HOLIDAYS THE RDI WAY!

SANTA VISITS MILFORD
Merriment in Leaps and Bounds! 🌲
If you need another opportunity to ooh and ahh over some of the cutest RDI family kiddos, look no further than when Santa surprised Milford with a visit! They got to spend time on-site coloring holiday-themed artwork, designing cutting-edge gingerbread men and women, and even chatting with the big man himself: Santa Claus!
The only things missing from this picture-perfect snapshot were the reindeer; rumor is they got caught up on the lines answering questions about Santa’s delivery times!
SANTA ON-SITE!
HOLIDAY CHEER IN MÉXICO!
HERMOSILLO SETS THE PARTY BAR HIGH!
December 2022
Hermosillo blew us away with their holiday cheer! They took this season’s roots of celebration, gratitude, and joy to heart and threw an AMAZING holiday party for their entire site 🥳 Their Christmas sweater game is on point, and their smiles and cheer are contagious, so be careful when you watch this! You may accidentally pass on the good vibes 😁
If you’re curious about Hermosillo’s wins this year, they cover all their reasons to celebrate: 15 promotions, 18 people certified via RDI Bootcamp, $14,780 pesos in community donations, and MORE!
RDI'S 2022 HOLIDAY VIDEO
Coming December 28, 2022!
If you were watching the videos above and thinking that the only thing missing from these videos was RDI’s top leadership, you would be right!! Our leadership team took time out of their busy schedules and holiday plans to create a HILARIOUS parody of a fairly popular TV show to celebrate this holiday season with the help of the excellent Billy Beck and the rest of our fantastic Creative team!
We’ll share this video next issue, so be on the lookout! See if you can guess which TV show we took as inspiration 💡
YOU BETTER WATCH OUT!

FAIR & CHILI COOK-OFF
Latonia & Milford Sites
We all have one thing in common: our RDI family! But there are ALSO many talents and passion projects that go unnoticed during the day-to-day bustle and hustle of our sites. Milford and Latonia decided to highlight their employees’ businesses, hobbies, and passions with vendor fairs and chili cook-offs! At these vendor fairs, RDI employees who have side businesses, a hobby craft, or product they sell were able to set up booths in the breakroom where their coworkers could browse and purchase away.
These sales allowed the artists and entrepreneurs among the RDI family to make some extra money for the holiday seasons WHILE giving their coworkers the opportunity to find the perfect gift to give! A portion of the proceeds went to fund the giving trees to help those in need during the holidays 🌲.
SUPPORT FOR YOUR GOALS!
ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME!
EXERCISE & FUN WITH COWORKERS
Pickleball at RDI
Last week, RDI Milford held its very first pickleball night where everyone learned how to play! There were some intense games, so if you’re interested in trying the sport yourself be on the lookout for the next event on social media! All skill levels are welcome, so come have fun with us!
You might have seen pickleball rearing its popularity head recently; however, pickleball was started by a senator in Washington state and a couple of his friends all the way back in 1965! It has now come to RDI by our very own Andy Mitt, Sales and Marketing Specialist. Shoutout to Andy for organizing the event and being a GREAT instructor!
A CASE FOR SPEECH ANALYTICS
A peek behind the RDI curtain!
Computers are a normal part of our everyday, both at home and at work! We use them for fun, for information, and to make our tasks easier and more efficient. Check out one way RDI puts computers to work for our clients and how we improve client relations and the customer experience. Click the image to learn more.
Technology, especially when mixed with human ingenuity, is constantly pushing the bounds of what is possible. Keep watching for the next innovations to come out of RDI! If you have any big brain moments or ideas, feel free to share them below or with your PM today!
FINDING NEW SOLUTIONS
RDI MAKES A DIFFERENCE!
BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS BOWLING
RDI Makes an Impact on Kids’ Lives
Making a difference in the lives of children is its own reward, but having a great time with new and old friends and family makes it even sweeter! Check out Blue Ash, Milford, and Latonia partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters sponsors and volunteers to compete on the bowling lanes and raise money to support their mission!
The “Bowl for Kids’ Sake” events raised about $40,000 👀 We’re so glad that RDI was able to make such a fantastic IMPACT this holiday season! Thank you to everyone that took part and made it the great success that it was, let’s hope to top this next year!

MEALS ON WHEELS FUNDRAISER
November 19, 2022
Check out some of the snaps from the Meals on Wheels “Bust a Crust” fundraiser, held to better serve seniors in our local communities during the holiday season.
With the help of RDI leaders like Josh Viel, Tara Kearney, Andy McCarthy, James Walsh, and Chris Griffin, they distributed more than 6,000 pies during Thanksgiving Week! In 2020 they gave out around 1,700 pies, which raised enough funds to serve over 7,000 seniors in need! Imagine how many we’ll have helped with our 6,000 🥧
Fun fact: if we assume that there’s around 20g of sugar per pie, RDI helped hand out some of the over 260 pounds of sugar and untold amounts of cheer that Meals on Wheels served up!
SERVING UP SUGAR AND SPICE!
NOT ENOUGH ROOM IN BED?
CASPER MATTRESS DISCOUNT EXTENDED!
Ends January 1, 2023
Over one-half of all Americans say that they are EXHAUSTED by the middle of the week; could an old mattress be the source of this issue?? Reports are inconclusive, but just in case you want to pick up a new bed for yourself, your family, or a kiddo this holiday, Casper’s mattress deal is still going on!
Whether you need more space now because of your kids’ nightmares or your puppy refuses to listen to your “no bed” policy, check out the discount code in Core today!
CALLING ALL WHO CELEBRATE!
December 2022
The holiday season is upon us as we approach the end of 2022! Traditions and holidays are incredibly important to us as individuals and as part of our larger RDI family. The way we celebrate expresses what is significant to us, and our practices help tie us to past generations and give us a sense of belonging 🫂
If you have any unique holiday customs, whether Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, or another, we’d love the opportunity to learn from you and give you a platform to share some of your most cherished traditions. Fill out the form below, and we’ll reach out ASAP!
