Giftbit

I use Giftbit to offer an incentive to potential customers to meet with me to discuss a specific product. My customers are doctors who own their own practices so getting time with them can be challenging. The gift card helps make getting the appointment easier. I was able to book about 70 appointments over a 3-month period, in part because of the gift card.

• Ease of use
• Support
• Selection of gifts
• Pricing

• Offering the gift cards definitely drove the number of appointments set. I was advertising in a trade journal, so I was hitting the right targets, but the gift card helped drive bookings.
• The downside is that I had a pretty large percentage (about half) that were not serious buyers but rather "gift card hunters." This has nothing to do with Giftbit but it's a factor in my consideration of future advertising. Given that I was offering a $50 gift card for the meeting, the gift cards added up to a sizable portion of my ad budget.
• If I'm going to offer a gift card, I'm going to use Giftbit.

Sending gift cards to our customers used to be a total headache. I'd keep a manual list of customers we wanted to send them to, then work with a virtual assistant to manually order them via a third-party vendor. Giftbit saved us hours upon hours of time, thanks to its integration with Zapier. I created a Zap that allows tagging a customer in our CRM and like magic they'd get a gift card in their inbox. It didn't take me more than a few minutes to set up.

Our growing business was looking at a quick and efficient way to deliver end-of-year thank you gifts in the form of gift cards to a specific product and marketing team, in addition to our normal company-wide gifts. We wanted them sent alongside a personal email written by their superiors, so they all felt individually appreciated. Giftbit allowed us to send gift card links separately and could customize the messaging and branding, so it felt like our company's.

For other teams, we utilized their mass template, where you can choose variable data to insert into a larger template and send out as a branded gift card.

The response was positive, and everyone said they were very easy to use. The only frustrating part was accidentally sending a few with expiration dates that were less than two months away, so we had to adjust, so they expired a year later. What's really nice is that you can see who has opened their links, who has viewed their links, etc.

• Mass sending
• Brand customization
• Choice of card (e.g. Amazon, Starbucks)

• A majority of recipients used their gift cards
