Enter your promotional statement or question for that image. 3. The system will generate a link for your stack. 4. Add a promo code at the end of your stack to further enhance its stickiness.

How Do You iki? From the getiki.com dashboard, users can view how many people swiped and how they swiped on each iki. "Do you like these jeans? Swipe yes. Would you buy these jeans if they were 30% off? Swipe yes. Would you like to order them now? Swipe yes. Do you want to share this with a friend? Swipe no." iki works on any platform and no downloads or apps are needed. It's easy to make changes to the stack, add or delete ikis, change the text, or modify your promo code or link. "This is the next big thing in digital marketing and the best part is, you don't need to be a Senior Media Strategist to use it," Taddeo concludes. Capitalizing on "the swipe phenomenon."
