there re many ways to distribute TC gift cards.
1. If you have a personal Website or blog, consider adding one of spiffy new images/banners to distribute your gift cards online.
The way you would distribute your gift cards would be by including text on your blog or website describing your qualifications for receiving a card. For example, you could offer to mail one to those who sign up for your newsletter and provide you with their physical mailing address or who send you a postage-paid self-addressed envelope (for you to mail the gift card to). Or perhaps you want to offer one with the purchase of a physical product you sell (you could just drop the gift card in the package when you ship it to the buyer).
Distributing gift cards online to unknown persons is risky. This is because it's difficult to know if people are who they say their are online. Thus, someone could get a card out of you posing to be one person, then another card from you by posing to be another person, and another and another. A determined person could potentially rob you of dozens of cards! So when you set your qualifications for receiving a card from your blog or website, make sure you keep in mind that, sadly, there are dishonest people out there who might like to take advantage of your generosity.
2. Tap into the immense win/win/win power of co-oping with other businesses and organizations.
Here's an example; Let's say your friend runs a bakery. Here's the co-op you agree to: You supply him gift cards at no cost to him. He puts up a sign in his bakery offering his customers a free gift card with the purchase of, say, a dozen donuts. What an awesome win/win/win: Your baker friend sells more donuts and builds invaluable customer satisfaction/loyalty. The customer gets a free $12 gift card. And you gain a PRM and new potential lifetime income stream! Here are some sample signs you can provide (add the appropriate text to customize it as needed).
Here are some more examples of how to do gift card co-ops:
- Contact restaurant owners about offering a free gift card with every dessert order.
- Contact gas station owners about offering a free gift card for customers who buy $20 or more in gas.
- Your local high school could offer gift cards to parents who buy season tickets for the basketball team.
- Go around neighborhoods and stop at the garage sales. Provide the home owner with a supply of cards and this sign.
- The next time someone comes to you with a fundraiser, contribute to the fundraiser (buy something from them)...and then ask if they'd be interested in offering one of your gift cards to their customers who buy or buy X amount of their products.
- Do you sell some other product on the side (or know someone who does)? Our gift cards are perfect for boosting sales by offering them as a bonus for any purchase or for some minimum purchase amount.
- All businesses are looking for repeat customers. Provide businesses with flyer or a supply of gift cards.
