TUCSON, AZ, September 02, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- As the holiday shopping season approaches, ArtFire has rolled out their new coupon code system, the first ever offered by a handmade venue. This system allows sellers to create customized special deals and promotions so for buyers and distribute them far and wide via twitter, email and blog widgets. ArtFire's coupon codes are fully customizable, so the seller has complete control over the type of promotion they'd like to run. With this feature, sellers can do everything from setting a percentage or dollar amount off an order to arranging a free gift with select purchase. They can also build gift certificates for their storefront using the coupon code system, which will be especially useful come the holidays. ArtFire members can track the popularity of their coupon codes using statistical information in the coupon management panel to better improve their business.
"ArtFire couldn't let members go into the fourth quarter without this powerful new feature," said John Jacobs, CEO of ArtFire.com. "We know that ArtFire members will greatly benefit from coupon codes and gift certificates and we are excited to roll them out for the community."
"Handmade sellers have been asking for coupon codes for a long time," said Tony Ford, COO of ArtFire.com. "No other handmade venue has built a tool as robust and customizable as this, and we know our artisans will use it to its fullest capabilities."
