It's been Halloween; you know what that means...

Black Friday is closing in on you. You don’t have to worry, though; there’s plenty of time left to create your amazing Black Friday campaign. In this article, I’ll set you up with a convenient solution to create, distribute, and validate your own digital coupons within the blink of an eye. Follow my lead.

  1. Create appealing mobile campaigns/Coupons Coupontools Builder on a laptop.
    With the Coupontools platform, creating appealing digital Coupons is easy. Decide whether you want to use a normal discount coupon or a Gamified Coupon. For Gamified Coupons, you have a choice between a ‘Spin Wheel,’ a ‘Slot Machine’ or ‘Scratch and Win.’ You’re able to either choose one of the many tempting template Coupons or design a Coupon completely adjusted to your own taste and needs. Every aspect of the coupon is customizable. If you’ve chosen for the Gamified Coupons, you’re able to predetermine the winner's odds. With the Coupontools Platform, you’re able to set up an expiration date for your Coupon. If you distribute a Coupon, you’re in charge of the period it remains usable.

    Digital Black Friday Coupon types:
  1. Claim requirements
    For both options, you might want to set up ‘claim methods.’ It’s a requirement that has to be fulfilled to claim the Coupon. This how the indispensable customer data drips in. It’s essential. Otherwise, you’d be handing out discounts with nothing in return. 

    These are the various claim options:
  • User Registration
    Ask your customers to enter personal data before claiming the Mobile Coupon.
  • Share on Facebook
    Your customers have to share the Mobile Coupon on their Facebook Page before they're able to claim the Coupon.
