Looking for more giftable moments to turn into revenue? If you’ve made the most of holidays and special occasions like Valentine’s Day and birthdays, and you’re wondering what’s next, here’s a fresh idea for your hospitality business: gifts for teachers!
Teachers deserve to be showered with thank-you gifts after a long term, and while they won’t say no to another bottle of wine, your business is perfectly positioned to help parents and students show their appreciation with something even more thoughtful – branded gift vouchers from your restaurant or hotel.
Let’s explore why vouchers are a gift for teachers that hits the mark every time, and how you can sell more vouchers to grow your income at the end of every term.
Why parents and students can’t go wrong with gift vouchers
Discover why vouchers are the perfect solution when it comes to buying gifts for teachers.
Take the stress out of gifting
Trying to find the perfect gift for every teacher before the end of term can be stressful for parents, but gift vouchers make gifting easy. In just a few clicks, they can send digital gift vouchers to as many teachers as they’d like. If you know your customers would prefer printed vouchers, our fulfilment solution can take care of printing, personalisation and postage for you.
Make a lasting impression
Opening a digital gift voucher can be just as exciting and special as opening a physical present with personal video messages. Vouchers delivered with video messages are one-of-a-kind, and teachers will remember the kind words shared by students for years to come.
Perfect for every budget
Spoiling teachers doesn’t have to set your customers back. With the option to purchase gift vouchers for experiences and monetary values, they can show their appreciation with a gift that matches their budget. Better yet, parents could pool their money to buy a voucher that teachers will really appreciate.
How to sell more vouchers at the end of every term
Growing your revenue through gift voucher sales starts with getting the word out. We’ve shared ideas to help you promote your gift vouchers and make the most of gifts for teachers.
Reach the right audience with targeted advertising
To turn gifts for teachers into revenue, you need to put your vouchers in front of the people most likely to buy – parents, caregivers and students. Targeted advertising lets you do just that by showing your ad to the right people at the right time. A well-placed ad can make your vouchers the go-to solution for thoughtful and fuss-free gifts.
Create a sense of urgency with limited-time deals
Limited-time offers are a powerful way to get customers to act quickly and buy gift vouchers before your offer ends. Add a countdown timer to your online store to let shoppers know how much time they have left before your promotion ends, encouraging them to make purchases before the clock runs out.
Catch parents looking for deals with discounts
Gift shopping can become expensive, especially for customers buying gifts for more than one teacher. Grab the attention of those searching for special offers with discounts on your gift vouchers. Share promotional codes in emails, social media posts, and pop-ups and banners on your online store, to make your gift vouchers more attractive to gift-givers looking to save.
Remind customers to complete purchases with emails
Don’t let abandoned carts become missed opportunities. Set up basket abandonment emails to re-engage potential buyers and drive more sales. Reminders give shoppers the gentle nudge they need to return to your online store and complete their purchases. Keep your email friendly and helpful – include a clear call to action, showcase the items in their cart, and offer a limited-time incentive to seal the deal.
