WELCOME TO MARPLE GIFT VOUCHER.COM
A GIFT TO MARPLE
£1.41 BILLION LOST, HAVE YOU GOT ANY OF IT?
Gift vouchers are BIG business. According to 2005 estimates, produced by The Voucher Association, gift voucher sales in this country are currently worth around £1.41 billion per annum. The vast majority of this market is taken; by 20 or so multinational organisations and, as there are very few of these companies in Marple, almost all of this is spent outside the area or left unused in our handbags, wallets or bottom drawers.
This trend continues with the recent announcement that Post Office counters are to sell gift vouchers that can be redeem with many of the multi-national companies.
MARPLE GIFT VOUCHERS – 11 YEARS IN THE MAKING
The launch of the ‘Marple Gift Voucher Cheques' initiative, a town-wide gift voucher scheme launched in September 2005, will benefit many Marple businesses and traders by keeping all the revenue sold by marplegiftvoucher.com within the town. The scheme is the brainchild of Felix Soleto Murillo, owner of Murillo's Tapas & Wine Bar, with 81 businesses already registered.
The seeds for this scheme were planted 11 years ago, shortly after the opening of Murillo's. On consecutive evenings diners asked Felix if they could buy gift vouchers for Murillo's. This resulted in the now very successful www.restaurantsvouchers.com website, which currently has over 650 establishments from all over the country listed.
Demand for the Restaurants Voucher Cheque encouraged further thoughts, and the plan to develop new town-wide gift voucher schemes soon followed.
The first town to get such a scheme is Marple, Felix adopted home. The ‘Marple Gift Voucher Cheques' initiative is open to any Marple business, whether shop based or not, allowing such diverse companies such as driving schools, restaurants, take away, beauty parlours, travel agents, home improvements, fashion, D.I.Y, or any service provider like dentist, opticians etc, to become scheme partners.
The logo and welcoming window sticker will soon become very familiar sights around the town.
Given the huge existing market, it makes sense, therefore, that this new scheme has the potential to be very useful to shoppers and to help traders and service providers to keep the revenue generated within the local businesses community. Marple Gift Voucher Cheques are available in £25, £50, £75 & £100 denominations. The cheques are sold online at www.marplegiftvoucher.com and at Murillo's restaurants in Marple.
To register as a partner in the scheme is free. Partners receive free advertising on the marplegiftvoucher.com website as well as a free portal to advertise for all their staff needs totally free of charge.
There are definite plans in place for the launch very shortly of similar gift voucher scheme nationwide with www.uktownsgiftvoucher.com cheque.
