Retention Events
Recognition, appreciation and rewards help retain valuable people.
Replacing people can be costly, but showing them you care doesn't have to be expensive.
We're masters of the no-cost retention event.
While gratitude goes a long way toward keeping people happy, studies report that demonstrating appreciation is five times more effective than giving verbal thanks alone.
Our retention event can help you recognize contribution, show appreciation and reward loyalty in a truly effective and tangible way; we make it easy for you to give a valuable portrait gift to your employees, clients or residents without impacting your budget. We create an event to meet your business’ needs, while delivering a fun and fabulous photography studio experience at your location; we provide you with the gift portraits (valued at $50 - $100 in most studios) for you to give away, and we also provide you with our professional services and gift certificates at our expense, instead of yours.

Employee Appreciation & Retention Events are particularly successful for hospitals, medical centers, hotels, resorts, casinos, school districts, call centers, fulfillment centers and other businesses with large numbers of personnel.

Resident Appreciation & Retention Events work exceptionally well for large apartment communities as well as other residential and commercial properties. These events expand to include all employees, staff and vendors.
TESTIMONIALS:
"I was the first one in town to do a Resident Appreciation program [with Vision Events] in 1996. I’ve been offering my residents free portraits ever since, on every property I’ve managed. Property management companies like mine are always looking for ways to keep their residents happy. This program gives me a way to say 'thanks' to my residents without impacting my budget. Vision Events provides the gift certificate flyers that go out to every apartment and they bring a portable portrait studio to photograph the sittings. Talk about easy and convenient! The most important thing is that they make me look good, and I don’t mean just in pictures. They let everybody know that their gift is from me and that I’ve arranged for them to get their 70% discount on any extra pictures. Since they love their portraits and the whole thing was such a pleasant experience, they all thank me for thanking them!"

Client Appreciation & Retention Events also have two additional functions: these events provide an excellent icebreaker for requesting referrals and can also be used as a tool for your follow up calls or marketing to existing clients.
TESTIMONIALS:
"Want a free, easy way to reward your clients? Ask Vision Events to do a client appreciation event for you. They’ll brainstorm ideas with you, design your promotional materials (for free!) and then give you high-end portraits as gifts to give away. They’ll even do all the reminder phone calls, so you won’t have to. I’ve never heard of another photo or promo business doing anything like this. They're great with people and I can always trust their professionalism to reflect well on me and my company."
Nan Mackstaller, Real Estate Agent
"I’ve been offering my policy holders free family portraits for so many years that now they start calling me before the holidays to make sure they haven’t missed their invitation. Everybody enjoys this event. In this economy, I like being able to give people a gift that’s really worth something and they can actually use. Everybody likes a free gift! Vision Events provides the invitations, pro photographer and gift portraits. And everybody loves their portraits.
This is a good deal."
