The Yay! Appreciation Partnership
Thoughtful appreciation — without the scrambling.
Most companies want to recognize employees and clients well.
What usually gets in the way isn’t care — it’s time, bandwidth, and remembering.
The Yay! Appreciation Partnership exists to take appreciation off your mental load while keeping it personal, human, and genuinely meaningful.
How It Works
You choose a simple monthly budget.
Yay! helps you use it intentionally throughout the month — for employees, clients, milestones, or “just because” moments.
No bulk promo.
No last-minute panic.
No one-size-fits-all gifts.
Just consistent, thoughtful recognition — handled.
What’s included
A predictable monthly appreciation budget
Flexible use across employees, clients, and events
Founder-led guidance (you’re not handed a catalog)
Personalization and care in every moment
Simple planning so nothing gets forgotten
Monthly Options
$500/month

$1,000/month

(Plans are flexible and can evolve as your needs do.)
Who This Is For
Teams that care about people, not just performance
Companies tired of scrambling at the last minute
Leaders who want appreciation to feel authentic — not transactional
What This Is Not
Promotional swag
Cheap giveaways
Mass-produced “logo on everything” gifts
If this sounds supportive rather than stressful,
we’re probably a good fit.
If you’re thinking this… you’re not alone
We don’t have the budget right now.

Totally understandable. Most of the teams I work with aren’t looking to add another expense.
What usually happens instead is a shift — replacing last-minute orders, random swag, or one-off gifting with a simple, predictable approach.
Often, it’s not about spending more — it’s about using what you already spend more intentionally.
If budget is a concern, we can always start by looking at what you’re already doing.
We already do gifts internally.

That’s actually a great sign — it usually tells me you care.
Many of my partners come to me not because they don’t do appreciation, but because it’s become reactive or falls on the same person every time. My role isn’t to replace what you’re doing — it’s to support it, streamline it, and make it easier to sustain.
If you already have good intentions, you’re likely closer to a fit than you think.
We only do appreciation a few times a year.

That’s very common.
What I’ve seen, though, is that spreading the same budget out across the year often feels more personal — not less. One small, unexpected moment can leave a bigger impression than a single annual gift that everyone expects.
There’s no one “right” frequency — just what feels manageable and meaningful for your team.
We need to think about it.

Of course. This works best when it feels supportive — not forced.
You don’t need to decide anything on a first conversation. Sometimes it’s just helpful to talk through how appreciation currently shows up, what feels clunky, and whether a different rhythm would help.
If it’s a fit, great. If not, you’ll still walk away clearer.
Most partners reach out with questions, not certainty — that’s expected here.
