Have you ever had people NOT redeem them? I'm just curious.

I've sold plenty of PC Gift Certificates, but I'm annoyed by the fact that there isn't much space for the recipients name as well as the 60-character maximum for the message. My brother just bought a gift certificate for a wedding gift and he wanted to put the bride AND groom's name on it. Of course it doesn't fit! Then he wanted to write a TWO sentence message and sign his name. DIDN'T FIT. It's very annoying. I did make these suggestions to HO. (Maybe they could make the font smaller for more space??)

Anyway, I haven't gone the route of making my own because I like to receive the commission ASAP and not wait until the recipient redeems it. (SO for this month, I know I have my sale for the Sell-A-Thon!)

Thanks for letting me vent!
 
Cat the plus to making your own certificates, if someone purchases a certificate from you, you get the $ up front, then when the recipient orders, you get the commission on the order.

If you use PC certs, you only get commission on the price of the cert - and the recipient must order directly from PC. If they place a $300 order, you do not get commission on any amount over the original cert price.

I hope this makes sense.
 
I make my own ever yso often...and yes, I have had people not redeem them.
 
Another down side is that you don't get the referral. If someone buys a GC for a person who doesn't know you, you have no way to get in touch with that person to talk about the products - you don't even know if/when they redeem it and for what!!!
 


Hi there!I completely understand your frustration with the limited space and character count on our PC Gift Certificates. It can definitely be challenging when trying to personalize them for special occasions like weddings.I have also made suggestions to HO about increasing the space and character count, and I will continue to do so as I believe it would greatly improve the customer experience.In my experience, I have had a few instances where the recipient did not redeem their gift certificate. It can be disappointing, but I always remind myself that it's ultimately up to the recipient to use it. However, I do recommend following up with the recipient to make sure they received the gift and to offer any assistance in redeeming the certificate.I completely understand your preference for receiving commission as soon as possible, but I also want to mention that you can still receive commission on gift certificate sales even if the recipient hasn't redeemed it yet. So it's worth considering making your own personalized gift certificates for those special occasions.Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for being a dedicated consultant. Keep up the great work!
