ASHI is excited to announce the launch of their 2023 Holiday Sweepstakes to assist its retail partners in reaching their target demographic and increasing their sales through social media. Retailers will be able to attract current and prospective customers to their stores by utilizing Social Media outlets such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, etc. The Sweepstakes is free and provides ASHI’s retail partners with a unique marketing opportunity to broaden their client base as social media postings are liked and shared by customers, their friends and family. Additionally, retailers capture consumer data, such as email addresses and demographic information, which can serve as the groundwork for building customer relationships.
“This form of marketing can drastically improve the retailers brand and potentially enable them to increase their sales!” says Mr. Pandya, partner at ASHI. “ASHI wants our retail partners to be known as the holiday brand in their market.”
ASHI has partnered with Avalon Solution to develop the first vertically integrated Social Media Sweepstakes Technology Platform – JewelSweep™ – for the jewelry industry, allowing retailers to take advantage of this unique branding and marketing channel.
ASHI invites all of its retail partners to participate in this innovative and free marketing initiative. The Sweepstakes began on October 16, 2023, and will end on January 2, 2024. One winner will be picked at random from the retailer page with the most Sweepstakes submissions on January 10, 2024.
One lucky customer, chosen from the winning retailer’s pool of entries, will win the grand prize of a beautiful Mixed Fancy Shape Pendant crafted in 14K yellow gold, with a MSRP of $3,995.
ASHI also has a Custom Sweepstakes option, which ensures a winner from the retailers’ specific store. This gives retailers the freedom to market the sweepstakes as they want while significantly growing followers on their social media platforms. For more information on the Custom option, contact ASHI.
