We’re all familiar with offers like ‘Buy one get one free’, and ‘Buy two for the price of one’- so familiar that they can sometimes wash over us without creating an impact.
To get attention, you sometimes need to do something a little bit different. One offer idea I came across recently in the United States was ‘Buy One, send one to a friend for free’.
The idea is that when you order a product, the company send a lesser product to a friend with your compliments. So for example, you order a shirt and are then asked to designate a friend to receive a tie. Or you order a crate of wine and a friend receives a bottle of the same wine.
This seems like a ‘win-win-win’ situation. As a customer, you get to do a favour for a friend. The friend gets a free product. And the company get to make contact with a new potential customer, effectively financed by the original purchase.
Is this something you could use in your business? I’m sure it could be used in mine.

The Virtual Farmers Market
Farmers and small scale food producers usually have to rely on wholesale distributors to make the link to wholesale buyers like restaurants and specialist food retailers.
In New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, there’s now a different solution. Farmers Web allows producers to sell their produce to restaurants and shops direct. It’s a low cost virtual farmers market.
I know little about the market here in the UK, but I’d imagine small scale food producers face a similar marketing problem.
Could you set up a website like Farmer’s Web to help them get their goods to the restaurant and specialist retail market? If this works in the US, I can see no reason why it wouldn’t work here too.
