Sell more holiday gift cards with AI

Write the table tents, social posts, emails and staff lines that push holiday gift card sales from Black Friday through Christmas Eve.

The problem

Gift cards are some of the easiest holiday money a restaurant can make, but most places put up one sign and forget about it. Without a plan for Black Friday, the weeks before Christmas and last-minute buyers, a lot of those sales go to chains with bigger marketing.

Step by step

1. 1Decide your offer with the owner, such as a bonus card with a set purchase, and the dates it runs. Check your POS supports it and that your state's gift card rules are followed.
2. 2Paste the offer, dates and your restaurant's style into the prompt below to get table-tent copy, social posts, an email and a short line for servers and bartenders.
3. 3Make the signs and post graphics in Canva, and put your online gift card link everywhere people can buy.
4. 4Brief staff at pre-shift so every check gets a quick mention, and track sales by week in your POS.
5. 5Send a last-minute reminder a few days before Christmas for people who still need a gift.

Copy-paste prompt

I run [restaurant name / type, e.g., a sports bar and grill] in [city]. Holiday gift card offer: [e.g., buy $50, get a $10 bonus card]. Dates: [start and end]. Bonus card rules: [e.g., good Jan 2–Mar 31, dine-in only]. Online gift card link: [LINK]. Our style: [e.g., casual, fun, local]. Write: (1) table-tent copy under 40 words; (2) four social posts spread from Black Friday to Christmas Eve; (3) a short email to our guest list; (4) a one-sentence line servers can say when dropping the check; (5) a last-minute reminder text. Use only the offer and dates I give, and include the bonus card rules in plain words.
