401(k) Day Communications Tools for Plan Sponsors
2012 Program
The 2012 401(k) Day campaign uses nostalgic kid-themed graphics to draw the attention of your employees. The key messages provide information and education regarding saving for retirement in actionable terms. The entire campaign can be used at one time, or spread throughout the year, and into next. The communications can be customized with your company’s logo, a call to action, and your plan’s contact information.
In addition, we added a final "course" to last year’s colorful food- themed campaign, which also was designed to work beyond the first year. This final course is dessert…plan to enjoy retirement! Note that there is a separate user’s guide for the first three courses of the 2011 campaign; but the 2011 materials and the new "dessert course" are designed to be used together.
2011 Program
The 2011 401(k) Day campaign uses brightly colored presentations of food-themed analogies to encourage participants to take action regarding their personal retirement savings. The communications can be customized with your company's logo and contact information for distribution to your employees. We've divided the campaign into three courses for you to be able to use at anytime throughout the year --actually, continuously throughout the year -- as we roll out a fresh new theme over the next several months.

2010 Program
PSCA's 2010 401(k) Day is an exceptional education campaign that will help plan sponsors and participants learn more about the benefits of saving for retirement in a 401(k) plan. Each component of the campaign features a series of valuable education and communication tools that can be customized with your own company name and logo. These tools include posters, postcards, fliers and articles.
