Return your lotion bottle

Has anyone tried putting a little sticker on the bottom of lotion bottles that says "return this bottle and recieve a free upgrade" or anything similar? I am trying to find a way to get more people to buy lotion here instead of other places, obviously, like everyone else. Think something like this may help?

Re: Return your lotion bottle

I love the idea, how about $5 off your next lotion purchase. You could put the coupon price in relation to the original price point of the bottle bought.

Re: Return your lotion bottle

Great idea! I saw this on a bottle from another salon. It was an oval sticker with the salon name, address and website. I like your idea using it as a coupon. Do you know where to get these made?

^ we have ours with our salon name and address, phone # and they get 15% off their next lotion purchase - we've been doing it for 2 years now and people have responded really well to it.

Re: Return your lotion bottle

oh, that's a good idea also. I was thinking the free upgrade might get some people that only use the smaller beds into the bigger ones though. People who might not pay the price under normal circumstances, but once they've tried it they like it so much they might start buying sessions in those beds sometimes. I don't know.

Re: Return your lotion bottle

sun girl I like this idea so much if you can email me your logo I'll custom make a label for you. I'll get you the Avery style number and you can print your own if you like. :)

That is a great idea.

Re: Return your lotion bottle

I think that people that are buying their lotion elseware are paying less than $5.00 off your prices (Ebay perhaps). So unless you can make it almost comperable, whats the point for them? How about 10% off and a free upgrade. Ebay can't give them free upgrades. 10% off isn't close to ebay price, but they get the lotion that day, no shipping costs, and they get to try the big bed they've had their eye on. i like it!

Re: Return your lotion bottle

These would be customers that are already buying their lotion from us and not ebay. I think it's to keep their repeat business.
