Designed for Response

Piggy Bank

Although piggy banks are a popular give away, this piggy has found it’s way to numerous office desks. A reminder in business that money saved is money earned with MGPS.

Treasure Chest

This incentive showed the client that their financial advisor ‘cared’ is ‘listening’ and it prompted many responses to invest more. This chest reveals a small bag of gold chocolate bars and a survey titled “what’s your pot of gold?’.

The Plant

Our plant has been the best yet. To introduce ourselves we have been stopping by companies we think could use our service and leaving this cheerful gift for them.

Weeks later - to our pleasant surprise we’ve discovered they are still sitting on the front desk.







Calendars

Do you get a thank you phone call from the calendar you send to clients? Our does.

Our themed calendars have always been thought provoking and very timely to life events. Designed for response – each year this calendar has always prompted phone calls from clients when they receive it in the mail.
