Filed under Full Color Plastic Card Printing , OnlinePrinting - Marketing Tips For Small Business , Plastic Key Tags

With the holiday season nearly upon us, people are preparing for the most festive time of year: shopping season! As a small business owner, remember to keep your customers in mind during this hectic period. Many shoppers rely on purchasing gift cards because they are easy to buy and easy to give. Below are some other reasons why offering gift cards can help your business. Last Minute / Impulse Purchases With stress being an overwhelming factor in many people’s lives, shopping can be a daunting task. Undoubtedly, someone will always forget, or run out of time to purchase a gift on their list. A great remedy is for shoppers to purchase a gift card from the recipient’s favorite store. Another advantage of gift cards is that they can make for great impulse buys. Hang the cards at eye level around the store or at your point of sale stations and they will prove a tempting purchase. Extra Revenue Gift cards can create extra revenue long after the holiday season has passed. When the gift card receiver is ready to cash in their gift, they may use the gift card to “upgrade” their purchase. Many customers end up spending more money than provided on the original gift card, which means higher than anticipated revenue for you! Marketing Tool Because gift cards are limited to your specific store, they can increase your customer base. A person receiving a gift card, who has never been a customer, must visit the store to make their purchase and thus, has the potential to return. Gift cards that reflect the store’s image and branding can also help launch new marketing campaigns. People like to get exactly what they want, and with so many choices it can be hard to purchase the perfect gift. Don’t be left out in the cold this holiday season. Have custom gift cards printed and offer gift givers and receivers with what they really want, the gift of choice.

My1Stop.Com Launches 3 New Web Developments That Streamline Online Insurance Card Purchasing.

Filed under Full Color Plastic Card Printing

Purchasing plastic insurance cards has never been easier thanks to 3 new web tools that make online ordering as easy as a click of a button. Insurance companies can now get instant online pricing, saved quote features and reliable artwork uploads for plastic insurance card printing at My1Stop.com. - April 17, 2007 The first of three web tools is an instant online pricing interface. Insurance card buyers use a simple interface to select the features unique to plastic insurance cards. The features are selected with simple clicks. As the buyer clicks through the pricing check list, updated pricing is displayed in real time based on the quantity required and the features selected. The quantity, too, can be changed resulting in instant comparison of volume price breaks. When the buyer has the features and the price they need, they can move on to purchase online – or save their quote to share with colleagues. “Saved quote”, the second new web tool, is a part of the “My Account” function. When the buyer clicks on “save quote” each price feature and total cost are instantly added to “My Account”. Quotes are stored indefinitely so that buyers can share pricing with colleagues – and make changes without re-starting the pricing process. A simple click on the saved quote opens the instant pricing tool so that features and quantities can be changed based on input from colleagues. Once the pricing is correct, buyers check out and upload their plastic insurance card artwork and data files. Artwork and data file upload has been simplified and made reliable by the third new My1Stop.com web tool. The upload tool automatically ties the buyer’s price and quote to the artwork as it is uploaded. Any variable data, such as policy holder information, is also uploaded using this new tool. The upload takes place on a secure server and connection– dedicated to artwork and data uploads. The result? A plastic insurance card printing order completed in minutes. Each order is priced instantly, saved for immediate review and securely tied to the artwork and data files when uploaded at checkout.
