Hi Julio
While distributing the Physical TripleClicks Gift Cards has it's own benefits I find Distributing Digital TripleClicks Gift Cards a lot more easier and FUN for me. Both methods of distribution however are great and serve their respective Audiences well when done well. Gery himself endorses it as a great marketing method for pitching business opportunities because they are "awkwardness-FREE"
THESE WILL GET YOU GOING
1. Curve Out your niche/ Know Your Target market/prospects
Doing a little bit of market research to know where the fish are is a very critical step before you start Digital Gift Card distribution. This helps you to eliminate waste because your cards are ultra targeted to your market.
2. Use Your Own Personal Blog or Website to Distribute Spiffy Gift Cards/Banners Online
How? By including text on your blog or website describing your qualifications for receiving a card. There are many ways of doing this without being duped. For example using it in your thank you page as a bonus gift after they make a purchase of your product or after they opt into your mailing list etc. Works even better if you have a good sales funnel.
3. Do A Joint Venture with a Fellow Blogger or Marketer
If you know of a TRUSTED site owner whose site is not only very active in terms of traffic but also targeted to your product. Ask him/her for a joint venture. Send him the Digital Gift cards at no cost to him plus Instructions for redemption then tell him to distribute them for FREE as bonus give a ways to his loyal subscribers or customers. He WINS and you WIN. This is a great FREE way to advertise without spending a dime.
4. Follow the THE 1-a-DAY Distribution Plan
This works for both the digital and the physical gift cards.Why is this Important? This if done on a regular basis will generate new PRMs on a regular basis--quite possibly several of them a week. This works great because you brought them into TripleClicks FREE and once they are in and experience the sweetness of TriplClicks or Pricebenders you stand to win and make good residuals from every TripleClicks activity they get into including ECA signup plus tons of VP for you.
5. Track Your Results
Every successful marketer knows that if you don't track your results to see how effective your campaign is running. It is literally like throwing money away. You can't afford to throw your hard earned cash just like that. SAVE YOUR CASH by tracking! SFI has deployed some great tracking report for every card that you distribute and gets redeemed.

Each card distributed fetches you 10 (Action)VP. That is 300 bonus VP for every 30 Gift cards distributed plus you also get a prestigious DistribuSTAR leaders badge. Great stuff huh!
6. Work With Your Down line
One great method of distributing the Digital Gift Cards is one that is often either ignored or neglected and that is by showing your team how to do it. Please note that this method especially works great when you lead by example. When your team sees that you are doing great by the DistribuSTAR badge on your wall, they too will want to emulate what you do. This is very effective and doesn't cost a penny.
7. Use Social sites that you subscribe to such as Facebook, Google+, Tweeter etc to advertise your Gift Cards. If you are using Facebook for example make sure you post your ads once a day to groups that share in the same interest hence targeting your niche. Join the group first before blasting your ads because if you don't you risk being banned from the groups.
8. Use Online Forums
There are dozens or Forums like the Worrier Forum which is very active that you can use to post your Ads but again the rule of the game of thumb is NEVER NEVER blast your Ads before getting to connect and rapport with the members first. You will be spamming people by simply blasting away and no one will pay attention to your Ads.
9. Advertise if you Can(PAID)
Without a shadow of a doubt this method is in my opinion the fastest in bringing results if you know how to do it well.
You may advertise your Digital Gift Cards if you know about CPA(Cost Per Action) offers or PPC(Pay per click) or E-zine Advertising which is also very effective in getting your message across because it is highly targeted. If you can't afford paid advertising for now then use safe lists and traffic exchange sites or start/create a blog which may take a bit of time but worth it.
In conclusion while Digital advertising or Distribution of Gift Cards is great and can prove very EFFECTIVE in bringing in PRMS and GREAT Residuals for Life I would like to end by quoting Gery's word of caution here:
"Distributing gift cards online to unknown persons is risky. This is because it's difficult to know if people are who they say their are online. Thus, someone could get a card out of you posing to be one person, then another card from you by posing to be another person, and another and another.A determined person could potentially rob you of dozens of cards! So when you set your qualifications for receiving a card from your blog or website, make sure you keep in mind that, sadly, there are dishonest people out there who might like to take advantage of your generosity."
With that said good Friends I Wish You All Much Blessings Ahead and a successful 2014 with Digital Gift Card Distribution.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
