Promotions is a great way to get your business name out to the community. I have received many social media follows and calls and now my schedule is almost fully booked! I highly recommend any business to do a promotion along with their marketing plan. You will not be disappointed.

The response we received was incredible! For three weeks straight, we had on average 20 new students start our trial program. With those 60 entries, we converted 60% of those leads into paying members. We are thrilled with the results!

This promotion was a great way to brand us in the local community, plus build a database list we can email when we have open appointments, new information, new products, or incentives, etc. We knew the promotion would give us great results with the prizes!
