More Eyes Than A Potato

Hi! I’m Kathleen (yes, there’s two of us!), Production Manager
for Royalty Rewards. A couple of years ago, I was looking for an
opportunity to be a part of a great team that shares my values,
was well established and was also close to home. Tall order! But
then I found Royalty Rewards® and I can’t imagine a better fit.

Taking on the role of Production Manager has allowed me to bring
various skill sets from my previous jobs into a comprehensive and
challenging role. Primarily it is my job to ensure that all postcards, cards,
enrollments and signage get produced without a hitch. My mother always said I
have “more eyes than a potato”, so a role that requires me to find and correct
any discrepancies is a challenge that I enjoy.

While keeping track of all the moving pieces involved with
our various postcard campaigns, not to mention signage
orders and everything else that we do, it’s important to
keep an eye on the details and make sure all the “i’s” are
dotted and the “t’s” are crossed. Literally! It’s critical
that I ensure everything gets out on time and accurately
so that we can keep customers coming through your doors.

One of the projects that I was a part of was updating and refreshing the look
of the artwork, and it’s great to see the new designs going to print. We’re
now working on some new designs and will continue to look for ways to make
this program even better. And as a bonus to me, it’s always nice to look at
something new once and a while – I’m looking at our artwork almost every day!

For those of you who attended the last event we held in Vancouver, it was
great to meet you and “put a face to a logo”! It was a wonderful opportunity
for me to see just how the programs are being used to improve your businesses
and I went away with many ideas on how we can continue to improve our
processes.

All the best to your continued success, Kathleen

A Bold $1,000 Move!

Long-time merchant, Marblehead Chowderhouse, has been doing their Thanksgiving gi certificate marketing
campaign through Royalty Rewards® for years, but in 2016 they decided to try selling $1,000 Gi Cards.

They offered incentives for members to buy a $1,000 gi card, which they promote using in-store signage. When
you buy $1,000 get $200 in FREE Bonus Certificates and 1,000 FREE Captains Club Points!!! (Bonus Certificates and
FREE points to be distributed quarterly).

Sounds BOLD doesn’t it? Using a Royalty Rewards® Thanksgiving-themed Sales
Boost marketing campaign, Marblehead continues to
get great results:

- in 2016 they made an additional $15,000
- in 2017 they made an additional $23,000

And in 2018: “We had 26 - $1000 GC Club purchases this year and are up over 2017 by $13,965 in GC sales from Nov 1
to Dec 19” – Marblehead Chowder House

Your business has customers that frequent your business enough who will easily see the value in this, they earn 20%
on the money they would have spent anyways AND get the bonus points & certificates. There is also the “elite” factor
to this, people love having something to brag about and feeling like they are part of a select group of people!

The benefits for you are enormous, cash up front, the gi certificate locks the customer into returning to you, and
the quarterly distribution of the bonuses means they’ll get bumped into earning an award certificate each quarter,
motivating them to return.

Do you think they are going to do Thanksgiving with us again? YOU BET!!

What BOLD move will you make this Thanksgiving?

Collecting Missing Email Addresses To Communicate With
Your Members Cost Effectively

When you have accurate email addresses in your database for your
members, you can send them special offers, remind them of upcoming
deadlines, encourage them to return, and keep them informed of what is
happening in your business. It improves your response rate to your email
marketing and allows for a cost-effective method of communicating with
your customers quickly. In an ideal world, every rewards member in your
database has given you their accurate email address, and your
“undeliverable emails” number is low. Your current numbers are shown
on your dashboard along the le -hand column of charts and looks like
the chart to the right.

One of our merchants, Kep's, Blacksmith & Cornerstone Inn worked with
their Coach to find a way to lower their number of “undeliverable emails”.
Together, they decided to try a sales boost campaign to get the members
without email address or wrong email addresses to come in and update
them. A marketing campaign has been designed specifically to target
these types of members.

The campaign had an 18.9%
redemption rate and generated
$8,967.80 in sales which are great
results for a sales boost campaign!

However, the true success is
having 159 people add or update
their email addresses, increasing
their ability to communicate with
them.

Boo! Light the way to safety...

Halloween is the second-largest commercial holiday in the US and Canada! If your customers are kids, or
have kids, this campaign will work for you!

Our Kids Flashlight Sales Boost includes the added
incentive of a kid’s flashlight instead of a discount to
return to your business. What kid doesn’t love ge ing a
gi ?

The benefit of a racting the children of rewards
members is collecting missing information on them, like
their birthday, and some merchants may find it
worthwhile growing a list of kids to market to as well.

We’ve reviewed two different flashlight options at our offices and you can purchase them for as li le as $1.34 each, and
you could bundle it with another product or service to entice both the kid and their parents. Talk to your Coach about
cra ing an offer will work well for you.

Pumpkin Giveaway
One of my favorite promotions for this time of year is to simply give away a FREE Pumpkin at your business to your
customers. This fun, engaging promotion works well this time of year for ANY business to bring your customers
back. Restaurants, Auto, Retail - works for any brick and mortar business. Simply talk to a local produce supplier or
farmer and pre-order your pumpkins early to get a good price.
This promotion works well because it’s simple. Your customers will be rushing to your business to grab their FREE
pumpkin. They won’t soon forget your generosity and you’ll be the talk of the town for some time to come.
We have seen this promotion rake in ghoulish pro ts year after year. Now it’s your turn to experience a SHOCKING
amount of returning customers and increased sales in October.
Results
Last year, merchants saw on average:
• Restaurant: Actual sales of $21,893.72 and a
$22 to $1 ROI
• Retail: Actual sales of $42,483.71 and a $70 to
$1 ROI

Canadian Thanksgiving
It’s Thanksgiving Day for Canada on Oct 14th. And
it’s not too soon to start thinking about the US
Thanksgiving that takes place on Nov 28th. I
encourage you to talk to your coach now to have
a plan in place to take advantage of the
upcoming holiday season.
Last year, one of the Canadian merchants used
this marketing campaign and saw $17,402.72 in
actual sales and a $151 to $1 ROI. That’s no small
sweet potatoes! (Sorry couldn’t resist.)

Football Season
Did someone say football? Oh yes, they did. Nothing like watching football in the middle of the season. Things are
starting to heat up for the playo s leading up to the largest sporting event in the world…Superbowl. Don’t let this
slipstream opportunity pass you by. Trust me, your customers are thinking about this sporting event right now so
get in on the action!
Results
Some merchants used this marketing campaign to
continue to get members in their doors and saw an
average ROI of $14 to $1.

Breast Cancer Awareness
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I love this promotion because you can help your customers do
something good for others. Breast cancer is a horrible disease that will develop in 1 in 8 women. This promotion
gives something back when they donate to the charity of your choice for breast cancer. I call this type of promotion
a win-win.

Results
Using the marketing campaign to the left, one auto
repair merchant received $20,292.78 in actual sales
and an ROI of $77 to $1.

“Brakes for Breasts” campaign
This campaign is for Automotive merchants
participating in the Automotive “Brakes for Breasts”
national campaign. For those, we have the version to the
left available.
Merchants who used it saw an ROI as high as $92 to $1
and actual sales of $54,731.74.
Important Note- If you are an automotive shop and
want to participate in this program please call your
Coach and let them know that you are registered for
this charity to be able to use the “Brakes for Breasts”
logo and marketing campaign.

October Car Care Month
Additionally, October is Fall Car Care Month. The big one that all Auto Repair shops wait for all year long. The Car
Care Council reminds motorists that checking their vehicles before the temperatures drop in their area is a sensible
way to avoid being stranded out in the cold and the unexpected expense of emergency repairs. Perfect time of the
year for an auto repair shop to promote Fall Checkups.

Auto repair merchants who use the above
marketing campaign saw great returns.

Results

This campaign does so well, we thought we’d
share more than one merchant’s results. Below
are just a few examples:

Merchant 5 $26,501.31 $55 to $1 Kids Flashlight Promotion (Premium)

How To “Reach And Motivate” Your Staff

That one word may bring tons of emotions and reactions to managers and owners
alike. “I hate my staff!” “I love my staff!” “How can I motivate my staff?” “They just don’t
care…” And most likely, all of these at the same time, depending on the minute.

A couple years ago I had a busboy take a broom and sweep off a table in the dining room. Yes. He used a broom.
During a busy time. Big sigh. I didn’t see it myself, but a customer alerted me to what he witnessed. I was alarmed.
Mortified would be a be er word.

I approached the busboy with anger and ready to let my full fury out on him. I did. He responded that a glass had
broken on the table and he determined using a broom was the safest way to clean up the glass and not get cut or
have shards of glass in a towel. I was impressed that he took time to consider and execute the method he thought
was best to clean the table safely. I apologized and praised him for making an excellent decision and then coached
him how his decision may be perceived by guests in the restaurant.

I have found that when staff is educated or understands the “why” to a specific task or procedure, it changes how
they approach the task and their job. They feel ownership, they feel like they are an important part of the
successful operation of the restaurant.

When staff lacks this bigger vision, tasks have no meaning and are completed because “they are supposed to.” Will
it get done? Maybe. Will you or a manager have to check and follow up and inspect? Absolutely. Because they do
not share in the vision.

Having an overarching culture or mission statement in place is helpful to create
this vision and get staff unified and working towards the same result. At my
restaurant my culture and mission statement are both “Happy Gringos.” That’s it.
These 2 words are the overarching principle that serve as a beacon to decision
making and operations in the restaurant.

That is not to say that we do not have procedures or standards in place. But when procedures are seen from the
point of view of our mission statement, it changes WHY they need to be done. It also can change WHY they need to
be done in a certain way.

And, since it is impossible to have a wri en procedure for everything that could happen in a business, an
overarching mission that is integrated and understood by the staff can give a framework to on-the-spot decision
making.

The beauty of this? Happy Gringos means something different to each staff member. I can’t think and train every
single way to produce Happy Gringos, but by se ing this as a beacon for the staff, I get to see what Happy Gringos
look like to every single staff member. And, quite frankly, its inspiring to see the many ways it appears. That’s not to
say I immediately understand how what they did furthers the mission, but it is always fun and educational to hear
how they thought it did – and then praise them for it.

What We Learned From
“Goats On The Roof”

By: Gary Leech, Platinum Elite Member

Business expansion creates numerous challenges - from fundraising and
design to correctly gauging the potential for success. Gathering knowledge
is vital to successful planning. This means far more than just wildly ambitious
thoughts jo ed down on paper. It helps to brainstorm with others who have
been in your position and can give you actual examples of what can go
wrong, what really worked well, and solutions to the many challenges that
will arise along the way.

A ending Royalty Rewards meetings have always proven to be invaluable to our business, but recently, it
provided the exact insight and affirmation we needed to gauge the potential success of a new opportunity.

We have been working on purchasing 12 acres of prime land adjacent to our property for a while now. A er
forging through the funding challenges, we will close on this $1 million property within the next few weeks.
We needed the property secured for parking but were very excited about its potential for expansion
opportunities. Adjacent to our property and along busy Route 1, it’s prime real estate, so we’ve been
brainstorming what we could do to develop it in the future.

With our food truck park and the doughnut shop/restaurant, we've been able to capture the dining
interests of visitors, but we think there's potential to build something where people want to spend the
entire day - if we plan it correctly and be smart with our use of the space. Even if we discover we can never
develop the residential portion of the property and just make it walking trails, if we can connect all the
elements in the front half, it could make this a very special location.

While at the conference in Vancouver, we found several parallels
when we visited this place called Coombs Old Country Market on
Vancouver Island, also known as “Goats on the Roof.” Its location isn't
easy to get to and is in the middle of basically nowhere, but it brings
in $12 million a year in revenue.

The layout was a great example of what we had started to envision for our new land. It was a nice
combination of rustic architecture and landscape, making it a comfortable inviting space for people. The
core is a large country store that literally has goats grazing on their grassed roof, but then there's all these
li le pockets of stores/restaurants which all are owned by the same place but look like they are
completely separated. There's an Italian restaurant, a Mexican restaurant, a Mexican food truck, a
doughnut shop, a market place, a po ery store, a garden store, etc.

Nothing we had there was particularly tasty or unique - outside of the goats, but the place was so well
laid-out that it felt like we were in a much bigger space than it actually was. The property did not have
much frontage on the main road, but it went very far back (90% of the parking was in the rear). This is very
similar to the land we are acquiring.

It was great to see this successful enterprise that was consistent in many ways to what we wish to do. We
want to create a space that has multiple uses, perhaps anchored by a similar large country store, and that
allows for people to spend their day or evening there. Luckily, we don't need goats to get people to our
area.
