There are thousands of marketing approaches available, while the easiest and most effective one is the use of “gift coupon”.
Why?
Because gift coupons have values, people would keep and take good care of them, and would use them properly. In addition to attracting customers to the stores for shopping, the graphics and literal information on the coupons also have the effects on advertisements that coupons are medias which make customers be aware of the stores repeatedly. Therefore, gift coupons are the brands’ best goodwill ambassadors, aren’t they?
The explicit anti-counterfeiting designs declare on the genuineness clearly, and are able to upgrade the sense of values. On the other hand, the implicit anti-counterfeiting designs have further improved the barriers of counterfeiting, and to provide producer and customers with advanced protections. To achieve the marketing objectives, the gift coupons do not only need to look valuable but also need to have genuine values. No wonder anti-counterfeiting designs have been used on the gift coupons. Many of the anti-counterfeiting designs are similar to what are used on the bills to create sense of values.
After all, as the brands’ representatives, can they do without decently packaging themselves?
