Gift With Purchase

How It Works

We ran across so many people that wanted to do this that we built it right into our platform!  It’s not a sweepstakes or a contest, but it is a promotion and a very effective one.  Typically, this is tied in with a loyalty program or some kind of tracking of your top customers.  You then simply send an email to your favorite customers with a unique code they can use to redeem their gift.
Shameless Plug:  This is built into our system and, through our partners, we can even seamlessly handle the fulfillment for you.


What It Solves

Here are a few of the benefits to trying this kind of promotion:

1. Rewarding Your Best Customers – It’s nice to be thanked, and being thanked with a nice gift is even better. Recognize your best customers!
2. Easing the BlowMarketing – Often these gifts can serve double duty as a marketing effort.  For example, giveaway t-shirts with your own logo on them.  How about a nice drink cozy or even an entire cooler for your very best customers emblazoned with your logo, tagline or other message.  That’s a win-win.
3. Sales – If you make a habit of giving things away to certain loyal customers who have achieved prestigious tiers in your loyalty program, this incentive can drive sales as customers strive to “level up”.

Adding Coupons To Your Promo

There are various ways of incorporating coupons into your next online promotion. First, coupons can be a great “thanks for playing” incentive – you can send an email to everyone who enters with a percentage off coupon.

Responsive vs Adaptive

Responsive? Adaptive? What are you crazy geeks talking about?
There is a method in website design and development called “Responsive Design”. What this means is that the content will shrink down in a clean way to fit on a phone. This works great most of the time. However, there is another method called “Adaptive Design”.

The Importance of Activation

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it… Well, if a promotion lands on the internet and no one is told it is there, then it most certainly won’t make a sound. We in the industry call this “activation”, and it simply means getting the word out about a promotion.
