Radio Day

In a nutshell

In January 2015 JAM launched
the UK’s first official National
Employee Motivation Day (EMD)

argos for business

We launched EMD to align our client – leading
provider of corporate motivation solutions,
Argos for Business (AfB) – with employee
motivation and reward processes

The challenge? AfB didn’t want this incredibly
successful campaign to be a ‘one hit wonder’,
and needed a way to refresh the campaign.

One year after launch, JAM was required to
build upon this key diary date, breathe new life
into the campaign and further position AfB as a
thought leader in employee rewards and
motivation sector.

the clever bit

We listened…

We worked with Opinion Matters to
establish different work personalities
(typologies) and how they contribute to a
team. We then conducted a nationwide
survey to establish the distribution of
work personality types (Captain
Questions, Independent Introverts, Big
Idea Bods etc) to inform the direction of
the campaign.
