The “Love Local Employees’ Incentive Program is a way for you to reward and incentivize the individuals representing your company on a daily basis.
‘Love Local Employees’ is used as a(n) benefits package, incentive program, holiday bonus, gifting portal, and above all for employee retention and company moral.
‘Love Local Employees’ benefits hard working employees, AND the businesses kind enough to reward them.
The program consists of participating local businesses and their employees earning and spending local credit.
The ‘Love Local Employees’ platform currently has nearly 600 local users participating in the program, and is continuously growing.
We are here to aid in hiring, employee retention, marketing & spreading local love!

Register your business, and your employees with the ‘Love Local Employees’ Incentive Program!
You, and your employees will have individual accounts to house ‘Incentive Credit’.
These accounts are similar to a bank account, just with local spending credit instead of cash.
Each account has a personal log-in to access balances, shop the marketplace, and explore other local business participants!
Shop & Love Local!
The beauty of the ‘Love Local Employees’ program is you don’t have to dip into your cash budget for incentives, bonuses or benefits.
We will pre-purchase credit to be used at your business, which normally comes in the form of gift certificates. As an example, we will pre-purchase 20 gift certificates valued at $50 each, to be used at your business. This will give you $1000 in ‘Local Incentive Credit’.
These gift certificates will then be listed on our platform, along with the many other local business participants gift certificates. They are then purchased by other employees & members of the program.
This means, advertising for your business, and potential new customers!
It’s a win, win for businesses, and their employees!
You have complete control over what you would like to reward your employees.
If you choose to submit $1000 (20 x $50) in gift certificates to the program, you will have $1000 of ‘Local Incentive Credit’ to divvy up however you would like!
You can use it as you go for:
– Hiring Bonuses
– Wage Subsidy (ex. $2 extra an hour in Local Credit)
– Weekly or monthly Employee Incentives
– Birthday Bonuses
– Employee Benefits Package, with monthly deposits
– A Just Because Bonus…
It’s totally up to you!
Incentivized employees are generally happier, work harder, enjoy coming to work, have less absences, and are their employers loudest cheerleaders!
What business wouldn’t want happy, hard working employees greeting their customers and clients!?
Employees using ‘Incentive Credit’ for health purposes, entertainment, vehicle maintenance, date night, a spa day, veterinarian services, or carpet cleaning, gives them the opportunity to SAVE more of their hard earned pay cheques.
The ‘Love Local Employees’ program has participants like dentists, massage therapists, councilors, spa practitioners, restauranteurs, and wine tour companies that your employees can use to take care of their health, treat themselves and create a happy and healthy quality of life.
LoLo Loves Local also takes care of local employees by holding monthly giveaways to all participants of the ‘Love Local Employees’ Incentive Program.
Allow us to treat your staff, too!
The gift certificates you contributed in order to earn “incentive credit” will be available for purchase by other employees taking part in the program. This means new eyes seeing your business. and new customers walking through your doors!

*Incentive Credit can be used for what isn’t covered by your current benefits package.
Larger organizations can sometimes be looked past as “local” businesses due to their size, or because they are part of a franchise. By incorporating the ‘Love Local Employees’ Incentive Program, your business, and employees will be noted as local business supporters!
