There is nothing like sharing some of the profits with your team that made it possible. I have done this in every company that I have owned in various fields. The vast majority have been very appreciative, increased loyalty and production in the following year - which was mutually rewarding again at the end of the next year. I have also had a few who would always think that no matter how much they received that they should have received more. I would always rather err on the side of generosity and give as I would like to receive if we traded places within the company.
