All advertisers get password-protected access
to our exclusive online database of prospect listings. These sales leads are based on registrations from engaged
couples who have asked for information on specific products and services for their weddings.
These requests are matched to our advertisers' business categories to ensure that all leads
are qualified. If you see their contact data, it's because they are interested in what you have to offer.
You don't have to wait for a monthly mailing, and you don't have to transcribe leads from a
print-out. Cape Fear Wedding advertisers can download digital data at any time, 24-7. As soon as a couple submits
their registration online, their contact information is in the database and available for marketing use.
Each couple's listing includes their wedding date, estimated number
of guests, and the city where the wedding will take place, if known. This allows vendors to selectively target just
those prospects that are a good match for their schedules, locations, or preferred type of event.
Key points about our sales lead system:
- Interactive access to our online database of prospective brides,
including contact data, wedding dates, and product-and-service
needs.
- Convenient lead listing options: see the newest registrants
first, or list by wedding date, or alphabetize by bride's or groom's
name.
- Versatile data formats: download targeted lead information as
you need it. Options range from basic mailing-label format to a complete delimited
dataset for import into your own spreadsheet or database programs.
- A brand-new feature, online in 2010, allows advertisers to send mass
emails, in plain text or HTML, to all qualified prospects without the need
for any special sortware.
See for yourself: Let us give you a live, "hands-on" demonstration.
Whenever you're in front of your computer with 10 minutes to spare, we'll walk you through the leads database with
a temporary log-in. Just give us a call any time during business hours, 9-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. (And if you
can't do the demo during those hours, let us know and we'll schedule an after-hours or weekend time.) These sales
leads are based on registrations from engaged couples who have asked for information on specific products and services
for their weddings.
It's hard to appreciate how powerful and versatile a tool this is until you see it for
yourself. If you could make good use of hundreds of targeted sales leads each year, you owe it to yourself to check
this out. Call today at 910-392-5228 or toll-free at 888-755-0550.
Versatile, ready-to-use sales management database
|
Many of our clients tell us they would like to make better use of the
sales leads they get with their advertising contract, but don't have
the time or technical knowledge they need.
We are now providing a pre-formatted Access database
designed for wedding vendors to keep track of both current and prospective
clients. It allows Cape Fear Wedding's proprietary sales referral
data to be imported for your use in a quick, easy process.
Current advertisers can download this blank database, along
with complete easy instructions. Log in and click on the "List Prospects" link
to take advantage of this free service for our clients.
