~•*• APRIL SHOWERS SHOPPING FESTIVAL •*• ~

[#1]

Spring is soon approaching and it seems to be a good time to "Spring Clean" our shops... to let the freshness of new products and new creativity come in..

In view of the above, we would like to invite our lovely team member shops to please come and list themselves to participate in this shopping by choosing to offer any of the following to the buyers -

1. Free Worldwide Shipping (Create Coupon : STTAPRSHOPFESTSHIPS4FREE)
2. Shop wide Flat 20% Discount (Create Coupon : STTAPRSHOPFEST20OFF)

5. Shop wide Flat 50% Discount (Create Coupon : STTAPRSHOPFEST50OFF)

Festival Dates 11th to 15th April 2014

Here are certain little things you must commit to before you don the cap of becoming a participating shop –
1. Be a member of the Simple Trading Team

2. Including a minimum of “Simple Trading April Showers Shopping Festival” logo on your shop banner, or better still – use the new banner template provided by the team captain during this period.

3. Create a coupon code which co-relates to the kind of offer you are offering.

4. Your shop must not be in a vacation mode during this period and prompt reply to consumer inquiries is appreciated.

5. In view of popularizing this festival, each shop willing to sign up as a participant must send convo’s to 60 team members – the script and the members to be convo’ed will be informed to you by the team captain.

6. Each shop participant needs to make two treasuries - one for all members excluding yourself and one from your category of signup including yourself. Both the treasuries need to be tagged “simpletradingteam”, “april showerbs shopping festival”, and “simple trading team”. The description must contain –


✿ Now let’s hear what the participating shop’s gain –
Exposure – but isn’t that like the most obvious thing! Read on .. When we exposure we mean the real deal –
~ Email blasts to an apt consumer / shop owner audience of over 1500 people will be sent DAILY including direct links to your shops, showcasing the deals and your items.
~ Items from the participating shops will be treasured various times during the fellow participating shops as well as the captain / leaders for constant promotion
~ The participating shops will be featured on that week’s SHOPPING FESTIVAL SPECIAL BNS / BNR boards for extra visibility. This way, any transactions made on the board can be used for securing a spot in the next round
~ Heightened views, hearts and likes will ensure a steady traffic to your shop even during the festival period.
~ Wearing a team logo on your shop banner makes your shop appear to be a part of a larger group and adds more value and responsible feeling.

✿ All of this sounds awesome… and what’s in there for the shoppers ?
Need we say much ? Just breeze through the various shops signed up and avail the wonderful deals one after the other !

Oh, boy...

Are we doing 1 treasury for our group and 1 for the whole event or 2 group and 1 event?

I made 2 for the 20% group, but nothing for the event. I'll get right on that if I need to!

Also, I searched treasuries for the 20% and found only 10 returns on my query " FLAT 20 PERCENT DISCOUNT - 11 to 15 APRIL ~•*• APRIL SHOWERS SHOPPING FESTIVAL •*• ~." That's only 1/3 of the required number!!

Anyway, please let me know if I am derelict in my treasury duty so I can correct ASAP.

Thanks.

[Former_Member]

Oh, yeah! I almost forgot to say THANK YOU!!! to everyone for including my merchandise in your treasuries. I know you had to include me, but that's beside the point. I appreciate all of you for MAKING the treasuries and spending the necessary EFFORT to promote them. YOU ROCK!!

Kate darling I am using your wonderful blog link in my email blasts - I dont know if you saw it yet ?

[Former_Member]

Hmmm. Vishruti, I haven't looked yet... I try to only check stats at the end of the day, otherwise I fall into the "how about now? (look) How about now? (look again) (repeat)" trap.

I did send you an email from my gmail account, so you should have my correct address now. Have you seen that?

[IndianJournals]

how is going ????
how are the email's ?? did you all receive them ?

[IndianJournals]

Kate you had to make 2 treasuries for your category only

I know what you mean by not getting treasuries when typing a tag on the search string - I have sent several reminders and enormous instructions ! Any suggestions on what more I can do so that everyone uses the correct mandatory tags ?
