When looking for fund raising opportunities, it is easy to get bombarded with options that offer little to no benefit to the agency that needs the funding. For a strong alternative, keep incentives in mind for your customer. What are you selling that they actually need? With our struggling economy, it is getting more difficult to convince customers to purchase trinkets. By using a fundraising program that offers real value, such as gas certificates or free grocery certificates, you are offering a value that will make your fundraising profits soar.

When deciding to use certificates for your fundraising program, you will be issued a catalog. This is a risk free program for you. Simply present the catalog for friends, neighbors and co-workers to look through. They will have the opportunity to purchase either free gas certificates, free grocery certificates, or gas and groceries.

The denominations in free product increase with the amount of the donation. For example, a donation as low as $20 will get $200 in free gas. A $30 donation gets three times that amount – $600 in gas and groceries.

How does this work? The customers who make the donations redeem certificates for $25 Visa gift cards. The customer simply keeps receipts from regular grocery or gas purchases over a month, and once it totals $100, redeems the receipts via an account to receive the gas or grocery certificates. It?s win-win for everyone.

This type of incentive program has long been in place as a hook for new business. Giving away a product that every person must have anyway appeals to 100% of the customer base. Every person has to eat, and nearly every person has to drive, so by offering gas or grocery certificates you are giving back for something they do anyway.

This program is now paired with the KIDZ-IDZ. This program is designed to help customers save money while not changing spending habits. It eliminates the need for clipping coupons, but still rewards them. What?s even better, they can still cut coupons and bargain shop and STILL receive the rewards.

Why would you want to try to sell something that is going to leave customers feeling they overpaid for a piece of junk? With the KIDZ-IDZ incentive program, your customers will look forward to the new gas and grocery certificates year after year. The draw of this program will make this a fundraising event that actually grows every year instead of becoming the dreaded annual fundraiser.

Gas and grocery certificate programs are the new way to raise funds for your organization, by providing value for your customer and keeping money in your organization?s pocket.

Normally you would not hear from me more than a few times a month. Our business is not only altering the way “Incentive” based programs works but is improving daily on its delivery and customer service. Our new customer service piece is why I’m emailing today.
Per the title in the subject, this attachment was actually received last night (041409). In one presentation it describes via a visual and written presentation how YOUR customers will be TREATED under our new customer service delivery system - Opening up this week!
In addition our new website will be presented in the very near future. Just a few of the OPTIONS that will be made available to our customers are;

  • The site is full of information that will help any prospective or current client understand WHAT we do, HOW we do it, and WHY we can continue on the long road
  • Pay close attention to the ADVERTISE link (numerous options to our clients) – how about a list option that is growing at close to 50,000 new members per month you could have access to (refined to Zip Code for local impact)
  • We are opening dozens of Manufacturer FORUMS over the next 30 days.  We will be connecting the manufacturer with their buyers.  Social Networking is HOT right now and will be for some time to come.  Manufacturers will be able to display audio/video, do surveys, polling, offer specials and coupons all within their own private label forum.  The manufacturer will assign a moderator for the forum.  All users in the forum will be able to communicate with each other as well.  For example if it was the Weight Watchers forum the users could exchange recipes.  And Weight Watchers might be introducing a new meal and offer it FREE for taking a survey or deep discounts.
  • We have a FREE discount prescription card coming shortly that will be FREE to every end user that entitles them to up to 60% off prescriptions.  $500 in Rewards Cash that will get them Entertainment coupons that offer 2 for 1 restaurant discounts, and the ability to purchase $25 OFF coupons in restaurants across the USA for ONLY $5.  And the list goes on and on…
  • The new Pharmacy/RX certificate is right around the corner.  Stay close!
  • If you’re facilitating, sitting on the fence thinking about what you could do improve your business etc…what are you waiting for exactly…
  • We have the solution “Incentives That Work“!

Marketing minds have come up with a guaranteed incentive program. Our program allows you to purchase grocery gift cards at pennies on the dollar to offer to your customers. Grocery gift cards are something that will get everyone’s attention since 100 % of people eat. By giving grocery gift cards to your customers, you are boosting your business while retaining your sales. How does this work? Well, when marketing minds work in synch, we can find a unique way to help you. When your company buys these certificates from us, you hand them out to customers. Once they have spent a set amount of money with your company, they can be redeemed for groceries at any location.

The ways you can use this incentive program is limitless – you can do this as a Grand Opening incentive, customer loyalty award, new customer reward, or any other way you can imagine. Some businesses use them to schedule in-home demonstrations. The success has been phenomenal for these businesses. Consider this vacuum cleaner sales company: in a test purchase of 25 gas certificates, the promotion worked so well they are now purchase 3,000 certificates each week to schedule in home demos! Why? Because they are offering an incentive everyone can use. It doesn’t matter what business you are in, we can find a way to help you apply these certificates.

Watch Our Presentation

Let us explain how this program works. Your company purchases the certificate for a greatly reduced price. You give your customer the certificate when they spend a certain amount of money with your company, and you are only spending pennies on the dollar to offer this deal. Companies who tested this method of incentives for customers with one hundred certificates are now ordering them every week because of such a huge increase in business. See an increase of up to 30% in sales! This will be invigorating to your employees as they see the increase in traffic.

Now that you have found the secret to increased sales and customer incentives, hurry and contact us so we can help get your business going!
