So own a brick and mortar type business and provide a service where people usually come in once a month, similar to a restaurant, nail salon, coffee shop, gym, etc… Your business already has great reviews on Yelp, Google, and Facebook, which means your previous customers already trust your brand.
Now let say you have this new item on the menu or you have a new promotion that wanted to get out to your customers.
How are you going to do that?
Will you put an ad in the newspaper and hope and pray it doesn’t end up in the recycling bin?
Maybe you’ll share it on your Facebook page and hope people’s fingers will stop on it while they’re scrolling?
How about spending a few hundred dollar$$$ to get it designed, printed, and mailed to list of people in the neighborhood?
Or better yet, hire one of those mascots to flip your promotion on their board?
Hmmm… lets take a look at these numbers below.
