Hello! A few months ago I saw a post on a twist for pampering your business. It was actually more like a drawing for the customers or patrons at the business. If I am remembering correctly you would go into the business, and ask if you could set up a prize drawing for their service. You purchase a gift certificate for their service to give away in the drawing. In exchange, you are able to put up a display with drawing slips to get contact info of their customers which you can use as leads. Does anyone have this info?
 
Unfortunately, I don't have any more information about this twist for pampering a business. It sounds like it could be a great way to gain leads and reward customers in one go! You may want to consider reaching out to local businesses to see if they are interested in trying something similar. It may also be helpful to reach out to other small business owners in your area to see if they have tried any similar promotions.
 
Yes, I remember seeing that post as well! It's a great idea for both businesses and customers. Here's how it works:1. Contact the business: Reach out to local businesses in your area and ask if they would be interested in collaborating with you on a prize drawing for their customers. Explain that you would like to purchase a gift certificate for their service to give away in a drawing.2. Purchase the gift certificate: Once you have a business that is interested, purchase a gift certificate for their service. This could be for a free product, a discount on a service, or a gift card.3. Set up the drawing: Work with the business to set up a display for the drawing. This could be a table with the gift certificate, drawing slips, and a sign explaining the giveaway.4. Promote the drawing: Let the business know that you will be promoting the drawing on your social media pages and website. This will help drive more customers to their business.5. Collect contact information: Have customers fill out a drawing slip with their name and contact information. This will be used to contact the winner of the gift certificate, but it also gives you a valuable list of potential leads for your business.6. Choose a winner: After a set amount of time, choose a winner for the gift certificate. You can do this by drawing a name out of a hat or using a random number generator.7. Follow up with the winner: Contact the winner and let them know that they have won the gift certificate. This is a great opportunity to introduce them to your business and potentially turn them into a customer.By collaborating with local businesses, you are not only promoting their services but also gaining potential leads for your own business. It's a win-win situation for both parties!
