easy to offer.
Perks help your company and your human resources department, no matter what generation they’re in.

…is directly tied to employee discount and voluntary benefits provider platforms like PerkSpot.
Ellen Gilmore, assistant director of employee engagement at the Harvard School of Public Health, defines engagement as,
“more than job satisfaction. She said: ‘It’s more about the level to which employees demonstrate commitment to their work. It’s about putting in the extra effort and caring about the quality of your work. Employees who are engaged understand how their work contributes to the bigger picture.’”
The ROI may not be evident in hard numbers, but an article on the topic in Employee Benefit News says that eventually, it will be.
“… experts say that (not having an employee benefits program) might cause a negative impact on customer satisfaction, employee loyalty and profitability.”
Employers without valid employee benefits program compromise the integrity and the staying power of the workplace, effectually saying to all your employees that they come last – that their commitment doesn’t matter. Your employees will leave you for greener pastures. And believe us. There are greener pastures.
We work with some of those green pastures.
Here are some rewards and recognition we’ve lined up for our employee benefit programs on PerkSpot:
One of the only places to get a 10% discount on anything anytime at Target.com.Our exclusive discount applies to other discounts on Target.com, sometimes resulting in savings up to 20-25%.
In addition to providing new deals on desktops, laptops and other electronics weekly, PerkSpot offers a 7% discount on top of generally advertised Dell pricing and promotions. Don’t forget to add the extras: for the first time ever, get an additional 7% off electronics and accessories.
Get 5% off to more than 40 popular vacation destinations including Las Vegas, Orlando, Los Angeles, Lake Tahoe, and many more. Southwest Airlines is the source for convenient, affordable vacation packages — saving you hundreds of dollars.
Offer your employees a discount program through PerkSpot. It will free up your Human Resources department to do work that can significantly impact your company — no longer will they have to waste time shuffling papers, photocopying this month’s discount flyer. PerkSpot makes it easy to show employees that they matter – that they do have a place in the big picture.

PerkSpot wants to assist your employee discount programs and voluntary benefits in being as green as you all can be. That’s why we’re offering great Earth Day discounts that keep not just the world green — but your wallet, too.
By using PerkSpot deals — and this is with or without those Earth Day Specials — not only are your employees saving money, but they’re eliminating some of needless paper waste of the world’s coupons and coupon clipping-past. Ever wonder where all those coupon inserts from your Sunday paper end up? The fact is, less than 5% end up being used. Of the approximately 310 billion coupons produced and inserted into your paper each year, only 7.7 billion are redeemed. That leaves 302.3 billion coupons left unused, and we did the math – about 560 million trees that have fallen just to make coupons that are never redeemed.
If employees see a deal that interests them, one click away is a customized rewards an recognition program through PerkSpot, available for both their favorite local stores and at national companies like Target and Best Buy. No more casting a large net, googling discounts, scouring the Sunday paper in the hopes of catching some deals – PerkSpot offers your human resources department the opportunity to give employees a way to search discounts in a convenient, greener way. A way that saves them time and buys the Earth a little more.
