Online Gift Certificates

Gift Cards

Selling gift certificates online can be a tremendous way to increase business and customer satisfaction. By enabling them to buy gift certificates from the comfort of their, home, office or mobile device, you increase your customer’s satisfaction, while making them effectively an extension of your sales force.

Physical vs. eDelivery

FusionWare has experience getting FedEx certification and can provide you with both physical delivery of gift certificates or gift cards, as well as eDelivery using a PDF with a bar code that can be validated at the store.

Consider that if you do not have eDelivery, 2 ½ days before Christmas or any other important holiday, your sales of gift certificates will dry up. With eDelivery, instead of drying up, your sales will increase as customers desperate to do their last minutes gift buying will flock to those vendors who will enable them to get the gift in time, despite the courier and shipping deadline having passed.

We’ve seen a customer, the first year that they had eDelivery, sell over $30,000.00 in eDelivered gift certificates in one hour on Christmas morning!

Social Media

Customers today expect to do just about everything on their mobile devices, and even when on their tablet, laptop, or desktop systems, one of the portals of choice is Facebook.

Facebook

FusionWare can enable a social marketing and sales opportunity where customers who “like” your Facebook page can see promotional offers, and select them. This will direct them to your web where they can buy a gift certificate, selecting a Facebook friend as the recipient. They can then choose to privately send this gift, or actually post it to their friend’s wall, along with a notice on their own wall that they sent this gift.

Any friend seeing either of the wall posts can view them and see a link that lets them, too, buy a gift certificate for a friend (or “like” your page).

This approach provides you with a powerful opportunity to have your customers do some viral marketing on your behalf to their entire community of friends.  Your customers will love this opportunity to show their appreciation for their friends, and let their other friends know what they’ve done!

Social Sales

FusionWare provides you with the tools to enable your customers to sell gift certificates, make referrals and much more.

Demonstration



“When Mario Tricoci Hair Salons & Day Spas was looking to engage our guests seamlessly through social media, we turned to FusionWare to help us integrate our online gift purchasing with FaceBook. Our guests can now “gift” their friends and post it on both of their FaceBook walls.  We’re really excited about being able to extend our reach through the obvious 3rd party endorsement that occurs when friends post gifts to each other.”
