It's amazing how little info there is out there about CRE Loaded features/hacks. The book that costs $40 hardly covers anything in depth.
Here's a conversation about setting up gift certificates or vouchers on your site. If you have a CRE Loaded site, you should set this up. It's free, and just one more way that you can market your site by giving away free gift certificates to bloggers and popular social media account owners in exchange for a review or promotion on their site. This is a great way to build links and get some viral buzz going about your site.
Mahesh: Hello, how can I help you?
Srini Venkataramani: Hey Mahesh, a customer wants to buy a gift certificate from the site. How do I turn that feature on?
Mahesh: Hello Srini
Mahesh: You need to create a product for that and set model name as GIFT_25, GIFT_50 depending on the certificate price you want
Srini Venkataramani: Model number?? what is that?
Mahesh: Thats your product model number field , you will get that whe you create products through admin
Srini Venkataramani: Ok, trying now
Srini Venkataramani: I created a product with model GIFT_25. What should I set as price? How does it work, meaning, how will customer receive a code that is worth $25?
Mahesh: You can sell these product with any price and your customer can send this to there freind as a gift voucher
Srini Venkataramani: So when customer buys this gift cert, how will they send this to their friend? And how does the friend redeem the certificate?
Srini Venkataramani: Mahesh, are you there?
Mahesh: Hold on please
Srini Venkataramani: Sure
Mahesh: when customer buy it, its still pending then when admin gets payment they go to Gift voucher queue and select the voucher and redeem it so its released to the persons account
Mahesh: e they update the status to delivered first then gift voucher queue
Mahesh: then redeem it, after that the balance will be on the customer account to use or send to friend
Srini Venkataramani: Hmm..I guess it would be nice to have some kind of tutorial or screenshots of this process. Makes sense to me but a but confusing. I guess I can test this with a product priced at $0, right?
Mahesh: No I will suggest you to test with $0.01.
Srini Venkataramani: Ok, will do. Thanks for your help!!

Yeah yeah this blog is not about stocks, but well, who isn't interested in shares at some point or the other? If you aren't investing them yourself, and trust someone else to handle your money matters, good for you, ignore this post.
For those like me that try to dabble in everything and think men aren't just work machines and the concept of a career doesn't sink in too well, you are into stocks then, aren't you?
I've been following CNBC Fast Money and Mad Money (BOOYAH Cramer!) shows for some time now - about a year I'd say give or take, more because they are fun and keep me abreast of our economy which I like to do. But also for stock picks. I started a VERY conservative investor, reading books about value investments, buy and hold, Etc., but man, is trading addictive! I made 5 trades in the last week alone and luckily, all but one paid off (some more than 10%!) THANKS TO TIM SEYMOUR!!
