Measuring a QR Codes Effectiveness
QR codes have been very popular for the past two years and are in a lot of places such as store displays, business cards, online ads, postcards etc. The question is still up in the air whether QR codes are here to stay or not, but from the measurement. A QR Code can allow for […]

Pinterest – is it good for your brand?
Over the years, there have been numerous social media outlets – some that make sense to use for your brand such as Facebook and Twitter, the others, we’re not so certain on. The newest rave in social media the past two years has been Pinterest. At first, we weren’t sure how this would work for […]
Get into the consumers home and you win
Recently we just had a client increase their July and August traffic by 31% verses last year. Yes, that is right…31%. Why an increase in traffic?
We made a concentrated effort to get into the home of the consumer whether it was through print or online we wanted to make sure the consumer got the message in the comfort of their own home.
To promote or not to promote? That tis’ the question
In our dealings with retailers on a daily basis we are confronted with the conundrum that is “I don’t want to run a sale but I don’t want to lose a potential sale. Can you help us accomplish this?”
If we wanted to land every piece of business (temporarily) our answer would be “Yes, we most certainly can!” However, we would be misleading the notion that is an impossible outcome. So, our answer is, “Yes we can but you cannot afford to spend enough to out shine the noise of ‘sale, sale, sale’ that dominates the retail landscape”.
eCommerce or Die—Advertise to your site, then to your store
Life was easy back in the day, or at least, that is what I am told. I have only been actively engaged in this industry since 2008 and as you can imagine I have not seen the “easy days” of this industry. I have only seen the retail of today which can prove to be complicated, hard acquisition and slow growth.
eCommerce or Die—Your customer now is your customer online
More often than not in our ventures with clients we hear that we need to target our “online customer”. There is a perception in the marketing world that your online customer is different from your offline customer.
To some degree there might be some truth in that in regards to how they absorb information verses online or offline. However, the amount of money or style of product they might be trying to purchase does not change online or offline.
eCommerece or Die–You Would Expect Me To Say That
Now, you would expect a young gun in the retail marketing industry to tell you that you are nuts to not sell online if you want to stay in business. Well, that is 100% true because you are not nuts if you want to stay in business.
However, if you have no intentions of continuing your business then we suggest not investing the time, energy and resources into selling online because you will fail.
Utilizing QR Codes In Your Marketing Message
The QR code is a tool that can easily engage a mobile user. QR Codes have begun to appear on the sides of buses, magazine pages, on television screens, on billboards and even on Facebook. QR means “Quick Response”. The code allows decoded by devices like mobile phones that can scan and then quickly open […]
So you have joined the Social phenomenon: Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, but now what?
In today’s world, if you’re not involved in a social community it is almost as if you do not exist as a business. However, it is more than just creating profile for your company and being there. Businesses must be an active member in these communities in order to be heard. But how does one […]
