Case Studies

What did you set out to achieve with your campaign/scheme?

We set out to introduce new initiatives and work directly with Virgin Incentive to help us fill out our corporate work schedules and socials throughout the year.

What made you choose Virgin Incentives as your partner for this initiative?

We have a previous relationship with a CRM who outreached and then was handed over to Jack from Virgin Incentives over the last year. Jack has been extremely attentive in following up plans and always informing me of new available options and socials, including creating marketing packs with ranges of socials to show off on our calls.

How has our partnership helped bring success to your campaign or scheme?

Due to the spontaneous nature of our company, we have had difficulty actually booking in a Social but Jack has been extremely attentive and his ideas have been thoroughly well received within our company. This is why, although I’m moving onto a new role – my colleague Rosie will be taking my place to keep relationships with Virgin Incentives going in 2025 and further to continue to help us build some social ideas.

Would you recommend Virgin Incentives to others? If so, why?

We’d 1000% recommend Virgin Incentives to people at other companies and friends/relatives. The detail to care that Jack and Virgin Incentives has provided within our calls and the follow-up emails has always made us feel that we were never short for ideas and they were always open to enquiring for new socials and open to all discussion. Jack and the team at Virgin Incentives have been brilliant at maintaining client relations and we thoroughly look forward to the social ideas that Jack/VI and Rosie bring to the table at our company!

What did you set out to achieve with your campaign/scheme?

Our rewards scheme was designed to achieve several key objectives: to improve customer retention and foster loyalty across our client base, to drive sales, and to create a compelling incentive for customers to choose us over other suppliers in what is undoubtedly a challenging and competitive market. We wanted to build deeper relationships with our customers while giving them tangible reasons to stay engaged with our brand.

What made you choose Virgin Incentives as your partner for this initiative?

We chose to include Virgin Experiences as a central part of our rewards scheme because of their strong appeal and marketability. The experiences themselves made for stunning and eye-catching social media posts, providing us with fantastic content to share and helping us promote the scheme in a way that truly engaged our audience. Virgin Experiences offered us something truly different – a way to connect with our customers on a personal level. These experiences allowed us to be part of their lives outside of the typical business relationship, offering them something memorable and meaningful. They also created a great talking point for our sales team, who could engage customers with conversations that went beyond work, strengthening those relationships further.

How has our partnership helped bring success to your campaign or scheme?

Our partnership with Virgin Incentives has been instrumental in boosting customer engagement with our rewards scheme. It allowed us to deliver value in a way that was both cost-effective and impactful. The Virgin team, particularly Amy, made the entire process seamless and stress-free, enabling us to give back to our customers in a truly unique and memorable way. Their support and the quality of the experiences provided have been exceptional, and I can’t thank them enough for helping us make such a positive impact.

What did you set out to do?

We approached Virgin Incentives back in 2019, with the aim of rolling out a new reward and recognition scheme for our colleagues. We are a large Financial Technology company with colleagues across the UK, so we required a solution that would accommodate a wide variety of demographics. We wanted to focus on finding something that was versatile and aligned with our company values.

Why did you choose Virgin Incentives?

Virgin Incentives were able to set us up with access to their closed user Reward & Recognition Portal. This is a fantastic tool – it provides with private access to a huge range of cash vouchers and memorable experience days (3,000+ across the UK).

This self-sufficient and versatile approach to rewarding our colleagues meant we were able to schedule monthly winners; but most importantly, it allowed our colleagues to select exactly what they wanted to redeem in line with their own personal interests.

The Virgin Incentives portfolio of products focuses on colleagues being able to treat themselves and spend quality time with family and friends. It’s something we feel strongly about within our own company, so the platform felt very much aligned with our company goals and wellbeing targets.

How much of a success has it been? Did you achieve what you set out to?

It’s been a huge success, so much so that we used Virgin Incentives to organise our Christmas Gifting and now use the same Rewards Portal to recognise Long Service Awards. The flexibility of the portal allows us to simultaneously run multiple reward schemes in the same place, and colleagues can accumulate value to purchase higher ticket items.

Virgin Experience Days in particular are great for rewarding staff – their perceived value is much higher, and people love talking about them and sharing recommendations.

Additionally, we requested that Virgin Experience Days was added to our existing flexible benefit options to provide a more family focused and relatable option. Flexible benefits can be a bit serious at times, but this adds a real element of fun to our offering! 

How has your experience been working with the team at Virgin Incentives?

Partnering with Virgin Incentives has supported our employee lifecycle journey through several difficult times including COVID. The account management has been fantastic. Andy has always been on hand to support us, not only with running the scheme itself, but helping to look after our colleague’s post-purchase. They’ve been great not only in terms of flexibility, but also their willingness to accommodate extra requests we’ve had.

The relationship has been seamless for us. It provides peace of mind in an already busy role as a HR professional. It just makes our lives a lot easier!

Do you recommend working with Virgin Incentives?

100%! If you’re looking for a well-rounded, modern approach to rewarding your colleagues, we can’t recommend them enough.

The customer service is really efficient and helpful, they provided the gift cards within the timeline we needed and because of them we could also give a great experience to our winners. We will definitely be using Virgin Incentives again and I do recommend it to any company interested in raising their customer experience bar.

We’re extremely delighted to announce that we recently concluded our collaboration with Virgin Incentives. It was a fun-filled, engaging experience. The most exciting aspect of this association was Virgin’s incredible service delivery. The Virgin Incentives team over-delivered on their ‘peace of mind for your team and clients’ promise. This speaks volumes about their work ethic and generosity. That said, we recommend Virgin Incentives as a trustworthy rewards partner to organizations of all sizes.

As a known branded company, it always helps our profile working with quality companies such as Virgin Incentives. Virgin incentives are very professional, precise and a pleasure to work with. We look forward to a long working relationship. In today’s climate long-term, well-established companies help smaller companies like ourselves grow, and in return we help build up their client base.

UK Data House

Virgin Incentives is a great brand from a consumer and employer perspective, so we are proud to have them in our membership. The team are great communicators, committed to our cause and meet our ambitious deadlines! One of our favourite members!

I’d recommend Virgin Incentives as a rewards partner to other organisations as they have an array of offerings that are easily accessible and unique. People are always looking for ways to experience life and there is nothing better than giving a gift that has real meaning to that individual person to which they emotionally respond. An experience fits this bill.

The Gift Club

From when I first joined the company over 10 years ago, to when I started managing the Virgin account, I have not had anything but a great experience. More recently, through arguably the most difficult time of living and working, Virgin made it a seamless transition to having more “at home” experiences added in and available for our customers, which was a massive help with the pandemic in full effect. After this, our customers wanted to get back out and enjoy doing things again, and Virgin were – and still are – a huge part of this. We have always felt that an anniversary at work should be remembered by an experience, rather than an object to sit in a cupboard. These experiences are what we put forward to every client, and always what we offer for promotions and when clients want a one-off award. The level of experiences available is fantastic and a reason why our business with Virgin is in it’s best ever, and it only likely to grow.

OC Tanner

The Virgin Incentives team are really friendly – a pleasure to work with. The breadth of experiences available means there’s something for all kinds of people – and there’s definitely appetite for getting out of the office for team experiences this year.

PHA Group

‘We purchase Virgin Experience vouchers Ad Hoc for our employees so there might be a period when we order a lot and then nothing or just 1 or 2 for a few months, it never matters though, our BDE always responds quickly and organises the vouchers for us with a payment link. The vouchers are usually sent out the same day too which is great for us. Thanks to the excellent service, we will continue purchasing these vouchers for our employees. The huge offering of different experiences is obviously a massive bonus as well, something for everyone!’

Highfield Professional Solutions

Throughout the year we like to run various competitions and incentives to engage and excite our teams. Prizes need to be compelling and easy to award. We know our teams love to do things together, so gifting them a Virgin Gift Card gives them the flexibility to choose what they do. We have restaurants nationwide, so geographical flexibility is essential. The purchasing process is quick and easy and there’s always someone on hand to help with our specific needs.

Pizza Express

We work with Virgin Incentives for customer gifting and purchase both collection vouchers, gift cards and selected experiences. Virgin Incentives are a good fit for our market, they’re broad, UK wide choice and cover a wide demographic for different occasions. The success has been very promising so far, we expect sales to grow as we continue to.

Viing

We set out to find a gift for one of our long standing members of staff. We decided to partner with Virgin Incentives as they give the recipient the flexibility to choose their own experience whether it be a spa weekend or whatever they might want to book, so we purchased a Virgin Experience Days Gift Card for our team member and the gift went down extremely well.
