When that time comes around and you’re about to be another year older, did you know that many establishments will actually give you a discount or offer a free birthday promotion? Most people don’t know that, but one mom is taking the time to change that perception with her new website, Free Birthday Treats.
With over 2000 listings for a variety of birthday bonuses, there is bound to be something you can enjoy. They also have your pets and children covered with a variety of birthday discounts or free treats as well. Julie Northrop was kind enough to spend some time sharing with us some of what she has listed, as well as what inspired her website startup.
How did you come up with the idea for your website, Free Birthday Treats, and what do you offer?
I was sharing with friends what I did for my birthday and how I had saved money by using some birthday coupons. They started asking where they could sign up so I offered to send them emails with the links to join. I knew that if my friends and family wanted to know how to get these deals then so would millions of others. From there spawned the website, Free Birthday Treats.com which is a nationwide directory of businesses offering birthday freebies and discounts for all ages and even includes treats for pets. The site also provides other birthday related resources such as gift ideas, birthday services and birthday supplies.
When did you launch your website? What kind of growth has your website seen since then?
FreeBirthdayTreats.com was launched in January, 2007 with just over 500 nationwide birthday freebie listings. The site now has over 4,000 unique visitors a month and over 2,000 nationwide listings for birthday freebies and discounts. A new blog was established as well at the end of May which offers frugal birthday tips, featured businesses and weekly product reviews/giveaways.
