The Laughing Cabin review for Spin‑a‑Sale

Nov. 19, 2017

I am currently enrolled in the 10-day free trial period, and so far, I am pleased with how this app functions. It is easy to set-up, and I began getting e-mail subscribers within hours -- in conjunction with a paid social media ad campaign. What I noticed is that the subscribers are actual people who are likely to become customers and not "spammy" e-mail subscribers -- which has happened to me before when I've signed up for other marketing apps. One drawback (at least with the basic plan) is that there is nothing to keep visitors from re-entering their e-mail address and spinning the wheel more than one time. Though they can only use one coupon code per order, they can continue to spin until they get the highest discount coupon code available. This activity shows up on the dashboard which is how I know this is happening. It has happened twice, so that's not a deal breaker, but it's clear that people who click on the spinner will try to find a work-around. I don't mind someone spinning for the highest discount if it means a sale, and I realize that they (Spin-a-Sale) do have a plan that limits the number of times a particular coupon can be awarded. But, this is the reason I gave this app 4 stars instead of 5. If you are aware that this happens before installing the app, you can take it into consideration when you're choosing "prize" amounts to award. I would say that for every 25-50 people who visit my site, I am gaining one new subscriber using this app. I am pleased because the subscribers are "quality" leads that may actually turn into customers through follow-up e-newsletter marketing, and it is adding value to the $$ that I am spending for a paid ad campaign. Not only are visitors coming to the store, but thanks to the Spin-a-Sale app, they are "real" subscribers, and they are subscribing at a more consistent rate. Overall, I appreciate the thought that when into this app. Thank you!
