Sales and the 'Talent Magnet'

A lot is written about being a ‘Talent Magnet’, either as a company, or as President. It’s all good practice – listen, mentor, reward, provide clear goals and career maps. Good practice for the employer, but what about the employee?

Gift Cards For A Cause is a non-profit organization that has partnered with DCI Incentives to provide a way for corporations to promote their corporate giving initiatives. The GiftCardsForACause.com fundraising program is the easiest way for your employees to support your company's favorite non-profit organization throughout the year simply by shopping for your every day needs like groceries, clothing, and casual dining, as well as items for your home, family and for special occasions that call for gift giving.

Every time you buy gift cards from GiftCardsForACause.com, up to 17% of the value of your order is donated to the non-profit organization you designate.

GiftCardsForACause.com is perfect for:

  • Corporations who want to enhance their corporate giving initiatives
  • Fundraising initiatives for large or small organizations like schools, team sports, local charity events, etc.
  • Non-profit organizations who are looking for additional FREE marketing exposure.

GiftCardsForACause.com is a turn-key program that is easy for you to administer and easy for your group to participate in. Our program allows you to donate to your favorite non-profit organization on an ongoing basis, with virtually no out-of-pocket expense. When you buy gift cards through our Gift Card Store, you simply use these gift cards to make purchases that you would otherwise be paying for with cash or credit card. The only difference is.... You are also making a donation!!

If an average family spends $800 per month on groceries, gasoline, clothing and household items, and another $140 on dining out and entertainment, you could be donating approximately $375 per year to your favorite organization. Add in hotel stays for vacations, gifts and special occasions, and you could be donating well over $500 per year. Now suppose everyone in your company, school, neighborhood, or other organization did the same? These families could easily raise as much as $25,000 - $60,000 per year for your cause.

DCI Incentives' solutions will provide your company with:

  • Delivered results
  • Improved Performance
  • Increased sales
  • Greater Loyalty
  • Effective spend of dollars (performance based)
  • Competitive edge
