Getting all your perks.

August 27, 2013 by Auntie Kate of Too Good to be Threw

I’m as guilty as you are. I let my coupons expire and even my “rewards check” (AKA store credit) from Staples molder in the bottom of my purse.

And I’ve grown accustomed to less than 10% of those purchasing my manual actually redeeming the free Product coupon for The 15-Step Approach to PROFIT tucked inside.

Dani's Village Consignment in PA is a HowToConsign.com Treasured SponsorSo when I sent out the email to my 100+ HowToConsign.com Sponsors last week, I didn’t expect anyone to actually make sure she/he was using all the perks that come with Sponsorship.

But Dani’s Village Consignment did! When she emailed me last night for her Certificate of Appreciation to hang on her Brag Wall, she also gave me her Facebook and Pinterest addresses, and I took the opportunity to grab a photo of her shop and put it on both TGtbT.com’s Pinterest and on HowToConsign.com’s as well!

Let’s see… that’s FOUR high-quality links to her site (SO crucial for search engine placement), her shop photo in front of our over 1000 Pinterest followers, plus a lovely Certificate of Appreciation to hang in her shop and impress her customers.

Bet she’s glad she opened that email huh? Me too.
