Getting more sales from emails
Getting more sales from social media

1. Coupon Codes in Exchange for Contact Information Templates
This category of coupon templates is very straight forward - your social media followers and website visitors get coupons in exchange of their contact details. You can gamify this by making it a quiz and only giving coupons to people who get the questions right.
Or you can get some useful customer insights by asking a few questions before displaying the coupon code. Speaking of which:
2. Coupon Codes in Exchange for Feedback Templates
Customer feedback is invaluable when it comes to improving your business and discount coupons are the easiest way to get it. Coupons provide an incentive for your customers to leave feedback and give people a reason to buy from you again.
3. Coupon Codes As an Alternative to Cancelling Templates
According to a recent survey, the average person spends $273 per month on subscription services. Periodically going through all your subscriptions and cancelling a bunch is the closest some people get to mental hygiene.
To make it less likely that your subscription gets cancelled, offer cancellation alternatives like pausing or discounting the subscription. That’s exactly what these templates are for.
How to Create Coupon Codes for Your Online Store
Creating a coupon code can be as simple as typing “AWESOME20” or as fancy as using a coupon generator. It depends on what kind of coupon you need. Here are some common coupon types:
1. Same Coupon for Everyone
All you need to create these coupons is think of a word that’s easy to type in and maybe even somewhat relevant to your sale.
These are perfect for:
Side-wide sales. Use code SPRING25 to get 25% off selected items
Seasonal deals. Use code BF2021 to get 30% off orders over $200
Shopper behaviours. We miss you, {FirstName}! Get 15% off your next order with code COMEBACK.
You can use these in involve.me in 5 simple steps:
1. Click on the Coupons tab
2. Click “Create new list”
3. Under coupon type, select “Single - One Coupon Type For All Users”
4. Type in your coupon code
5. If applicable, select a limit of hamy times this coupon can be redeemed
2. Unique Coupons for Each Shopper
These are for individual customers and won’t work if shared with someone else. Maybe they completed a survey and get a coupon code as a reward or maybe they tried to cancel their subscription and need a discount to stay on board.
Each unique coupon code is different and can only be used once. That’s why these coupons are usually created via a coupon generator like Voucherify. You’ll get coupons looking something like this:
You can copy-paste these into a coupon list in involve.me in 5 simple steps.
1. Click on the “Coupons” tab
2. Click “Create new list”
3. Under coupon type, select “Multiple - Unique Coupon Code For Each User”
4. Copy-paste your coupon codes in
Once your coupon list is ready, you can insert your coupons into any involve.me template or anything you made from scratch. Simply drag & drop this icon into your canvas.
