Our CloseBy® spotlight for February is Willow Gift and Home. This lovely boutique in Terre Haute, IN houses everything from gifts, to games, to garden accents! Heather Wolf, owner of Willow Gift and Home, has been a CloseBy® customer since July 2021. She signed up for CloseBy® to increase her store’s foot traffic and stay connected with her loyal customers.
Heather has really been enjoying sending out texts and creating promotions. Through her efforts, she has built her text list to 134 loyal subscribers! Recently, she ran a promotion where she and the team handed out 1,000 red envelopes to customers who stopped in throughout December. These envelopes had special offers inside to be redeemed in the first two weeks of January. This promotion was a success and the text program was the perfect way for Heather to remind customers to come back in and use the offers! Heather shares, “We had 4 grand prizes in the envelopes, and all 4 of those people came in. Because of this text and reminder we beat our January goal by 25%!”
CloseBy® has given Heather the opportunity to take the reins on when and how she wants to push sales. Whether it’s an overabundance of inventory or the store isn’t reaching its sales goal, a text can easily be sent out to combat the issue. This instantly creates 134 more opportunities to get a sale.
