We have companies here that have been offering free and 25% off for a limited time for the last 5 years strait? But the think is it must work for them. You still have the price shopper where the bottom line is how much? Preception of a good deal. |

Mr. Steamer you must be consistant with things like logos and fonts for your co. name etc. That is why we do our own layouts when it comes to the printing. They may supply art work etc.. But we supply and make sure we get proofs before anything is printed where our name is concerned .

I may run a local add in the paper as well... Steamer if you do... I would put my money on Display ads not classifieds. I always got a bettr ROI. And use different looking borders so your display ad attracts attention! Good luck buddy |

Good Idea John. Most people would not check that avenue because they believe it would be way out of their league. Don't you think they would be?

Mr.Steamer, Have you checked the prices for radio & tv? Good ad copy could bring back 2-4%. I believe the national average for mailings is around 3% with good copy. Good luck and keep us posted on the results if you persue this. |

Doug, Jeff Hunt was paid millions by Sears to buy the rights back from him, he nows owns the Ottawa Jr's in the OHL and doing very well by the way, just wish I could get paid the money he owes me.

SEARS? Why is it not called Valley Carpet Care. Isn't that what Daddy SEARS Mr. Hunt used to call his cleaning co before he took over the SEARS tm.
