Like me, I’m sure you’re proud of your community and want to see it thrive. With the strains on the budgets of individuals and local city budgets, communities are grappling with finding innovative ways they can support their communities, increase their tax base, and build revenue for their businesses to have money flow back into the community.
Megachip’s new product, MEGACOUPONS, is based on the Groupon business model, offers an exciting new opportunity to do just that — help communities to help each other. With MEGACOUPONS, organizations can rally around their local businesses and generate more customers, thereby increasing revenue and dollars which stay in the community. MEGACOUPONS also provide the advertisers — retailers, restaurants, service companies and others — with a way to donate a percentage of their profits to local charities or other designated organizations.
This benefits local groups which are looking to improve their community’s economic base and well-being – and do it with minimal time and effort.
For example, the local chamber of commerce. MegaChip does everything that goes on behind the scenes. MegaChip services include helping to design the online coupon, set up and maintain the ordering and tracking systems, and provide reporting. All the local chamber has to do is let the advertiser know that this opportunity is available, and perhaps organize this new effort as a community initiative. And another benefit to MEGACOUPONS is that this can be offered as a special perk to induce members to join.
Other examples:
• The local Rotary or Kiwanis club which wants to fundraise for special projects
• A non-profit that is looking for something to offer their donor base or revitalize communities
• A local church or synagogue looking for a new fundraising ideas and funding of existing programs
All organizations benefit by having a fundraising effort that can go on as long as they want, rather than plow all efforts into a single event that is time-consuming and has limited opportunities to raise dollars.
Do something great for your community that will have lasting effects and revitalize your town. Do MEGACOUPONS!
