Tucking an extra in your customers’ shopping bags is a nice gesture anytime, and especially during the holidays. It shows appreciation…and builds word-of-mouth. That’s the shop that put a little something in my bag I was telling you about.

I have a Santa dish with candy canes on my counter for customer to help themselves. They love the treat. Also had suckers for Halloween, hearts for Valentines. Love the card idea also.

I love this idea….so I have punched some whole in the corner of my business card that has the 10% coupon on back, I have the ribbon and tomorrow AM stopping to get candy canes…I am gonna attach the card to the candy cane with the ribbon…I think I am going to take them around to all the businesses in the village as well as give them out at store and also keep a stock in my car for when I am out and about. 🙂 Thanks Kate.
