TEAM APPRECIATION
Stop + Celebrate Your Leasing Pro
Budget: $$
Effort Required: 💪
Impact:😃😃😃😃
Today’s small action is about celebrating while it’s still fresh.
Not later. Not next week. Right now.
The Idea:
You notice your leasing agent crushing it in a tough market. You stop what you’re doing. You run to Trader Joe’s. You grab flowers, a card, and some chocolate. You make a big deal out of their win.
And that moment? It reminds them why they love what they do.
Pro Tip:
The key isn’t waiting for a milestone. It’s recognizing momentum. Reward fast. Reward often. That’s how you build confident, motivated teams in a challenging market.

Bad Example: Happy Employee Appreciation Day! Thanks for all you do. -BOSS
Good Example: Happy Employee Appreciation Day, Lauren! I don’t know how this team would survive without you. I love how you always take time to help everyone out with whatever they are struggling with at the time. You never seem too busy to help! Your efforts haven’t gone unnoticed. Thank you for all you do! - [Insert Your Name]
Let employees come in a little late, leave a little early or take an extra long lunch. If you have a large team, choose a different option for all to keep your office fully staffed.
Have a little fun with an after-work event. It’s fun to go bowling, mini golf, or painting with a twist as a team!
