this shop now has a new thread.

The Cool Rewards Program
Here's how the Cool Rewards Program works for shops. So you advertise on your shop that you do the Cool Rewards Program. Anybody who has the Cool Rewards card can now buy bonus stuff with their Cool Rewards card points. You earn points on your Rewards card for every point customers use.

Make a list on your shop page of special items that can only be bought with Cool Rewards card points. Every point that the customers give you, you will have on YOUR Rewards card.

To register your shop for the Cool Rewards Program, you must first have your own personal Cool Rewards card. After that, fill in this form:

Shop Name:
Are you going to put that you do the Rewards program on your shop?:

Here's how the Cool Rewards Program works for people. So you get your own Rewards card. You can then use your points to buy special items at shops that do the Cool Rewards Program. You start off with 25 points, and to earn more, you can make quality projects and share them here, or you can start your own shop, get the Rewards program for your shop, and earn points that way. So fill in this form if you would like a Cool Rewards card:

Username:
Are you going to be making quality projects, or starting your own shop?:

Cool, right? It's like a cycle of Rewards! And without complications!

Shops that use the Cool Rewards Program:
The Olde School Everything Shop

You do realise this is just basically a small version of the shop directory. Just register your shop there it is one of the stickyed posts up the top of requests

Frequently Asked Questions

1. “Why will my shop be benefited from joining SC? Plus, how can you ensure that shops help other shops? It seems unlikely that such a system could run smoothly.
Additionally, I am wondering about the CRP program works - it seems more directed toward helping customers get items instead of helping shops grow.”
-@OTSFan123

The ShopCard will help other shops by advertising for them in their signature. That's what the ShopCard is all about. You must display that you have a ShopCard in your signature so that other curious users will want to know what it is, and then they will come across the list of shops here in the ShopCard. Or, if there are failing shops in the ShopCard, all ShopCard users will need to advertise for that shop in their signature. Also, I'm going to add a worker system, so that any jobless person who wants to find the perfect job for them, I can just give them a shop that seems to fit them, and that will benefit that shop, too, because of more staff.

The Cool Rewards Program is like you said- a Rewards program. It IS more directed toward helping customers get items, however, if THEY have a ShopCard, they have to find a shop that uses the CPR. That will attract more popularity towards the shop.

Right now, because I only have one other shop other than mine in the ShopCard, it doesn't look very liable, but once more people join, the shops will be more united and hopefully, because of ShopCard, shops will grow.

2. “Extract from main post:
“If one shop fails, another shop will help. They will advertise for you, and help you get more customers.”
Please explain exactly the manner in which another shop would advertise the failing shop, and what shops would be classified as “failing.”
Extract from main post:
“If your shop just started, the ShopCard will help advertise!”
I would also like you to explain exactly the manner in which the ShopCard will help advertise shops that had just started, and what shops would be classified as “just started.” Information is a great asset and shops will benefit from it

Answer:
OK, those are also great questions!

Every member of the ShopCard will have to advertise the ShopCard in their signature. This will draw curious users to the ShopCard thread, and the curious users will see the list of shops (I know there's not really a whole LIST of shops right now, but I'm hoping more people will join). Also, if there are failing shops (failing shops are shops that get maybe one order per week or just basically abandoned, and have no staff left, or maybe just a few staff) then the members of the ShopCard will advertise in their signature that shop.

Shops that literally just started, have maybe one staff member, don't have a banner yet, ect., are classified ‘just started’.

Signatures are a great way to get customers, so that's the way that I am choosing to help failing shops.

No, it's not. It's actually for shops who need more staff/customers/

Well. If you are going to join the UFSS this may be a temporary thing. As we have a staffing system there. But I like the idea and I have an Idea myself will be back

bam a licence

use this instead so they can hold it in their siggy's too!

Worker System

Are you jobless? Are you wanting to help shops out? With the Worker System, you can get a job and seriously help some shops out. Even if you run another shop, if you think you can manage, you can fill in this form to become a worker-in-waiting:

this ShopCard isn't actually going to be part of the UFSS, just the other one. But that's a pretty good idea, I'll use that!

Happy your using it. The first part of UFSS just launched check the requests to find it

Interesting! However, please provide a better explanation of ShopCard's liability, its benefits, and how its system works. Why will my shop be benefited from joining SC? Plus, how can you ensure that shops help other shops? It seems unlikely that such a system could run smoothly.
Additionally, I am wondering about the CRP program works - it seems more directed toward helping customers get items instead of helping shops grow. If you can come up with a smooth system that would work in benefiting shops and promoting shops, I would be more than willing to join!

I'm sorry I haven't included this stuff in the thread, I should've, and I didn't realize that people would want to know the answer to this.

The idea seems clearer now - firstly, the CRP program seems like it might be a helpful program, even if it doesn't attract directly. But then again, just because you saw the post doesn't mean you'll post there - so I will support it.

The worker system sounds like an EXTREMELY awesome idea :-)

However, the signature part still remains unclear. The banner for Vectoria Shop is too large to fit anything else in my signature. Would I have to change the banner?

Edit: Hold on, I"m checking

No. You can still advertise YOUR shop however you want, just above it, please advertise the ShopCard. Anyway, to be in the SC, you have to fill in the form.

I'm aware of such. However, I cannot fit the ShopCard into my signature without BBCode, which I do not know, unfortunately.
