Great News!

The Association has started a Gift Card Program for its members. You've seen them on display at the big national retail chains. Most likely you've even bought and received them as gifts yourself. But did you know that high-quality, high-profit gift card systems are now available to our members?

WHY SELL GIFT CARDS?????

1. Gift Cards are often the most profitable square foot of selling space in the store.
2. Members report sales increases of two to ten times over paper gift certificates
3. Cash flow is enhanced by collecting payment prior to delivery of product or services
4. Cards continually build brand awareness and customer loyalty as "billboards" in the wallet-your store becomes a destination
5. Easy to activate and use by both merchant and customer
6. Can be used to handle merchandise returns for store credit -keeps cash in store
7. The average value for gift cards is $50 up from $44 in the previous year
8. #1 reason for buying a gift card is now birthdays
9. Consumers buy them on impulse from displays near the check-out counter
10. Most gift card recipients make more than one trip to the store to use up the value of their card.

The Lawn & Garden Dealers Association has two programs, both designed for members who are looking for a market-proven, easy to implement, low-cost way to get started selling gift cards.
