Kick-Start Your Next Rebate Program
Rebate programs are a great way to build brand awareness, strengthen customer loyalty, boost sales, and reach price-conscious consumers. Such programs allow retailers to maintain the cost of a product while offering a payment, once certain conditions are met, back to the consumer at a later date.
According to Consumer Reports, nearly 70% of customers take advantage of rebate programs yearly. While some consumers may never “cash in” on the rebate, the perceived value of the offer is often enough to entice consumers to purchase a product.In order to run a successful program, in terms of redemption rates, the higher the perceived value of the rebate, the more likely the consumer is to gather the necessary paperwork andfollow the outlined rules and regulations required for redemption.
But how do you get started? Rebate programs often require a number of items to be mailed to a specific address, within a specific time frame, meeting any number of criteria, in order to ultimately receive a rebate check in the mail. Partnering with a company that has a track-record of managing rebate programs will increase your likelihood of success.
