Elevator pitch

We help companies engage and retain employees. Research shows that when it comes to satisfaction and loyalty, employees place higher value on “soft” factors, such as how much they enjoy their work, how connected they feel to the organisation and their relationship with their colleagues, than they do on “hard” factors like pay.

Employee loyalty is important because disloyal employees cost the company money. Not only that, but loyal employees are proven to be more likely to recommend the company and its products to friends, thereby increasing sales and profits!

Elevator pitch

A key way a company can influence its employees’ perception of the company, and increase their loyalty is through provision of fringe benefits. These can include anything from subsidized mobile phones, to car parking spaces and a workplace canteen.

Of these benefits, providing high-quality coffee demonstrates the highest impact at a relatively low cost. Our research shows that three quarters of employees think that providing high-quality coffee shows a company cares about its employees.

With Nespresso, you can be sure your employees appreciate the effort you’ve made to improve their day. Our brand is recognised by 9 out of 10 consumers and is synonymous with quality.

By providing Nespresso coffee to your employees, you are showing you value your people and pay attention to quality. With a small investment in an important detail, you can gain greater loyalty and more sustainable sales growth.

01 EMPLOYEE LOYALTY A TANGIBLE IMPACT ON COMPANY SUCCESS

Focus on employee loyalty to drive success

Employees are the core asset of a company

Recruiting and retaining the right people is key to company success

Companies are increasingly focusing on strategies to motivate employees to generate appreciation and loyalty

Focus on employee loyalty to drive success §  Employees are the core asset of a company and their attitude towards their

employer can have a significant impact on the company success.

§  Competition, regulations and laws force companies to constantly seek for financial optimization, recruitment and retaining talents becomes a critical aspect of the business.

§  To increase the employees motivation, appreciation and loyalty will have a direct impact on the companies results.

Talking points

Why is employee engagement so important? Ø  GFK/Bain study shows that on average, 40% of the

workforce feels unmotivated, doesn’t feel appreciated and are disloyal towards the company

Ø  These represents a huge cost and a loss of revenue for companies

Ø  The attitude of employees has a significant impact on company’s success.

Ø  This is proven by the so-called loyalty-effect calculated with the NPS (Bain & Co)

Ø  5-10% of direct and indirect HR costs are generated by disloyal and unmotivated employees.

Ø  The main cost drivers are voluntary turnover, presenteeism and absenteeism

Employee motivation and loyalty: high stakes §  A large proportion of employees are disengaged. This represents a cost to the

company.

Talking points

The cost of disloyal employees

§  It used to be a given that employees would stay with the same company for a large part of their careers. This is no longer the case, with many employees almost permanently on the look-out for the next opportunity.

§ Why should this matter to companies? Personnel costs represent one of the largest costs for a company. A study by international management consultancy Bain & Company shows that disloyal employees add up to 10% to overall personnel costs. This is not just about costs incurred in hiring and training new employees: demotivated employees are less productive and more likely to call in sick.

§  An improvement in employee loyalty therefore has a positive impact on the bottom line.

Talking points

Employee loyalty drives commercial success

§  The same study by Bain used quantitative research to calculate scores for employee loyalty and customer loyalty, then mapped the scores against company revenue growth. It found a notable correlation.

§  This is not surprising. Employee appreciation has a significant impact on motivation and loyalty

§  Employee loyalty has a direct impact on customer loyalty: loyal employees are more likely to recommend the company and its products to friends

§  Employee loyalty therefore has a significant impact on company success

02 WHY INVEST IN COFFEE? A POWERFUL AND COST-EFFECTIVE LEVER

Benefits rank among the top reasons to stay with a company §  Surprisingly, pay is not the top factor.

§  Some of these needs – how well the job fits with an employee’s life for example- depend on personal circumstances and the specific job performed by the employee.

§  But most factors cited by employees relate to a very simple concept: they like coming to work.

§  A logical conclusion of this is that if a company ensures its employees enjoy coming to work, those employees will be more likely to remain with the company

§  This chart highlights in brown the motivating factors that can be influenced by the policies of a central HR department.

Productive employees

Coffee: at the heart of the working day §  It’s hardly surprising that coffee is considered a key fringe benefit by

employees. More than 8 out of 10 employees consider their daily coffee break to be extremely important.

§  But these breaks are not just about relaxation: they play a pivotal role in the life of the company. Employees say their coffee breaks improve their efficiency. Not only this, but the 10 minutes are not “wasted” from the point of view of the employer, as employees generally discuss work matters during their break.

§  Coffee is a facilitator: by providing a reason for people to get together, it encourages discussions between people and breaks down barriers, whether hierarchical, or departmental.
