Finding Wedding Favors

December 19, 2019

Base Your Favor Off the Season

When my wife and I got married, it was right after Christmas. The Christmas lights were still up in the church, and so were all the angels that the church hung from the rafters. There were even Christmas trees still up in the foyer. Because of this, we decide to them our favors for the season and handed out candy canes with a personalized and signed note from the two of us thanking them for their presence. At the reception, we also had little bells that could double as Christmas ornaments that we set at every seat. Total cost? Less than $10.

Mystery Shopping the Competition

Brand loyalty

A manufacturer was concerned that sales were dropping for their products in several retail stores. Mystery shoppers were used to visit the retail stores and “shop” for the manufacturer’s product. The manufacturer was able to determine if sales associates were leading customers away from their brand, and what was being said about their brand. Taking it a step further, a scenario was designed in which mystery shoppers would be interested in two products — one of the manufacturer’s and another of a competitor. Posing as undecided between the two, mystery shoppers would ask the associate for their recommendation. This allowed the manufacturer to determine which brand was being recommended and why, and how this impacted their sales at the retail level.
