With Election Day fast approaching, why not take advantage of the voting spirit by creating a few fun polls for your business? Here are some clever ways to gather opinions and reward your loyal customers in the process:
- Ask customers to vote for their favorite products or services. Send a postcard campaign or statement stuffer with a web link to an online ballot. Distribute campaign flyers. Post information on your Facebook page, website, or other social media channels. And have a ballot box at the main desk of your business, where customers can vote by paper ballot if they prefer.
- Encourage customers to learn more about your products by creating a game-like quest. Provide clues through various communication channels (email, direct mail, social media), and reward those who complete the quest.
- Inspire participation by offering a grand prize drawing, as well as a guaranteed coupon or smaller thank-you to all who vote.
- Create an "Election Day" sale to encourage extra traffic, and consider offering an additional discount to any customers who come from the polls wearing an "I voted" sticker.
- If you're creating an in-house promotion, remember that food is always a crowd pleaser. Consider offering cookies, cake, donuts, or simply coffee, hot chocolate, or cider.
- Provide a follow-up marketing campaign to announce the winner, and consider running an exclusive special on that particular product or service following the election.
- Maximize your promotions by offering combo specials that include your most popular products with lesser-known or newer products.
