With all this chatter on Twitter about Causeon, has anyone received any response from the company? After looking at their Twitter account @causeonportland last comment was on Aug 23rd to be added onto wefolllow. Seriously? Site launch is on Wednesday. Again, if you are going to play with the big boys online you need to bring your equipment, including a BIG BAT. Plus, I not a big fan of the name Causeon. Immediately, you think Groupon copycat. If you want to be different, don't follow - lead.

We give those gift cards out to your friends and families during the holidays and special occasions. Aside from the B2B cause marketing reasons already pointed out by Joe Waters, Megan Strand, and Ian aka "CompanyStarter" TisBest Charity Gift Cards helps educate and teach people the practice of giving. 1. TisBest Gift Cards helps people become aware that there are charities out there for every cause under the sun. We all need to help each other to make this a better world. 2. It forces the recipient to research and learn about the different charities before donating to the cause. 3. TisBest Gift Cards empowers the individual by giving them a choice to chose the charity that speaks to their heart. 4. You can pick out a custom design 5. It's a simple and easy gift that gives back I especially like giving TisBest Charity Gift Cards to people who have never made a donation to a cause in their lives. Once they go through the process of learning about the cause, picking a charity, donating and becoming instant philanthropists they begin to understand the importance of sharing and giving. They feel good about themselves -- which is priceless and cannot be bought in stores. Thanks Joe for highlighting TisBest Charity Gift Card. You Da Man!
