Coupon Book Idea, by Mark Rosenthal

[Guest]

It looks like a business cards with about 6 to 10 ads on the front and back.

So each ad would be pretty small but you can have a lot on each card then.

I guess I'm starting to see how this could work. Getting your free ad in front of a lot of people and meet business owners etc in the process. The scouts/church group would benefit a lot from this too and I can see how that would open up the door to the parents.

I might just have to give this a try sometime. I would love to see an actual picture of the card though if you have it available.

I wouldn't mind seeing a copy of the card as well.

Thanks

I like the idea. Where did you get the cards made at? Did the youth sell it for $5.00 and make $4.00?

I like Mark's idea. Like a business card coupon magnet that goes on the fridge being one of my thoughts. It gives folks a reason to hold on to your business card.

Any Printing company can make it. SOme might even do it for free because it is a fundraiser. The kids at school sell it for $10.00 The scout sell it for $5 Don't forget it cost a nickel to make at most. My wife buys one every year from the school. My wife keeps one every year. SHe will get the new one soon and I will share it with you.

www.speedyfundraiser.com is a local company here in Griffin that makes them and they charge the business on the card and the fundraiser company. You are not charging the business, and are allowing the fundraising company to keep all the money, unless you want to charge a dollar a card to cover your time.

THEY TELL ME WHAT THEY WANT TO GIVE AWAY, (DISCOUNTS,FREE SODA,ETC.ETC) i T COSTS THEM NOTHING. i WILL DO IT WITH A COUPON. i WILL GET THEM OUT TO THE PEOPLE.(I WILL DO THE LEG WORK)- (SO FAR THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING EXCEPT GIVE AWAY SOME SORT OF INCENTIVE TO COME TO THIER BUSINESS) BUT ON THE BACK OF EVERY COUPON IS MY AD. "MICHAEL ALLEVATO- LIFE HEALTH " MUTUAL OF OMAHA ETC,ETC (AND MY SMILING FACE) SO THAT IT LOOKS LIKE IM GIVING AWAY THE DISCOUNTS. NOW WHOS THE HERO!! NOW WHOS THIER FRIEND!! NOW WHOS THIER AGENT!!.........THATS MY TAKE ON IT......MICHAEL ALLEVATO

I think it would work in both situations. Although if you just hand them out yourself you are not the hero you think you are. If you help everyone on the cards get business and raise money for the local charity or school/scouts then you are a real hero. I can see local news talking about how you are helping local businesses and schools at no charge to them! WOW now look where it is going. News Coverage Hmmmmmmm.

How many of these coupons would you have printed up? Two sided? Color quality? Now you're talking about money, in my opinion.

I should get one in very soon to post. They cost a nickel to make each. That is if the printing coupon does not give it to you for free.

I bet you have seen these cards before from fund raisers. A lot of the schools have them. I just bought one last week, to show you guys what the avg one looks like.
