I recently worked a 2-day bridal fair with another consultant and my recruiter. (They both live 30 to 45 minutes east of me and while the event was 15 minutes from their homes, it was a haul for me.)
We all did individual drawings and I am still making calls from those slips. I'm choosing to start with them since all of them were interested enough in PC to fill out a slip. I've gotten some preliminary very positive results from these calls.
Recruiter finally got the list of more than 600 names of people who registered for this event. It lists their name, address, phone number, e-mail, wedding date and other info. My share of this is 172 names, minus the 10 or so of them that filled out slips for someone else's drawing. Some have wedding dates in 08 ... some have wedding dates in 09, some in 2010 and some have none listed. ALL of these people are a long-distance call. Oh, and the vast majority of the people have not entered any of our drawings.
How do you suggest I contact these folks?
• Go through the slow, ardurous process of trying to reach each and every one of them by phone, sorting by wedding date?
• Send out a mass e-mail to them, explaining the benefits of a Pampered Chef bridal registry.
• Send a mailing conveying the same information.
I don't want to blow off all these contacts, but with limited time, I also want to invest my time where it will pay off first!
