Setting Up Gift Cards Via Hike POS using 99minds

“Make a customer, not a sale.”

    – Katherine Barchetti, Founder, K. Barchetti Shops

Make new friends, but keep the old, as the old saying goes. The first is silver, whereas the second is gold.” A long-term customer is also more valuable than a one-time consumer, and keeping a current customer is much less expensive than acquiring a new one. This isn’t to imply we shouldn’t go out and gain new clients; rather, if we can hold a higher percentage of those consumers for a longer period of time, we can construct a revenue foundation that is more profitable and predictable.

That being said, what could be more satisfying than a successful sale? Converting a one-time sale into a long-term consumer. And how can we make every customer a long-haul partner? – Definitely with the art of staying connected.

As a result, 99minds is introducing a new alliance with Hike to empower you to perfect your game of staying connected with your valuable consumers.

When it comes to birthdays and holidays, it’s no surprise that gift cards are popular. As a merchant, you understand the value of offering gift cards and how beneficial they can be in bringing in more revenue. Many small retail businesses, on the other hand, avoid offering gift cards for one simple reason: keeping track of gift card sales and redemptions is a time-consuming administrative task. 99minds gift cards can be easily plug-in with Hike without scratching your brain, allowing you to focus on the rest of the job.

It’s simple to sell and redeem :
