What does GIftsOnTime.com do?
In only one hour, GiftsOnTime.com enables professional service providers to select and schedule client gifts, celebrating any occasion, to be delivered throughout the year. The web-based platform for targeted future gifting empowers professional service providers with a time efficient marketing tool to build positive relationships with clients, contacts, and staff members.
How are they different?
GiftsOnTime.com introduces a new concept in web-based gifting – “future” gifting. The platform makes the onerous task of client gifting actually time efficient for busy accountants, stock brokers, etc. It’s truly a turnkey marketing tool for busy professionals to improve client retention and stand out from the crowd by sending personalized gifts to celebrate important client occasions – as opposed to generic newsletters or holiday cards, which have simply become white noise.
Why could GIftsOnTime.com be BIG?
In addition to providing a revolutionary marketing tool for professional service providers, GiftsOnTime can also be utilized as a platform for employee appreciation management for human resource professionals to manage staff birthdays and employment anniversaries. Showing appreciation for employees with thoughtful gifts can assist in creating a positive work environment and in cultivating and retaining a more loyal staff, particularly in an economic climate where raises and bonuses may not be possible.
The platform can really be used by any consumer looking for a time efficient way to manage gifting for their friends & family.
How they plan to make money:
Via a small surcharge on the shipping, though given that the monetization model is not yet formalized, GiftsOnTime.com would prefer this information is not published.
