Here’s one of the primary reasons you’re so generous. 😀 (Just to keep the math extremely simple and therefore much easier to calculate! 😀 )
Let’s say each of these local vendors, currently have at least 1,500, VIP opt in email and or mobile subscribers on their list.(1,500 x 15 = 22,500)
Which means entrepreneur, there is a grand total, of 22,500 potential locals, who can be inexpensively and frequently reached, simply by sending, either an unscheduled, ‘broadcast’ email alert message. And or via a text message.

So each night, (about three hours before you close), since your shop is opened, M-Sat, but closed Sundays.
You have one or two of your local JV and or cross promotional partners, send a message to their list, letting them know, you’ll be closing in the next three hours, and rather than simply throw out your unsold goodies.
You’ll gladly discount your prices! 😀 Every order under $10 dollars saves 15%, (or X), and every order over $20 dollars, saves 30% or X.
So (theoretically speaking!), on average, a bare bones minimum of 1,500 emails and or text messages a night, go out to various local VIP subscribers.
And let’s say, 30% of them respond. Your store gets flooded with 450 last minute shoppers. (1,500 x .30% = 450.)
