Below I describe 3 creative ways to sign up TC members:
IF YOU HAVE A CAMERA AND TAKE QUITE GOOD PHOTOS
Method A:
You need:
- To stay close to a public place that a lot of people go to, like the beach or a park
- Your camera
- A pen and notebook
What you do:
Either ask people if you can take a photo of them or a member of their family, or just do it, and then ask them for their email address so you can send them the photo or photos, and that there is no charge.
If they ask why there is no charge, tell them you enjoy taking photos and at the same time that you send people the photo or photos you get to promote a link to a wonderful online shopping site. Tell them it’s just a link and that they don’t have to visit the site, but that you still appreciate being able to include the link when you send people their photos.
Most people will appreciate your honesty and when they get their email from you may just check that link out! You may even have piqued their curiosity (when you tell them your intentions while taking their photo) and they may ask you to tell them more about TripleClicks.
Method B:
The same as Method A except email them a TripleClicks gift card at the same time that you email them their photo or photos.
Method C:
The same as Method A except have TripleClicks gift cards with you too. Tell people you enjoy taking photos and that they get two gifts if they help you continue to enjoy taking photos – a free photo or free photos that you email them, and a gift card.
Method D:
In October or early November, take a friend with you dressed as Santa Claus. Also have some little packets of sweets (candies) with you. Take pictures of children (or their parents if they want a photo with Santa Claus too!), give the children the sweets, give the parents TripleClicks gift cards, tell the parents that there are many great Christmas gifts and Christmas items they could buy at TripleClicks, get email addresses, email the photos to the parents, along with your link to TripleClicks or along with a TripleClicks gift card and with some links to specific products that would make great Christmas gifts or links to items that would come in handy at Christmas time.
MAKE PAPER PLANES AND PAPER BOATS
Method A:
You need:
- To stay close to a public place that many children and their parents go to, and that preferably has a river, pond, dam, or lake too.
- Have many copies of a Wave3 flyer with you (with your TC Gateway referral link)
What you do:
Make paper planes and paper boats out of the flyers – or even out of plain paper - and give them out to children. When you give the paper planes and paper boats to the kids also give them a Wave3 flyer and ask them to give it to their parents – maybe ask that they give the flyer to their parents first, and then come back and fetch their free paper plane or paper boat. Or if the parents are with the children or nearby, then just give the flyer to the parent yourself, and a paper plane or paper boat to their child or children.
Method B:
The same as method A, except give out TripleClicks gift cards instead of flyers, or as well as flyers.
Method C:
The same as method A, except have TripleClicks gift cards with you instead of flyers, or as well as flyers, and some little packets of sweets (candy). Ask the parents if they have their phone or tablet with them, and tell them that if they sign up as a TripleClicks member right then, while you wait, that you’ll give them a free TripleClicks gift card and that they must use that redemption code when they get to that point in the sign-up form, and their child or children get not only a paper plane or paper boat, but also a little packet of sweets. Don’t make it sound like a chore or just a good exchange – explain the many benefits of being a TripleClicks member.
Method D:
The same as any of the above methods but do it in October or early November, and dress as Santa Claus.
START YOUR OWN GENERAL KNOWLEDGE TRIVIA WEBSITE
First research many questions and answers ahead of starting your new website. Divide your site’s page into categories and list the questions and answers. Include wrong answers – multiple choice.
On your site invite parents and teachers to copy and paste and use the lists as they wish. They need to email you for the correct answers to each question. When they do, email them back with the answers as well as information about the Knockout Trivia game at TripleClicks, and with a link to become a TripleClicks member. Include (or not) a TripleClicks gift card in your email too.
Display TripleClicks ads on your general knowledge trivia site, or have a small section in the sidebar of your site (or even at the very top of your site) where you explain the Knockout Trivia game at TripleClicks and give a link to TripleClicks (with your SFI ID number in that link, of course).
