Protective Touchscreen Gloves

Glider Gloves Help You Stay Connected and Protected

— November 25, 2014 — Fashion
Glider Gloves are a line of gloves that work perfectly well with all kinds of touchscreen devices, so you can use your smartphone or tablet on the go without having to sacrifice on the warmth of your hands. These gloves have a special conductive copper yarn woven into the liner, providing precise touch screen response along the entire hand and not just on the fingertips as is the case with some other touchscreen gloves.

Glider Gloves is a company based in Toronto, Canada, giving them plenty of credibility when it comes to dealing with the cold. The company describes itself as "a small company with a big heart," and one that aims to give people "the freedom to touch anytime, anywhere."

You can currently get a 10% discount on Glider Gloves by simply liking their Facebook page. The gloves are available on the company's website, with free shipping available to customers in Canada and the USA.

3. Discount-based Marketing - Offering discounts in exchange for social media action presents an opportunity to increase brand exposure and attract more customers.
