IncentiveDirect create innovative online reward and motivation systems.

August is the time to relax and recharge your batteries for the coming onslaught. It's the time of catching up on your reading, days on the beach, games of cricket, and glasses of Pimms.

So whether you are an existing customer, or have expressed an interest in the iD-points incentive system, we hope you find this e-mail useful and informative.

/01. New IncentiveDirect site coming soon.

We're putting the finishing touches to the new look IncentiveDirect site.

It's a fairly subtle makeover, simplifying and reducing, an almost Taoist like process of identifying our essence, our core, our ch'i.

Look for it in the next couple of weeks.

/02. Recent IncentiveDirect blog entries.

As part of our redesign of the IncentiveDirect site, we're giving the IncentiveDirect blog a bit of a face-lift, but it's still the essential place to go for news and views of the incentive industry.

This months entries have focussed on the role of incentives in the changing workplace:

Incentives can build trust in mobile workforce.

""The old image of the 'helicopter' boss, hovering demonically over his staff, will give way to a more enlightened, assertive boss, using communication technologies positively to monitor performance and productivity, and engage with staff."

The neuroeconomics of instant gratification.

"It turns out the fact we prefer 'instant gratification' is not rocket science, it's neuroscience."

/03. New products for August.

We continue to add great new products to the iD-points store. Here's what's fizzimg and popping for August.

Remote controlled car-nage!
With this RC Dodge Charger you can re-enact your own version of The Dukes of Hazzard, and create 1:10 scale motorised mayhem.

If a muscle car isn't your thing, then try a Nikko Subaru Rally car, a Lamborghini Gallardo sports car, or an old style VW Beetle.

It's auto-geddon!

Get yer TomToms out
Never get lost again with the latest sat-nav systems from TomTom. Find out where you are, or where your going. Not much use if you're stuck in the car park in Ikea, but if you're planning a journey, it's better than having a six foot square OS map unfurled on your lap.

Marcy Cambridge Air Rower
Have you ever noticed that British atheletes are always great when it comes to sports where you sit down - cycling, sailing, rowing, equestrian? Discuss.

Now you can get in touch with your inner Steve Redgrave, with these great rowing machines from Marcy. Rowing is one of the best all-over workouts you can get - feel the total all-over body burn for your calves, quads, bum, tum, chest, triceps and biceps, as well as the cardio-vascular system.

An air resistance rower with adjustable tension, large footplate, and sturdy construction, these rowing machines can take all the punishment a Pinsent or Cracknell could throw at it.
