We’re going to make Hampshire’s Business Owners Smile.
Business owners have been having a hard time lately. What with the pensions crisis, rising rates and slowing sales, it's been a pretty tough few months.
We've decided to provide a little local cheer and give away up to 1001 free Oi, Smile bags packed with great product samples, gifts and vouchers to Hampshire business owners in the hope that it makes their day, and makes them smile. You're probably wondering, what's in this Smile bag? The honest answer is, we don't know yet. We'll be asking companies to sponsor the Smile campaign by providing samples of their products. Bags could contain bars of soap, blocks of chocolate, a seasonal tipple, or maybe even a teddy bear. We hope the Smile bag will be full of some great stuff that you, or your family / staff will love. Don't worry, if we don't think it will make you, or your family Smile, it won't be going in the bag.
Each business owner that registers for one of the free Smile goody bags by December 15th will go into a prize draw. One lucky company will win 10 hours' free business development consulting with us here at Outside ideas to help grow their business. As a business development consultancy based in Hampshire, we work with local businesses to provide an outside perspective and help companies grow. Whether you want to increase your revenue streams, or try some new marketing strategies, Outside ideas can help.
We're also partnering with Youth Options, a local Hampshire charity which supports 30,000 socially and economically disadvantaged youngsters each year. Youth Options supports young people by providing social and cultural education, aiding 60 local organisations which work with young people, advocating for them, and mentoring programs. Outside ideas will donate 25 percent of its profits to Youth Options, and money raised will go towards those projects. Chris Allcock, Inclusion Manager at Youth Options, said, "Hampshire Youth Options is really excited to be involved in the Smile campaign, and we thank Oi for their continued support for our work with young people across Hampshire."
We're up to 61 people registered for the bags now and have two companies interested in sponsoring us. We're still a few off our target and will distribute the bags when we hit them. Register now to help us hit our target!
Are you a sponsor?
We're looking for corporate sponsors from Hampshire and the UK for inclusion in the first ever Oi, Smile bag.
Sponsors of the Oi, Smile campaign will help generate a feel good factor amongst British business and reinforce the Buy British message (which we believe is crucial in economic hard times like these). Including money off vouchers from sponsors in the bag will offer an automatic incentive to buy amongst our business champions.
If you would like to receive more information about Smile, you'd like to get involved as a sponsor or you're a business owner from Hampshire and you'd like to receive one of our free Smile bags, feel free to drop us a line using the contact form here.
We really look forward to hearing from you.
