Even with all the concern of our where the US economy is headed, people will not be thwarted in their observance of national Holidays. Hey, who doesn't want to take some time off to spend time with (away) from friends and family, just to enjoy the season and the joy it can bring!
Well, even amidst such festivities, it never ceases to amaze me at how innovative free enterprise can be. Case in point the "Nation Regift Day", which officially commences on December 18! Guess who stands to profit from promoting this day? Yep, that would be the shipping industry!
From a recent UPS email promotion, "It’s the one day of the year when you’re encouraged to send your friends a gift that you simply couldn't’t throw away—or use." It goes on how "In the spirit of the season, we present UPSRegifter.com, a fun website where you can share pictures of gifts you weren’t quite ready to love. With the UPS Regifter, you can choose from our gallery of unusual presents, or submit your own."
Yep, you can officially say, "I've seen it all!" It still cannot be denied that more and more business are turning to the Internet to stretch their marketing dollars and it will be such adaptation that will determine who ends up being the most financially fit during the next quarter stock reports!
