The Get Paid To Shop & Earn 2% Cashback Launched On Market America's Webportal
MA is going to ROCK Black Friday & Cyber Monday....everyone is shopping their little hearts out now thanks to the "Get Paid To Shop" program on the MA portal! The icon with a dollar showing the "maCash" logo shows shoppers what they'll get back for their purchase. It doesn't matter if the item is an MA brand or from any of the hundreds of Partner Store merchants participating in the program. Thanks to Microsoft FAST the new search is incredible! The values are even shown if someone is Comparison Shopping or just searching.
I've been playing with the features all day to get myself acquainted with the new service, as a Customer Manager I have to be able to tell my customers what it can offer them and where to go. The only issue I've had is finding the "Invite A Friend" link so that the customer can refer their friends & family to shop the MA portal and.....earn an additional 1/2% for whatever they buy on an ongoing basis. So far I've only seen the link on an a homepage flash ad. As I understand it, the referral program is not just a one time deal, as long as the invited party confirms that they were invited and identifies that person then that will entitle them to the extra earnings. Now that's cool, I don't know of anyone the pays you to refer a friend!
In addition to Preferred Customers getting their 2% cashback that can be redeemed once it accumulates to $50, they can save so much money with special offers from our partners that is usually highlighted on Loren's blog My Fashion Cents or the company blog. And savvy customers can shop the online Black Friday & Cyber Monday sales to save even more and if they're really smart they will have coupon codes from sites like Coupon Mountain or Retail Me Not for knocking down prices even further. That's not counting any free or discounted shipping offers which is also something the MA site can show consumers!
This kind of innovative shopping system is surely going to rise the tide for all of the merchants Market America has partnered with because the entire field of UnFranchise Owners and several million customers will be making purchases to earn some money back for what they are already going to do. It's a safe smart frugal way to shop for holiday gifts that anyone hit by the recession will appreciate and there is no cap on the cashback or restrictions like for business supplies.
Once I get up to the NorthEast Regional Convention this weekend I'll know more from the company. If you are a an entrepreneur that wants a web or e-commerce business this is "the" event to get to and it's so perfectly timed before the Holiday Season kicks in. Email me for an admission ticket or miss the boat for the close to sold-out convention that draws thousands of attendees from across the country. Our region has the third biggest training in the entire company next to the two main corporate sponsored events. And I'm sure this Paid To Shop launch will be a big factor in the weekend's training info.
Gotta rest up for the crazy weekend ahead.......and 2 1/2 hour drive!!
