Selling Gift Cards? Data proves you should be!
Research has just come out stating that people spent 3.6x more on gift cards in Q4 2021 than in 2020.
Why? People are already buying gifts during the holiday period and a gift card saves time and effort.
Simply offering or promoting gift cards more can increase your profits.
Building brand association the Red Bull way.
There is possibly no one better than RedBull when it comes to brand association. In a stunt that may never be topped, Red Bull sent Felix Baumgartner, and Austrian skydiver to the edge of outer space and let him jump.
The jump was live streamed on YouTube attracting 8 million viewers and Baumgartner broke several records, including fosters free fall, highest jump, and the sound barrier (being the first human to do so without a vehicle).
This is brand association at it’s finest. You can’t help but associate Red Bull with extreme sports.
What are you aligning your brand with?
