Style Testing

In the current crazy employee hiring and retaining climate, little things to boost morale and culture can go a long way. That’s why Employee Appreciation Day may be more important in 2023 than ever before.

On January 8, 2021, the Small Business Administration (SBA) released a procedural notice to provide guidance on the recent changes to how the Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) Advances impact PPP loan forgiveness. Prior to the passage of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (the Act), discussed in PPP Update #19, PPP borrowers were required to reduce any requested PPP loan forgiveness by any EIDL Advances received. After passage of the Act, EIDL Advances no longer reduce a borrower’s final forgiveness amount.

1. Tie the goal to something truly important to you as a person. (Spoiler alert: It isn’t money.) Each of us has at least one unique life goal that means a great deal to us on a deeply personal level. I don’t know what that goal is for you: it might be a trip around the world, a significant charitable contribution that helps you honor the memory and legacy of a loved one, a fabulous new present you and your significant other can enjoy together all year long – something you know will bring you closer together. The possibilities are endless. I do know, though, that we all work harder for our personal goals than we work for somebody else’s. This year, let’s make a change. Instead of setting a goal based on depositing a certain amount of money, instead of setting a goal based on attaining a business goal that someone else has set for you, why not take the time to identify a goal that motivates you personally in a profound way? Then you can find a way to connect that powerful personal goal to a financial or business goal. For instance: Don’t just make the goal to earn your bonus; make the goal to earn the bonus so you can take that trip around the world that’s on your bucket list.
2. Take a well-rounded approach. There’s nothing wrong with financial goals, of course. All the same, it’s important to set goals in several different areas of your life. Think of multiple goals that will motivate you to change the status quo for the better in terms of sales, health, spirituality, work, creativity, friends, mindset, and family. And once you have a sales goal that motivates you, you will also want to consider setting sub-goals that support your larger sales goal (such as daily behavioral and activity goals, account management goals, upselling goals, and cross-selling goals). Do this for each of the categories. Take some time to create a list of goals that goes both wide and deep!
3. Once you’ve set a specific goal, break it into actionable, measurable chunks. Breaking the goal into smaller numbers allows you to identify the activities necessary to achieve it and track your progress toward attaining it. For example: To make my bonus, I want to secure twelve new clients, each with an average sales of $X. That means I need three such clients each quarter, which, based on my current numbers, I need to talk to Y number of new decision-makers each week and deliver Z number of presentations each month.

Below are 11 ideas to help inspire you to thank the employees you love.

• The post_content is no longer using esc_html before inserting it into the post_content as wp_insert_post handles that.
• Post categories are selected and hopefully will map out to an array to save during the insertion.
• Post taxonomy tags are also selected and hopefully will save as an array. (Need to add limit of three).
• The featured image is set by default (will need to add conditional formatting based on the user selected category)
