Hi Jenni,
Take a look at our website for some helpful tips and ideas! Since you are close to a food pantry, you can encourage your clients to bring some canned food with them to their appointments with you during massage week (July 15-21). In the past, we have had participants offer their clients $5 off their massage session, if they donate 5 cans of food (or whatever you would like to say). You can set up a collection box and at the end of the week, bring that down to the food pantry. You can also offer the food pantry volunteers a discount on your massages that week. Not much promotion needed, just print out some coupons and postcards from our website and start handing them out to clients. You can also start reminding clients to pre-book their appointments with you for that week, as your schedule might fill up due to the great promotion you are offering. This will give you another chance to let them know about your promotion and get into your schedule early! :) I hope this helps, otherwise, maybe someone else in the group has some other suggestions for you!
Hi Hannah! No, I have never participated before and I am interested in learning more about it. I do very little promotion for my business, and there is a food pantry on the corner near my massage studio....
Hi Rachel and Jenni - Thank you for joining the group! Are you planning to participate in EveryBody Deserves a Massage Week this year?
Hi Kris, thanks for joining the group! Have you participated in EveryBody Deserves a Massage Week before?
Welcome to the group, Kristin. Are you planning to participate in EveryBody Deserves a Massage Week this year?
Hi Linda - We, at ABMP, have tried to make the information and materials for EveryBody Deserves a Massage Week easy to find and easy to use, as we know how busy you are. Check out the marketing center at ABMP.com http://www.abmp.com/members/marketing_center_everybody_deserves_a_m... where you can find information on the event, customizable massage week marketing materials, and get some ideas for your event. Hopefully something there will inspire you to participate in the national event this year. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you again for your interest!
Thank you, Hannah! No, I have never heard of this before. I spend almost no time at all promoting my business. As soon as I get a chance I will find out more about this and see if I can work it in.
Welcome to the group, Linda, Thelma, and Bella! Have any of you participated in EveryBody Deserves a Massage Week in the past?
Thank you for your support and help, Mike. I agree with you, we need to all work together to promote our profession!
