From the 

PUBLISHER 

Celebrating Our 42 nd Anniversary 

WHERE does the time fly to? I think 

as we get older, we wonder about that 

more often than in our youth. This 

month marks the start of our 43rd year 

in the industry as we celebrate our 

42nd anniversary. 

OURS is one of the great start-fromnothing 

stories that has enjoyed a great 

run over the decades. As a 22-year-old 

back in 1981, with limited business 

acumen and less than $100 to his name 

still amazes me, forty-two years later. It 

was an idea and ambition that set our 

business on the path to success. 

AS entrepreneurs we start with a 

dream and a big heaping of enthusiasm. 

Sometimes the best push we can get to 

succeed in our lives is not having the 

option to fail. Our beginnings were 

simple. I was an underpaid ($10K year) 

graphic designer barely able to keep the 

lights on in my basement apartment in 

the Bronx. When my cat Ralph got sick, 

I needed funds for his operation and 

was desperate to get the funds for him. 

I found a wholesaler of stuffed 

animals and small gifts, bought some 

inventory and loaded my car up 

headed to the local flea market. I was 

able to sell enough goods over the 

weekends to pay for Ralph’s operation 

(he lived a long life until my ex had him 

“disappear” – another story). 

DURING my time selling at the flea 

market I was curious how vendors 

were finding suppliers. There was no 

internet and most vendors wandered 

>> ON-LINE SOURCING 

NYC to find wholesalers. It started my 

wheels turning and with $100 and a 

prayer the idea of starting a flea market 

magazine was launched. 

WITHIN a month of soliciting ads, 

we had enough money for the first 

printing. It was a local paper we called 

Flea Market Forum which I hand 

delivered to vendors in the NY area. 

IN less than two years we took the 

magazine nationally and created an 

additional magazine for independent 

stores and titled them Swap Meet 

Magazine and Retailers Forum. Both of 

which continue to circulate nationally 

over the last four decades. 

I am proud to be part of the small 

businesses of America. Our readers 

and advertisers represent the backbone 

of our country and our economy. We 

are the people who build. We are the 

people who work hard to improve our 

lives and the lives of our loved ones. 

OVER the decades I have made 

many great friendships, seen some 

great businesses thrive and others drift 

off. We have all shared one common 

denominator, and that is always 

striving to be the best we can be and 

run our businesses to be successful. 

THANK you to all our readers and 

supporters over the last 42 years as 

we plant our flag as the only monthly 

national trade magazine who’s 

weathered the storms. Thank you for

RETAILING NEWS 

Walmart Plans 65% Automation By 2026 

THE retail sector has long been the go-to for employment for people either just starting in the 

workforce or needing a reliable source of income. Aside from the hospitality industry, retail store 

employment was always at the top of the list for people to get work. 

THAT was until now. Walmart, one of America’s largest retailers has just announced that they will 

be working on automating about 65% of its store within the next twelve years. This was announced 

at their recent investor meeting in Florida. Walmart increasingly uses its huge stores to handle onlineorder 

deliveries and invests heavily in automation to speed up order processing at its e-commerce 

fulfillment centers. 

WHILE not immediately apparent if this move would lead to more layoffs at the country’s largest 

private employer, with about 1.7 million U.S. workers and another 60,000 abroad. The company did 

say that the moves would reduce the need for lower-paid roles. So, in other words, layoffs of the 

workforce. 

OVER time, the company anticipates increased throughput per person, due to the automation 

while maintaining or even increasing its number of associates as new roles are created. About 55% 

of all packages that it processes through its fulfillment centers will be moved through automated 

facilities by January 2026. This will help make Walmart’s growth in the e-commerce sector. 

REMEMBER when they started laying off the greeters? That would look minuscule compared to 

what may be down the line here. 

Bed Bath & Beyond Gets a Lifeline 

THE ailing Bed Bath & Beyond chain has entered into a vendor-consignment agreement with 

Hilco Global’s ReStore Capital, an investment management company. Under this agreement, 

ReStore Capital will buy up to $120 million in merchandise from BBB’s key suppliers to boost the 

stores inventory levels. 

THE home goods retailer has been unable to improve its inventory levels after relationships with 

many of its vendors soured. This agreement will allow BBB to get merchandise back on its shelves in 

the company’s latest effort to stay alive and avoid bankruptcy. 

Apple Store Burglars Steal 436 iPhones 

BURGLARS made a creative entrance into an Apple store in Lynwood, Washington, leaving with 

a giant stash of electronics. 

THE burglars broke into the Apple store at Alderwood Mall by cutting a hole in the bathroom 

wall of the neighboring espresso machine shop, then stealing around $500,000 worth of iPhones, 

iPads and Apple watches. 

THE burglars pried the front door of the espresso store open and then cut their way into the back 

room of the Apple store. The espresso store had no idea that they backed up the Apple store room, 

however the burglars seemed to be very well aware of what they were doing. 

AFTER reviewing video, the police characterized the theft as a “well organized operation. 

Criminals have become more clever than ever, apparently.

RETAIL STORE 

Continued from last issue... 

TO BE EFFECTIVE, 

AN AD MUST DO 3 THINGS 

Every advertisement should accomplish 3 

things for the store: tell shoppers who you are, 

where you are, and why they should care. The 

last part is what gets them to the store. When 

you place an ad, it should motivate people to 

visit the shop. It may be for the weekend sale 

you’re sponsoring or because you’ve got the 

best selection of whatever it is you sell. Your 

advertising communicates something about the 

store to potential shoppers. The goal, of course, 

is to communicate something so alluring that 

they rush out to respond with their wallets. The 

message should define a tangible benefit the 

consumer will enjoy only by shopping with 

your store. That could mean a low price, the 

first chance at new merchandise or the latest 

style, or an opportunity to consult with an expert 

to find the right solution for a special need. 

An effective ad has an impact, even if it only 

makes shoppers aware of the new store in 

town. 

The quality and appearance of your advertising 

contribute to consumers’ perceptions of the 

store. Anything that comes across as cheap, 

cluttered, or pushy works against what you’re 

trying to achieve. Spend what it takes to do it 

right. 


There are many places to take your spending 

discussed below. Before deciding on any, consider 

the merits of each in terms of a total campaign, 

comprised of different elements, each reinforcing 

the messages carried in the others, 

and all working together for the good of your 

store. 

SIGNS ARE THE MOST EFFICIENT 

FORMS OF ADVERTISING 

The cheapest and most necessary form of advertising 

is the sign that hangs outside your 

storefront. It should be neat, easy to read, and 

well lit. If the store name doesn’t readily define 

the nature of your business, list what you sell 

on the sign. When your business sits on a street, 

always give the store phone number prominent 

display on the sign. Some retailers treat their 

windows as a second sign, identifying the store 

with name and logo or highlighting what the 

store sells. Every sign should be neat and easy 

to read from a reasonable distance; across the 

street or across the mall corridor. If you’re not 

an artist yourself, hire a professional sign 

painter to do the job. Unless you’re selling vegetables 

from a roadside stand, your homey 

touch won’t help your endeavor. The sign 

comes to be considered as much a symbol of 

the business as what you stock and sell. You’ll 

probably be living with it for a long time. Make 

sure it says all you need to say in the best way. 

A sign works for the store every day. People 

walk or stroll by, and there it is announcing 

your name and what you sell to all who pass 

that way. After a while, though, people get used 

to it and that sign becomes part of the landscape.

The only ones who notice are those new to the 

area. The sign should be distinctive enough to 

serve as an enduring symbol of your business, 

reminding people that you’re there and what 

you sell. 

BILLBOARDS REACH VERY 

BROAD AUDIENCES 

When you’re starting the business or when you 

want to reach the broadest possible market, you 

may want to consider the merits of billboard 

advertising. Billboards communicate something 

to everyone who passes that way. They 

can be expensive to use, however. Cost is a matter 

of the size of the sign, the production costs 

involved, and the visibility of the location. Most 

billboards constitute roadside attractions along 

highways and byways. In recent decades the 

forumworkshop 

billboard concept has evolved into more of an 

ever-present advertising medium. Walk the 

streets of any large city and you’ll face paid advertising: 

on the sides and insides of buses, 

taxis, & trains; lining the platform at commuter 

rail stations; and gracing sidewalks, bus stops 

& buildings. Even indoors, billboards have 

found a place for themselves in poster-sized advertisements 

to be found wherever people 

might see them, including rest rooms. 

You might think with so much signage vying 

for the consumer’s attention, the message of a 

billboard would be lost in the clutter. The 

human eye, though, constantly 

seeks out new stimulation 

in the environment. A 

billboard provides that stim- 

ulation. continued...

When it’s new, just about everyone who passes 

that way will notice the message. Since these 

signs usually end up in places where crowds 

pass and linger, a good share of those exposed 

to the sign will investigate what it has to say. 

Unlike your store sign, which must stand and 

identify your store for years, the same billboard 

advertisement in the same location will lose it’s 

impact over a much shorter period of time. 

People will soon fail to notice it. If you plan to 

use these signs as a means of advertising, 

change your message regularly, or rotate the 

same message through different locations periodically. 

Therefore, billboards, indoors and out, are not 

good forum for promoting a product at a price. 

Better to tell shoppers about what you have in 

general. Use them as a tool for building awareness 

more than cultivating interest in any single 

product. Consider them more a forum for 

generic advertising that directs the shopper’s 

attention back to the main business. That’s why 

a billboard warrants serious attention when 

you’re opening the business. You’ll miss a share 

of your audience with your advertising in 

newspapers or on the airwaves, but a billboard 

at a busy intersection lets everyone who passes 

that way know your store has arrived. 

The message you carry on any outdoor advertising 

medium must be one that can stand the 

test of time. Remember these paid-for signs will 

remain in the same place for weeks or months. 


 

Your first thoughts may be to 

display that message where it 

will be seen by the widest possible 

audience. continued...

Before you do, take a look at the demographic 

profile of where your audience lives and works. 

The billboard at the town’s busiest intersection 

may put the store name before 

 

more people, but one closer to 

their neighborhood speaks directly 

to the people you want to reach. 

Your decisions on whether to use a billboard, 

how many to use, and where to place them will 

be a product of the local cost for use of that 

space, the production fee for your ad, and the 

amount of your advertising budget. Larger 

signs can prove an extremely costly form of advertising, 

especially when your budget is limited. 

A pair of billboards in 2 busy intersections 

will get your name before many more people. 

The venture could also consume a disproportionate 

share of your media budget in the 

process. Better to go to smaller signs and back 

them up with a campaign in other media. 

Consistency and frequency are what make any 

advertising campaign effective. If you shoot 

your budget blanketing the area with billboards 

that are here one month and gone the 

next, you may push your store toward a similar 

fate. 

Billboard advertising makes sense for you, provided 

it represents only one aspect of a cohesive 

advertising campaign. To find out what’s 

available in your area, check in your Yellow 

Pages under the listing “Advertising – Outdoor.” 

Better yet, next time you see a sign or 

billboard where you’d like to have a message 

displayed, step up to it and read the fine print.

Mention advertisement and most people immediately 

think of something that runs in the 

local newspaper. For retailers, newspaper advertising 

is, and will likely remain, one of the 

preferred means of reaching customers. The 

major problem with newspaper advertising, 

however, is one shared by all conventional 

media: It carries your message to a broad spectrum 

of the local populace, only a few of whom 

may be the people you need to reach. This 

tends to dilute the effectiveness of your advertising 

spending. Newspaper advertisements in 

the largest markets, served by the large-circulation 

newspapers, may seem excessive by your 

budget standards. 

Select the Most Effective Forms of 

Print Advertising For Your Store 

In recent years, some of these same newspapers 

launched what are called zone publications, 

special sections of the paper included in editions 

destined only for households in certain 

zip code areas. If you have demographic date 

that indicate the people you want to reach live 

only in certain parts of town, these sections can 

prove a cost-effective way to get your message 

across. Another viable alternative worth investigating 

is the weekly newspaper.

Any community, even a god-sized neighborhood 

within a city, has its own weekly newspaper. 

Again, if it’s distributed where those you 

want to reach live, it will provide a way to 

stretch your advertising dollar and reach only 

those you need to reach. 

When investigating your print options, don’t 

think only in terms of area newspapers. Many 

other publications provide an inexpensive alternative 

to spending with your major daily. 

Freely distributed shoppers, Pennysavers, and 

local entertainment guides all accept retail advertisements 

that will be seen by a large number 

of people. If your store targets a particular 

age group, you can save money and strengthen 

your message by talking directly to them in 

publications only they read. College newspapers 

provide an ideal and relatively cheap 

forumworkshop 

forum for reaching young consumers. Some 

communities have their own papers for mature 

readers, or specific ethnic groups. 

Magazine advertising, particularly 

in slick regional or city 

 

publications, represents an entirely 

different tool from 

newspaper advertising. For 

one thing, space in these publications carries a 

higher price, and they don’t lend themselves to 

the same types of ads. A newspaper ad, like the 

newspaper, carries a sense of immediacy. Reading 

a magazine is a more relaxing undertaking. 

The newspaper will be read in a day; the magazine 

may be around the house for a month, or 

at least until the next issue appears. Therefore, 

it’s not the place for the price-based ads you’d 

use in the newspaper.

The magazine, like the billboard, works better 

as a forum for generic advertising, for perception 

building. With a magazine you’ll also be 

reaching a more exclusive audience. If you 

want to reach affluence, you can do it on those 

glossy pages. If your business is geared more 

toward every man, stick with the newspaper. 

IT’S CONSISTENCY THAT COUNTS 

MOST WITH PRINT ADVERTISING 

Whatever print media you settle on, consistency 

is what counts in your advertising. Even 

where everyone reads the newspaper, not 

everyone reads the paper every day. The occasional 

ad is often missed. If you advertise consistently, 

sooner or later you ad will be seen by 

all. With a monthly or weekly publication, the 

decision on when to advertise is already made: 

Build Your Own 

forumworkshop 

Put an ad in every issue. With a 

 

daily newspaper, though, you 

must be more selective. Your ad 

should appear at least once a 

week. Which is the golden day? 

Most papers have a higher circulation on Sunday, 

so that may make it the day of choice. But 

that’s also the day the newspaper has the most 

ads vying for the shoppers’ attention. If yours is 

small, it could be missed. The papers toward 

midweek grow fatter as grocery stores place 

their ads. That helps increase readership, but 

again there are lots of ads in competition. 

There’s something good and bad to be said 

about advertising any day of the week. What 

you, as your store’s advertising agent, need to 

do is decide what day of the week you’ll advertise, 

then stick with it.

Don’t leave the ad placement up to the newspaper. 

Request that your ad run in the section of 

the paper you expect your customers will read 

most closely: for example, the business section 

if you’re selling office equipment, or the society 

pages if you specialize in fine china. Run the ad 

in the same place on the same day every week. 

After a while, the people you want to reach will 

turn there automatically to see what you’re offering 

this week. 

Print advertising should always present shoppers 

with a compelling reason to visit the store. 

The message may be a new product,, a sale 

price, or a 3-day event, but the ad should convey 

a sense of urgency that will motivate the 

shopper. In competitive industries, retailers 

often use “laundry lists” of product names, key 

features, and prices in their print ads. The message 

is simple and direct: Here’s what we’re 

selling and here’s what it will cost you. Other 

retailers highlight a particular product at an attractive 

price as a means of attracting as many 

customers as possible to the store. Some larger 

retailers feature “loss leaders”: products they’re 

selling at or below cost to attract shoppers into 

the store. Once there, they hope to step shoppers 

up to a higher-priced product, or get them 

to buy something that’s not on sale. Whatever 

strategy you use, your print ads should always 

promote a particular item and event, and the 

store in general. 

 

If mail-order sales figure 

prominently in your business 

plan, you’ll probably be placing 

your ads in a variety of specialty publications, 

“buff books” that cater to the interests of a 

highly specialized audience. continued...

In many retail specialties, mail order is the most 

competitive part of the marketplace. Unless 

yours is a one-of-a-kind store catering to a select 

customer base, you can lose your hide 

going head to head with national mail-order retailers. 

Price is their only game; if your price 

isn’t the lowest among the ads, you won’t get 

the sale. If you must rely on mail order, you’ll 

be advertising in specialty publications. Use the 

ads there as a forum for promoting the unique 

selection at your store and the specialty aspect 

of the business. If your category is restricted, 

enough people will respond just because they 

know your store is a source for the special 

products they need. 

ADVERTISING ON THE AIRWAVES 

IS DIFFICULT TO MASTER 

Advertising on commercial airwaves, 

be it radio or TV, can 

prove a more difficult process 

for the retailer. For one thing, 

commercial advertising on television 

in general, and radio in the major markets, 

is even more expensive than putting your 

message in print, and the need for advertising 

frequency is greater. Once it appears, the print 

ad remains accessible to your audience as long 

as the paper or magazine is around the house. 

With broadcast media, however, the inattentive 

consumer may miss your full message the first 

time he or she is exposed to your ad. And 

there’s no guarantee everyone you want to 

reach is listening or watching any single time 

the ad airs. In order to reach them all, it must 

run several times throughout the day, or week. 

The expense quickly adds up. continued...

Add to that the high cost of production. A 

poorly produced ad on television reflects back 

on the retailer in a negative way. Even if you 

could afford to have your commercial professionally 

produced, you probably can’t afford to 

run it often during those prime viewing hours 

when your customers sit before the tube. 

Some retailers use cable television advertising 

as a more cost-effective way of reaching their 

audience, running a series of ads on the channel 

or during the program that has a direct connection 

with their core business. It makes sense 

for the crafts store to advertise 

during the “How 

 

to Paint” half hour, and 

for the hardware store to 

state its case during the 

gospel, 

home improvement show. 

forumworkshop 

But even these targeted efforts can prove costly 

for the retailer on a limited budget. And the impact 

of the advertising may not be measurable 

for some time. You’re better served by trying to 

wrangle a guest appearance on the local talk 

show to discuss basic techniques. Or to spend 

your time and money putting together your 

own instructional program to air on the local 

cable-access channel. Later on, when your business 

is well established, you can afford to 

spend for TV advertising. In the beginning, 

your money may be better spent with radio. 

One of the nice things about radio is that it’s 

easy to segment the market. There are as many 

station formats as there are customer types: 

jazz, rock, adult contemporary, easy listening, 

all news, all talk, all sports, country, etc.

Your target customers probably listen to only a 

combination of a few station formats. But even 

if you can make an educated guess as to what 

stations your shoppers listen to, guessing when 

they listen poses a bit more of a challenge. If 

they’re morning listeners, when in the morning? 

Some people drive to work, others commute 

by train. Are they listening between 

6:00am & 7:00am, or between 7:00am & 

8:00am? Any doubts means your commercial 

should air both hours, and every day during 

the week. Radio gets results, as long as your 

message is consistent 

and airs on a regular 

basis. But be careful, 

you can expend your 

whole budget working 

toward that. 

 

possible. 


forumworkshop 

When an ad appears in print, people must 

refer back to it. Similarly, the first time someone 

hears or sees an ad over the airwaves, they 

probably miss part of the message, or aren’t 

completely sure of what it said. They need to 

be exposed to it more than once for it to have an 

impact. Even then, unless you’re shouting 

about some sale of a limited duration, it may be 

a while before they respond. And that response 

is difficult to measure. When you’re operating 

on a tight budget, and trying to stretch the impact 

of your ad dollars, the commercial airwaves 

can quickly use up what you’ve got to 

spend. Unless your store is situated in a very 

small market, the cost of airtime is expensive. 

And that expense is compounded by your need 

to get that message on the airwaves as often as

TV & radio commercials work when you want 

to make that big initial splash or your store’s 

success allows the budget to fund an ongoing 

broadcast advertising campaign. These expenditures 

should figure into your total marketing 

campaign, but not as its major components. 

There’s just too much at stake and too little to 

spend for you to take the chance. 

DETERMINING HOW MUCH YOUR 

ADVERTISING WILL COST 

Before you select your media mix, you need to 

determine what it will cost you to advertise. 

Contact the advertising department of the print 

and broadcast media that interest you and your 

request their media kit. Those that don’t have a 

media kit should be able to supply you with a 

rate card. As the name implies, it details the 


forumworkshop 

rates charged for ads of different sizes in print, 

or lengths, with broadcast media. Advertising, 

like everything else, is cheaper when you buy 

in bulk. When you commit to a schedule of several 

ads, the total package will be higher, but 

the cost per ad will be significantly lower. 

The rate card tells only half the story, though, 

about what you’re getting for your money. 

Every media representative should be able to 

furnish you with a market profile: a demographic 

description of the audience you’ll be 

reaching by advertising through that vehicle. 

Never agree to any ad schedule 

until you’ve had a chance 

to compare that profile with 

what you’ve already determined 

about your target cus-

The closer the match, the better the choice. 

When none exists, or there are so few people 

you’ll be reaching, you may want to consider 

alternative approaches to advertising. 

DIRECT MARKETING 

Many retailers, through a costly process of trial 

& error, now consider direct mail advertising 

to be their most efficient tool for communicating 

with their target audience. The wisdom of 

this approach should be immediate and obvious 

to the retailer opening a specialty store. 

Other forms of advertising take their message 

to a wide audience, in hope of reaching the few 

who might buy from the store. Direct or target 

marketing focuses the effort only on those you 

know to be your best sales prospects. You may 

also use this to target a special promotion at a 

specific demographic group. This is one of the 

ways building a database of customer names 

can help your promotional efforts. When you 

have something special to promote, you need 

only spend to reach those people who already 

demonstrated an interest in what you sell by 

buying from you. There are 2 ways to do this. 

REACHING INTERESTED PARTIES 

THROUGH DIRECT MAIL 

When you’ve something to promote, and you 

know who you need to reach and where they 

live, the easiest way to 

make sure your message 

gets through is by send- 

ing it directly to them.

A simple postcard, containing the same information 

you’d include in an ad, may be all it 

takes. In many cities and suburbs, marketing 

companies put together promotional packages 

containing coupons from a variety of businesses, 

sent to all the households in the area. 

Whether you buy into one of these packages or 

conduct your own direct mail campaign, it’s always 

good to include a coupon as it allows you 

to measure the effectiveness of the effort. 

Direct mail can prove even more effective when 

you combine your advertising with information 

that will be of interest to the recipient. 

Since you know the people on your mailing list 

are interested in what you sell, you should 

present yourself as the expert in that category. 

An informative newsletter describing trends in 

the category, highlighting new merchandise, 

and demonstrating how the recipient may get 

more from that interest will strengthen perceptions 

of the store and keep the channels of communication 

open between you and your 

customer. 

REACHING INTERESTED PARTIES 

THROUGH TELEMARKETING 

✆People who enjoy hearing 

from the store in the mail 

probably won’t appreciate 

hearing from you over the 

telephone. Most people resent 

a telephone call from a 

stranger as an unwelcome invasion of privacy. 

Telephone sales, as a means of attracting new 

customers or strengthening ties with the old, 

are a risky venture.

Unless you’re sponsoring a special event for 

special customers – by invitation only – consider 

the telephone dial off limits for promoting 

the start-up. It’s one thing to take orders 

by phone, and another to try and get them. 

There has been so much backlash against telemarketing 

in recent years with all the talk of 

telephone scams, that a telemarketing program 

can do little, if anything, to enhance the stature 

of the new retail business. When an advertising 

venture draws negative responses, it’s hurting 

the very business it was meant to help. 

BE AWARE OF THE EMERGING 

MEDIA CHOICE 

As new information technologies present themselves 

and become the norm in American 

forumworkshop 

households, they’ll present you with many 

more ways to take your message directly to 

shoppers. Some will offer you the ability to target 

your message to a particular group with 

even greater precision than direct mail does 

today. Others will provide innovative ways to 

reach the broadest possible audience in hopes 

of attracting the few who will buy from you. 

Already the stage for the promotional future is 

being set with tests of new marketing tools. 

 

The growing popularity of home 

shopping ushers in the potential 

for shopping any store from anywhere 

by telephone, fax, or computer. Many 

on-line services now carry scrolling electronic 

billboards that tout products and stores. Activate

from the store, and place an order.

The paper catalog, cherished by generations 

of shoppers, is already yielding to its electronic 

replacement, distributed on CD-ROM. 

People are learning to get product information 

by computer connection or on the home screen, 

via dedicated retail shows and networks or a 

video “infomercial.” Readers of tomorrow’s 

electronic morning newspaper will predetermine 

content, and the paper they view will 

carry advertising specific to their income, interests, 

and household demographics. 

➧As an advertiser, you may one day 

be able to specify who gets your 

message in print or over the airwaves, 

using your customer profile 

as a guide. Your bill will tell you 

how many consumers received 

your message, and who they are. 

forumworkshop 

Marketing professionals also continue to devise 

new ways to package advertising messages for 

the general public. Some stores and businesses 

take the moment a telephone caller is on hold 

as an opportunity to talk about their business 

or services. Expected to be able to buy “hold 

time” over the telephone lines as you would 

buy commercial time on the radio today. Supermarkets 

and grocery stores already experiment 

with electronically activated video screens that 

promote products as the shopper walks past 

them in the store. That same screen could carry 

sales prompts for other products and businesses 

as well. 

There’s already talk of celestial billboards, 

drawn by satellites, that could illuminate the 

sky with nightly sales pitches within a few 

years! Let’s hope it doesn’t happen.

As you explore the new 

marketing tools of the information 

age, be sensitive 

to the fine line 

between service and nuisance. 

Promotion serves 

when it provides information 

the consumer wants. There’s much talk 

now about relationship marketing in the future, 

and of targeting the consumer with marketing 

messages for particular products and services 

based on that consumer’s or household’s purchase 

profile. While there’s truth in trends, the 

retailer must also keep in mind that shopping is 

one of the principal ways we exercise our individuality 

in our society. Assume too much 

about the consumer, to the point that you begin 

to dictate what he or she should be buying, and 

you’re courting a backlash. 


The promotional push that has worked and 

will continue to work is telling shoppers everything 

they need to know about the store and its 

products, without dictating they buy there. 

People want to make that decision themselves. 

Your promotional push should convince people 

they’re making the right choice when they 

shop with you. 

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER 

Equipped with a working knowledge of the 

basic promotional tools available to you, 

you can start devising a marketing program 

to tell the world about your store. The best 

strategy operates as a coordinated effort 

in the three spheres of promotion.

You want to generate as much 

free publicity as possible through 

public relations, come up with the 

creative ideas that lend themselves 

to effective promotions, 

and use the appropriate advertising media mix 

to get your message to the right people. 

During your first year of operations, approach 

your marketing strategy as a 2-phase program. 

First, you pull out all the marketing stops to 

create as much attendant excitement you can 

around the store’s Grand Opening. Make it an 

event. Mail out a release announcing your 

store, what it sells, and when it will open. Run 

special ads announcing the celebration, and invite 

local dignitaries for the ribbon cutting. 

Then build on that with an ongoing promotional 

push to nurture a strong base of customer 

support as you address the unique marketing 

challenges of the start-up store. 

IT’S VITAL TO MEASURE YOUR 

MARKETING SUCCESS 

In all you do to promote business during your 

first year, it’s especially important you track 

and record the effectiveness of each component 

of your marketing effort. You must experiment 

before you can identify the promotional 

mix that best serves your store, so you want to 

test the effectiveness of each marketing option 

as you use it. What you learn now will guide 

your future campaigns. 

With PR, keeping track is relatively 

simple. Send out your releases, and 

wait and watch for results.

Track all the news organizations receiving your 

release to see if it’s been picked up. If you have 

any doubts, call the station or paper and ask the 

news or business editor if the information was 

used, and if so, when and where. Keep a scrapbook 

of clippings and notes of appearances and 

inquiries. Promotions prove more difficult to 

gauge, much of it a matter of monitoring store 

traffic and measuring how individual promotions, 

in media and at the point of sale, affect 

sales of the featured items. With advertising in 

any form, one of the best ways to measure effectiveness 

of individual ads is to build in an 

enticement that encourages feedback. The easiest 

way is to include a coupon in the print ad 

or newsletter, or offer some incentive – say, 5% 

off if the ad is mentioned – with your broadcast 

commercials. Featuring coupons in your advertising 

will help you track the impact of your 

forumworkshop 

✄ 

message and media, and 

boost sales. An attractive 

coupon offer gets people 

shopping. You’ll see how 

well it’s working by counting 

the number of coupons 

redeemed. 

You can make this job easier if you have a computer 

system and customer database in place 

the day you open the doors. Ask each customer 

what brings her to the store, and enter a previously 

determined code for the response. Tally 

the responses for an exact indication of what 

you’re getting for every promotional dollar 

spent. Of course, you can ignore the need to 

track your advertising, but then you’ll always 

be guessing at your strategy and never really 

know what’s working.

That’s why it’s important to write up an advertising 

strategy and budget for the first year, 

and keep detailed records of what you spend, 

where, and when. Then compare each investment 

with the shopper responses it generates. 

What you’ll learn from your customers should 

guide you on spending and where to put your 

promotional dollars. If a 3rd of customers tell 

you they learned of the store from a billboard, 

and it only represents 10% of your spending, 

you’ll know it’s an especially effective medium. 

It’s also one in which a substantial increase in 

spending might be justified. Sometimes the results 

of your advertising may be immediately 

apparent: Your commercials start 

☛ 

airing on radio, and the next day 

there’s a line outside your door. 

That would mean it’s time to shift 

more of your budget to radio. 

By the end of the first year, the records you 

keep, detailing the direct impact of advertising 

on store activity, combined with monthly 

breakdown of sales, will enable you to devise a 

promotional strategy based on realistic expectations 

and need, by the month or even week. 

The promotional budget and what it allows 

will differ for every retailer in every market. 

Planning ahead, budgeting your promotional 

spending, and setting up a system that allows 

you to measure its impact will enable you to 

take much of the guesswork out of the promotional 

process.

Determining your marketing needs begins 

with an assessment of your budget. You can 

only afford what your resources allow. Return 

to your business plan and consider the numbers 

factored in for your annual marketing 

budget and the Grand Opening. Remember: 

Opening day should make a big splash, and the 

marketing wheels should be turning at least 2 

weeks before the event to guarantee a crowd. 

forumworkshop 

Work up a press release about the store opening 

and send it to area media. Use this to explain 

what the store will sell, its hours of operation, 

and when the store officially opens. Describe 

anything special you’re doing for the Grand 

Opening, like free balloons for the kids, giveaways, 

contests, and the like. Advise recipients 

of the release when the ribbon-cutting ceremonies 

will take place and what local dignitaries 

will be on hand for the festivities. If it’s a 

slow news day, the papers will send a photographer 

out. Make sure you hire your own photographer 

for the occasion just in case they 

don’t. If you can submit a quality photo of the 

ribbon cutting to the paper, with everyone in 

the picture identified, odds are in your favor it 

will be used. Of course, the better known the 

dignitaries in attendance, the better your 

chances of getting the picture into the newspaper. 

Send invitations at least 2 weeks before the 

event, and follow up with a phone call to their 

offices. 

A Grand Opening tends to promote 

itself and always attracts 

a share of the curious, to see the 

new store and what’s being 

given away free.

for those with staying power. Your immediate 

promotional challenge is to get the store 

name out there in front of as many people as 

possible. Make sure you have bags with the 

store name and logo printed in time for the occasion. 

Consider with hourly prizes always encourages 

good turnout and can help get your 

database started. Have store visitors fill out a 

form and drop it in a bowl. Offer top prizes of 

merchandise and gift certificates, and secondary 

prizes of walking advertisements, such as 

shirts, hats, or canvas bags with the store name. 

It helps to make your grand opening a sales 

event, with sales keyed around a featured 

product. Storewide sales for the start-up work 

against you at this point as they establish shopper 

expectations for discounts. Better for prices

to start high and come down than to start low 

and climb. Feature a few key items at opening 

day sale prices to kick off what should be the 

store’s cyclical sales program. 

When planning your opening day promotions, 

remember who your store aims to serve. If your 

specialty appeals to a more affluent, sophisticated 

audience, consider the merits of a more 

subdued grand opening celebration. Host a tea 

or wine & cheese party that’s 

 

more a showcase of what you sell 

than a daylong selling circus. 

Advertising is the toughest part of the kickoff 

and the element that will cost you the most. 

The advertising attending you Grand Opening 

must promote the event and let the world 

know you’re finally open for business.

Get your signs around the store in place as soon 

as possible, and make sure there’s a big one in 

the store window announcing the Grand Opening 

and the date. It will probably work to your 

benefit now to invest in a high-visibility billboard 

for at least 4 weeks preceding and following 

your big event. It should feature a 

generic message about the store, its location, 

and your specialty. Include a teaser in one corner 

stating “Coming soon,” with the date of the 

Grand Opening. On that date the teaser should 

change to “Now Open.” 

✔ 

TWO WEEKS BEFORE 

THE STORE OPENS, 

SPEND FOR ANOTHER 

TEASER IN YOUR PAPER 

OR PAPERS OF CHOICE. 

Again announce, “Coming 

forumworkshop 

Soon” with a description of the store and what 

you’ll sell. Raise the readers’ expectations; 

don’t be afraid to brag. Give the when and 

where, with your phone number. Repeat the ad 

the following week, and launch a heavy print 

campaign, at least every other day, for the week 

leading up to the event. These ads should promote 

the Grand Opening and special sales, and 

invite the curious to come in, see the store, and 

participate in the festivities. Continue you 

Grand Opening advertising for at least a week 

after the event, then start rolling back your 

schedule, first to 3, then 2 days a week, keeping 

your ad in the Sunday paper and your weekday 

of choice. Eventually you may want to roll 

back to either one of these days as your weekly 

newspaper ad. When you want to increase advertising 

for special events or your peak selling 

season, advertising on both days.

If there’s an identifiable core group of shoppers 

you’re targeting with the store, contact them 

through the mail. Design the card so it looks 

like an invitation, and encourage 

them to bring it 

✍ 

in for a special contest. 

Collect the cards and 

you’ve got a list of people 

who responded to your 

first direct mail effort. 

If your budget allows, sample the effectiveness 

of broadcast media with commercials announcing 

the store opening. Use the station’s or stations’ 

market breakdown to decide which to 

use, and pay for the heaviest campaign you can 

afford for at least a week, commencing at least 

one day before the opening. 

If the broadcast campaign is to have any impact, 

your commercials must air for at least a 

week or there’s no guarantee your ads will 

have any impact. Remember, the broadcast 

media represent the most expensive advertising 

vehicle in most market areas. Make sure 

you’ve thoroughly investigated less expensive 

but reliable alternatives like print or billboards 

before committing to a commercial campaign. 

If you decide to use TV or radio, use this as an 

opportunity to test the impact of the media and 

stations in your area. Track the results. That’s 

as far as you want to go experimenting with advertising 

media for your Grand Opening. 

Spend on the medium that’s already proven 

first. Opening day is not a time to play. You 

want to use those tools you have a reasonable 

assurance will deliver shoppers when you 

open the store.

DON’T FORGET TO ASK YOUR 

SUPPLIERS FOR HELP 

You can alleviate the cost of some of your marketing 

spending and increase its effectiveness 

by checking in with your suppliers first. It’s 

their job to help the retail network spread the 

word about their products. You may find them 

ready and eager to help you in your promotional 

effort now (and throughout your career 

in retail.) How much they’re willing to assist 

depends on the size of the company. The largest 

suppliers offer a marketing arsenal of in-store 


forumworkshop 

sales aids to promote their products on the 

showroom floor. These include counter cards, 

floor displays, posters, and a variety of premiums. 

 

Ask about any premiums 

before your Grand Opening. 

You may be able to 

save yourself the cost of the 

giveways by getting them 

from your supplier and 

having your store name imprinted. These freebies 

are a chance to advertise your business. 

You want to be sure and use that first to your 

benefit, and then to your supplier’s. While 

you’re talking about premiums, hit up your 

suppliers for a prize to be given away during 

your Grand Opening festivities.
