Story Idea: The Business Lesson Behind a 4-Year-Old eGift Card

Read Why We Are Flying to Texas for THIS!


This is a story about what businesses should be doing differently. After years of seeing people lose all their photographs in wildfires and hurricanes, ScanMyPhotos took action. When a Texas customer found a four-year-old unredeemed Egift card, we didn’t just honor it—our CEO booked a flight to Dallas and is picking up their photos for scanning in person on Tuesday at 8 AM for same-day digitizing + GPS tracking to follow the journey.


Lesson: Customers deserve surprises. Small businesses have a secret weapon that big companies can’t replicate: human connection.


Friend, could this be your next story about customer care on another level and the urgency of digitally preserving photo history? The four-year delay in redeeming the eGift card was no fault of the customer---time and things happened.


In an age of automation, impersonal service, and companies that nickel-and-dime customers, ScanMyPhotos took the opposite approach. We turned a simple transaction into an unforgettable experience. The result? A lesson for EVERY business.
