We have delivered millions of door hangers inviting people to attend Grand Openings and Special Events for some of the largest retailers and grocers in the U.S. Similarly, we help companies respond to new competition in their trade areas. Seasonal events like Black Friday and so many more have been the reason for timely distribution of door hangers across the land. We are able to provide coverage in over 70 Metropolitan Areas with our national delivery network. And when needed, provide mailing services to reach very targeted households and those in rural markets.

On-site activations through our event marketing group, provides retailers and brands a creative, fun, and interactive way to connect. Driving awareness, trial, sales and consumer loyalty.

Willowbend has delivered tens of millions of door hangers for multiple grocery brands all across America, helping them announce Grand Openings, Re-Openings, Additional Services (i.e. delivery, pharmacy, new hours, new on-line apps), Competitive Blunting, and more. Direct-to-door has been the preferred method since it allowed targeted delivery to select neighborhoods within specific retail drive radii of a particular store location. When special events need to be highlighted, whether Holiday or Seasonal, direct-to-home could be utilized without the spotty coverage from newspapers, or long lead times associated with traditional TMC or Co-op Mailings. Cutting out waste, improving targeted reach, and production at the last minute to be responsive to competition and market demand, makes Willowbend’s direct-to-home solution a “no brainer”. Willowbend takes care of printing, freight to market, warehousing, and delivery. And the delivery is backed by our proprietary GPS tracking and verifications system, so deliveries get delivered on-time, and on-target!

The restaurant industry has evolved in terms of what was traditional couponing. Especially given the universal availability of custom apps, and on-line delivery service providers. What hasn’t changed is that consumers still like getting special offers and deals that reward their patronage. Willowbend provides an array of media solutions to boost immediate redemptions that increase sales, along with methods to increase adoption and usage of client’s on-line apps.

For the past several years, one of Willowbend’s agency clients’ has seen phenomenal success for one of their QSR accounts, distributing stored valued cards, using a combination of event marketing and direct-to-door, reaching their desired target market…students and faculty, at colleges and universities across the country. The messaging included downloading the QSR’s on-line app, providing stored value cards redeemable on-line and in-person.
