Marketing strategies

There are several ways small and large businesses can  entice prospective clients. One of the simplest and most effective is by running a competition. Here is an example below:

To celebrate Valentine’s Day and the publication of Tweetie Pie – a little book of romantic tweets – I thought I would set you a little literary challenge. For the chance to win a box of sublime Prestat chocolates and a selection of Valentine reads – including Postcards from the Heart by the divine Ella Griffin – send me a Valentine story in 140 words. The best one wins – it’s that simple.
Whizz your entry off to competitions@orionbooks.co.uk with the subject line ‘Tweetie Pie’.
