giffgaff xmas cards !

bladesman1889

i know its a little early yet but how about some giffgaff xmas cards :--)

what i was thinking was a tree design on the front of the card various giffgaff decorations, eg boubles with a single letter that spelled out giffgaff.

with/or perhaps a pile of sim card parcels underneath the tree ! (packed in their little white envelopes) ect ect :--]

Haha, cute. They could have sim cards stuck inside so you could send them to all your family members!

giffgaff would probably have to charge to cover the costs, but if they weren't too expensive I'd buy some!

would look very cool . but not sure the extra cost involved will be benificial.

If you have a large contact list for Christmas Cards it could work rather well, playing the numbers game if only 10% were interested it would be great.

That's quite an interesting idea. It could appear in the spread the word feature and people could pay for them out of points or credit. A more proactive way to recommend a friend. It could also apply to birthday cards, send someone a giff gaff card for their birthday with a sim inside with 'free fiver for their birthday' credit when they activate it. Definitely give a moon pig a run for their money.

. I personally think its much better on x-mas day itself, GG just send 1 MMS message to all there customers saying Merry Christmas 🙂 , Hmm, makes you wonder, maybe on xmas day, GG should select around say 50 members and give them free credit. That would be good, going down to check the post, seeing the xmas card, with a note under the tree saying, "GG have selected to give you £10 free credit" 😉

free x mas credit would be mint. im getting excited.

Maybe we can get people to design a few Christmas cards?

Use the pixel to create the holly leaves or christmas baubles, a christmas tree, you name it.

I think the main priority needs to be that it is a proper Christmas card, with a tiny logo somewhere on the left- or right-hand bottom corner.

Maybe some spiel about giffgaff on the back, in between the address and where you put your note.

The best ones, if there are any, would get printed and people can request X amount of cards, either for free or a small sum which we give to charity?

Something like that?

Sounds good! Also like the 'quick reply' functionability.

dansette

Awesome idea. Especially with the sim-cards inside. If GG sold them, and then we gave them out, the network would get loads more subscribers. I like it!

That would be megacool.. I wouldn't mind designing a few.. Gg christmas cards Is definitly a cool idea..!

Couldn't you do e-cards?

vincent

Sure you could. However, any design made and posted here, could simply be used as an e-card straight away if that is what you want to do right?

I quite like the idea. As for cost I don't actually think it would cost that much. Giffgaff would be able to narrow down which customers use the service all the time and those that use it occasionally.

In fact thinking about it I don't think any network send Christmas cards out to it's customers, so certainly some good PR to be made

vincent

Well, hold off on making designs just yet as the idea is evolving.

I am now thinking of creating a new 'seasons greeting' envelop for the sims. So that when you send a sim to a friend, the envelop that comes thourgh their mail box will be all Christmassy/Seasons greettingy and will include a sim as well.

So not only do you give them a seasons greeting, you also give them the gift of giffgaff 🙂

I'm changing it to 'Season Greeting' because not every one is big on Christmas.

PLUS not all customers will celebrate christmas from other religous groups but do have the holiday off. lots of companies now just send a message out saying season greetings with a snowy picture on it to cater for all its customers around the christmas period.
