Programs that look and feel like your current marketing efforts allow for employees to feel that your new recognition program is an extension of your brand. Using similar fonts, colors, verbiage, and imagery of what employees are already familiar with allows for the program to launch effortlessly, while still creating a new excitement and buzz around the office. Plus, by sticking close to branding guidelines, it's likely your Marketing Team will approve your artwork, and that’s one step closer to launching a program!
