I was hoping to elaborate on an old posting, but I couldn't find anything down this alley (god forbid there are too many threads created). We are looking to beef up our reward system for our actors. Right now, we feed them three times a night, give them plenty of soda and water, and they get field trips to other haunts, and t-shirts, and a big party at the end of the season. The only problem with all of this is... it doesn't encourage the actors to come as many nights as possible. If you set a minimum... most of the actors make sure they squeeze in minimum number of nights to reap the benefits...
At our haunt, we have the Bone Crew who builds and runs the haunt... then we have the rest of the actors. We have a great system in place for the bone crew (road trips to haunts on the east coast, trip to transworld for some, etc) but we don't have a good system in place for the basic actor.
So our new idea is to do a points system for the actors, and provide a listing of prizes/goodies that they can redeem points for at the end of the season. (all of the goodies are tagged with our brand name). We're thinking to use comp tickets (for family and friends) t-shirts, jackets, skate board decks, and other swag we get along the way.
Does anyone else use this type of system?
what's your opinion on this type of system?
Any other goodie ideas?
