Midwinter Co. review for StoreYa pop ups, Email popups

July 24, 2014

I hate to be a jerk but here goes. (This company offered this app for free for 5 star ratings, FYI.) For what this is meant to do, it works great. It does work, it is easy to use, and installs quickly. Unfortunately, there is a major flaw that you should consider in this concept. Because it does not directly hook into your page, your current fans can't get the deal and they will feel like that is unfair. Your current facebook fans will be smart, and what will happen is this: They will see that you are offering something to non-fans. They can, in the same pop up, unlike your facebook page, and then like it again, to get the code. Therefore, your stats will look as if you got an extra 55 likes a day, but your facebook numbers show the same number of fans total. It's because people are unliking, to like again, to get the code. When I talked to the app designers, this was the response: "If you have concerns regarding this, then I would recommend to add another social button or email text field which will help you gain more leads."
