What Serious Entrepreneur Would Readily Ignore These Proven Examples Of Target Marketing!

Picking up right where part seven left off. The savvy appliance retailer will sponsor the annual Super bowl party! And let’s say that typically 130 of the local cleaning companies total 200 employees/associates regularly attend.(Plus a few extra tag along guests every one and a while.)

The dealer rents a local banquet hall  and springs for pizzas from one of the most popular local pizza spots, also wings of all sorts, burgers, specialty lasagna, barbecue ribs and steaks, ice cream, sodas, cake, but no alcohol. Maybe a light wine cooler. Anyway, the savvy retailer is also going to create an event that’s sure to get the on and offline grapevine buzzing!

Check this out! Each year right after the game and as the event is coming to an end. The dealer is going host two raffles!

1.) First, for just $50 dollars, the employees get to enter a raffle to win a 72  inch flat screen TV. A state of the art TV that normally retails for $899 dollars or X!

Some years it will be more! Let’s say that 100 of the 130 employees in attendance of the event, leap at the chance to enter the raffle.

Which means 100 people spend $50 dollars, that equals a cool $5,000 dollars for the appliance dealer! ($50 x 100 = $5,000 dollars.)

Don’t Forget This Is Only Targeting One Company!

(Just Imagine Their Long Term Results When Their Successfully Working  With Five Or Six Companies With At Least 100 Employees Or More!)

Now entrepreneur, follow this. Since the TV cost the dealer about $450 dollars, or thereabouts. The dealer will also give away five $100 dollar gas cards and one $100 dollar steak dinner gift certificate to a popular local family style restaurant like Apple bees.

But here’s the other thing the extremely savvy appliance dealer will do. They will send an email (and or text message) to every employee that goes to their WordPress blog and signs up to attend the annual Super bowl party event.

And they will give each person that’s planning on attending ten time sensitive- 40% off your firs purchase VIP new customer only gift certificates, to pass out as quickly as possible to friends and family etc

Here’s why; the top 50 employees that both pass out and get the most certificates redeemed before the event. And as long as they’re actually at the event! They get entered into another raffle to win the actual 72 inch flat screen TV they just watched the game on!

Think about all the cell phone videos sent to friends and family members, postings on Facebook and tweets etc!
