Walking Billboard? Top of the Mind Awareness? 20 Plus years?

Thanks for taking the time to view what I think is a win win situation for both your new Quadra Fire Stove buyers and sellers .  This is a new and ground breaking marketing idea for those who wish to have every customer become a walking billboard for their Stove Shop for the next 20 to 30 years. 

Here’s how it works, present every new Quadra Fire stove customer with a Cuddlemewarm throw blanket as a gift.  At the bottom of each blanket is your shop name and phone for all to see. Quadra Fire is also offering 50% cooperative advertising dollars on each throw blanket. That means they will pay half the cost of your 20 Year Walking Billboard !

These Cuddlemewarm blankets are not sold in stores, nothing comes close to the quality and durability of these blankets.They are simply the softest and plushest blanket you'll ever cuddle up with.  Cuddlemewarm blankets are machine wash and dryable and will last 20 to 30 years. This is going to cause the people who come in touch with them to ask the question over and over again 20-30 years, where did you get this blanket?????

Places these blankets are taken every day: Parks, cars, beaches, couches, ball games and everywhere else your customer takes them with your store name and number on them, thus becoming a walking bill board for your store.  Remember these blankets last 20 to 30 years and your name will be going wherever the Cuddlemewarm blanket goes.

Your cost is $49.00 per blanket and I’m sure when given in appreciation for buying a Quadra Fire stove, your customer will give your name a good work out over the next 20 to 30 years. Bang for the buck it’s worth $49.00 for the name recognition it will bring alone. Remember Quadra Fire will pay 50% for cooperative advertising.

Many Businesses in town give welcome baskets of flowers and gifts from $25 to as high as $60 depending on the sell.  Only one problem with this, once the flowers die and the coffees consumed it’s a one time shot for advertising and then they're gone.  Another great plus for you is that because your name and telephone number are on the blanket it’s a 100% right off as advertising instead of the usual 50% gifting.

Let us help you create thousands of walking billboards that will last for the next 20 to 30 years saying I got it from your (Your Store Name) when we bought our new Quadra Fire Stove..

Minimum order of patches is 50, which will cost $250.00 up front to get the blankets started and we will hold them and make the blankets, as you need them.  The $5.00 per patch will be deducted from your $49 cost leaving your cost now per blanket at $44.00   I can work with your design people to create the style and colors for your Logo Patch. I’ll create a proof at no charge for your viewing, and when you're happy with it, it will take 30 days to make your 50 patches, so let’s get going. Throw blankets come in assorted colors.

Let me know how many you’d like a month and I can give you a delivery timetable for your Cuddlemewarm Walking Bill boards.

Because of the 30 day wait for your patches to be created, I suggest you purchase enough patches for this selling season based on at least what you sold last year. This way you won't run out of patches for your throws, and your customers will become the 20 year Walking Billboard for your shop without a hitch.
