Esler Companies Teammate Spotlight: How Jake Roberts Turned Esler Bucks Into an Unforgettable Experience

By January 23, 2026 No Comments

January 2026 – At Esler Companies, recognition is personal. Through its teammate appreciation program, teammates earn “Esler Bucks” that can be redeemed for meaningful rewards, from Esler gear and gift cards to memorable experiences.

One story that captures that spirit comes from Jake Roberts, a Project Consultant in the Southern New England territory. Jake set a goal early on to save his Esler Bucks for something he’d truly use and enjoy. After months of saving up, he redeemed them for a custom set of golf clubs he designed himself – and it turned out to be perfect timing.

Jake’s exceptional sales performance didn’t just earn him Esler Bucks, it earned him a coveted spot on the 2026 Top Performer Celebration Trip to Mexico. While on the trip, Jake had the opportunity to bring his clubs to the course for a round of golf with Esler Companies senior leaders, including Matt Esler (Owner & CEO), Ron Pelletier (CFO), and Steve Tillman (General Manager of Arizona).

“The opportunity to play golf with Matt Esler and the leadership team in Mexico was a true highlight and an experience I’ll always appreciate,” said Roberts. “It was a surreal moment, standing on the course joking with Matt and realizing that half the clubs in my bag were ones I personally designed using my Esler Bucks.”

Jake’s story is a perfect example of what the appreciation program is all about: recognizing great work and giving teammates the freedom to choose rewards that feel meaningful to them.

At Esler Companies, gratitude isn’t an afterthought. It’s part of how the organization celebrates wins, strengthens connection, and continues building a culture where people feel valued, supported, and proud of what they do.
