Intrigued? Let us show you 5 ways we can help you market your business!
1. Email Marketing

The name of the game in the customer experience is personalization. In 2020, marketers are honing in on this aspect of business management. With more data collected from user’s behaviours than ever before, and more methods to distill and analyze that information, marketers and businesses by extension are able to create very customized communications to connect with their loyal customers. One of the most popular tools to achieve this is through email marketing campaigns. You can:
- Thank them for their first purchase
- Engage with “lost” customers (those who haven’t visited in over 12 months)
- Provide an account balance update
- Send a “Happy Birthday” message with a gift
- Advertise what’s new or any promotions you’re running
- Offer coupons or bonus points on their loyalty card
We create a email campaign overview that’s customized to your business’s needs, working with you to break down your customer list into segments and create a suite of emails (ie. monthly) to roll out so that you’re consistently keeping in touch with relevant, interesting content.
Do you have special events throughout the year you’d like to promote? Want to keep customers in the know about your business’s news, or how much is left on their gift card? Maybe you’d like to reward your loyalty program members with a special offer to get them back in to your store?
Email marketing is a powerful and modern method of exploring creative ways to advertise your business and build emotional connections that last way beyond the point of sale.
2. Direct Mail

Our in-house designers can create direct mail pieces to send out to your client list on behalf of your business. The sky is the limit! Here are a few direct mail ideas:
- Postal code targeting: target prospective customers in a specific neighbourhood.
- New mover: target prospective customers who are new to your area.
- Lost customer: reach out to your clients who haven’t been in within 12 months to 24 months.

We have a wide range of point-of-purchase (P.O.P.) marketing collateral options to use for display signage and advertising throughout your store, restaurant, or dealership.
