50+ Promotions & Special Events To Power-Up Your Sales, Cement Customer Loyalty & Drive Foot Traffic Into Your Store

You’re invited to join retail experts Bob Negen & Susan Negen in Las Vegas on Saturday, March 8, 2025 for an entire day of practical, tactical learning and a treasure-trove of ideas for promotions and special events. It’s world-class retail education combined with world-class buying opportunities at ASD Market Week!

It’s no secret. Sales, promotions, and special events keep your business exciting and give your customers a reason to keep shopping with you - and buying from you - you again and again.

A Great Line Up Of Promotions & Special Events Lets You...

Separate yourself from the competition (because they can’t or won’t do what you CAN!)
Engage your customers (and cement their loyalty to your store,)
Connect with your community (whether it’s your local geographic area or a far-flung interest group,)
Strengthen your core strategies (which makes everything you do more effective,)
AND MAKE MORE MONEY!

In other words, they are absolutely critical for your retail success. But you can’t just HOPE that customers will walk through the door, it’s your responsibility to make it happen. And that’s where the Power Promotions workshop comes in!

You’ll Get 50+ Ideas For Promotions & Special Events That…

Have a proven track record (and are used by thousands of independent retailers across North America - and beyond,)
Work for all kinds of different industries (from accessory boutiques to zoo gift shops,)
Do NOT require spending lots of cash or giving huge discounts (even NO cost and NO discounts at all,)
Maximize your buying at ASD Market week (which boosts your bottom-line profits and puts money in the bank!)

Not only will you get ideas for over 50 fantastic promotions, you’ll also get key concepts, strategic insights into which promotions are best for your business, and best practices to make them WORK in your store.

I wanted to thank you so much for the idea of doing the Holiday Preview Sale. We ran it for the first time this year. We saw increased revenues in November of 60% over last year, and in December 50% over last year. We also had our first six-figure month in December!

You’ll Leave With A Plan That Puts You In Control

While ideas and inspiration are great, it’s what you DO with those ideas that counts. Education without action is merely entertainment!

That’s why this workshop is designed so you’ll leave with a promotional calendar in place for 2025 and beyond. In fact, this plan is the foundation from which your marketing efforts can continuously grow and improve – year, after year, after year.

Not only will we walk you through building your plan, you’ll also learn from your fellow retailers about which events have worked for them throughout the year.

An ALL-TIME LOW Price!

Because of the generous collaboration with ASD Market Week, the registration for this workshop (regular price $997) is a super-low $249. It’s an amazing deal on this day of learning.

But, through XXX day, fast-movers can register for an incredible ALL TIME LOW price of $149.

Just ONE idea for ONE promotion, or ONE small tweak to an existing event, or ONE new concept could pay for this workshop, 10X, (no brainer!), 100X (extremely do-able), or even 1000X (it has happened!) on this small investment.

And that’s doesn’t even take into account the cumulative value of running ALL these promotions and events not once, but year after year. The Lifetime Value to your business from this single day could be staggering.

PLUS, It's Guaranteed!

To make the decision even easier, this workshop is fully guaranteed. If, at the mid-day break, you’re not completely convinced that you’ve gotten your money’s worth leave. Go sit by the pool or take in a show. You’ll get a refund for your entire registration fee. No hassles, no hoops to jump through.

There’s absolutely no reason NOT to register and join us on March 8, 2025 for this awesome day of ideas, inspiration, and empowerment. You either make money, or you get yours back. There’s absolutely no risk.

Don't take our word for it, see what some of our independent retailers just like you have to say...

Our 2nd annual Shop 4 Schools event was a success! It grew from last year and I am even more excited for next year. We had many people who came to town who had never been and people said "I've been meaning to...and this was a great reason to come out." We got press from both major news stations. Thanks again, Bob and Susan!

HOLY COW!! First ever Holiday Preview Sale = HUGE. Next time I'm scheduling more staff!! People were great though. We had 4 times our normal volume and sales total for the day with just two of us working. We had large individual sales, signed people up for classes, converted “lookers” to buyers and had fun the entire day! We crushed it!
