04 · How Nudge handles it
We keep every person and every package matched.
For each person, we keep one checklist with their name, message, gift, address, approval, and delivery status.
Nothing is printed or packed until you approve it. Before shipping, we check that the right letter and gift are going to the right person.
05 · What success looks like
The person understands why you chose them.
Every new employee starts with the same care, wherever they are based.
Do not judge this only by the number of packages sent. Check that the right person received the right message, in the right form, at the right time.
