Fire a message with a discount on a customer's order right after he/she cancels a purchase. With automatic messages, you can react instantly and reduce the number of abandoned orders.

Enhance your coupon strategy with up- and cross-selling techniques. You can add various items and run multiple campaigns at the same time to leverage different customer expectations.

Create a special short-term offer and encourage people to celebrate Black Friday or Thanksgiving Day with your coupons. All you need is a couple of minutes to generate a public code for multiple uses, perfect for multi-channel distribution and social media sharing.

Make it urgent! Seasonal campaigns are based on the same rules that the event promotions. By defining a particular time window, you can create a sense of relevance and urgency.

Plan your strategy and choose between:

• Bulk of unique codes campaign (discount coupons or gift cards).
• Fixed-code campaign (public code with a defined value).

Tell Voucherify what's your definition of loyalty and run a campaign for clients who meet your criteria. You can build long term relations with the most important customers and show them your appreciation. Campaign rules can base on order history, already spent amount, or any other custom property which defines your loyal customer.

Learn what works for your business. Run multiple, diversified campaigns at the same time with no worries about fraud and misuses. By defining coupon usage limits your budget is secured, and your marketers can focus on testing and searching. Additionally, the Dashboard supports your team with a set of charts and metrics with current stats.

Social media are everywhere, and they don't cost a thing. If your CRM is up-to-date with customer's data from social channels, you can run less-costly campaigns and reward with a discount each client who has shared your message across the social network. With a little bit of custom code, you can use automatic distribution and send coupons straight to their mailboxes after they shared your social activity. Moreover, you can group customers by a particular social channel and monitor which performs best.

See some examples of referral programs:

• Reward referrer for every attracted customer.
• Reward the referrer if he attracts at least 10 customers.
• There are 2 different rewards for the referrer to get, depending on the number of attracted customers.

You can use metadata to perform customer segmentation based on the birthday date attribute. This way you can send codes to both customers who are celebrating birthday on the selected date or in the chosen month. The next step is setting up automatic distribution triggered every time a new customer enters the birthday segment. 

You can also use built-in MailChimp integration to automatically send personalized birthday coupons to customers. Use data-based automation which sends subscribers a special birthday message with coupon code based on their MailChimp birthday list field and Voucherify segment rules.
