If you've already got a gift card program in place, Tamara Schweitzer from Inc.com lays out a few tips for you to get that program to double in sales!
- Sell Packages: Think about what kind of experience you can sell with your gift cards. Consumers today are busy and sometimes indecisive. Give them a quick and easy choice with a gift card package that offers a great experience. Create the price points for the gift card based on the packages you have in mind.
- Make it Simple to Buy Online: It may not be the first thought on your mind, but offering gift cards on your website is a simple and easy addition but many do not implement. So much of gift buying is done online that you'd be missing out on a huge market to sell to.
- Let The People Know: If they don't know you offer it, how will they know to buy it? Make sure that you make it apparent that buying a gift card as a gift is an option for them. Including gift card hangers or backers is also a great way to catch their attention.
- Get an Email List: Another great way to get the attention of your customers is to send out email campaigns that highlight the fact that you can buy gift cards at your store.
