The Power of Request Sampling • The main cost of sampling is creating and distributing the samples themselves. • But when samples are not wanted, or not needed, they are often discarded. • Request sampling solves this huge issue: • Request samples are desired by the household • Request samples get used by the requesters • Request samples lead to trial and conversion
Canoe Brings Scale and Sophisticationto Request Sampling • The impact and reach of national TV advertising used to drive sampling requests. • The ease of making a request though the simple click of a television remote. • The inherent power of a sample, delivered direct to a consumer’s mailbox. Combined to deliver sampling powerdirectly to highly motivated consumers
Who might consider Canoe Sampling • Brands currently executing traditional request sampling programs • New product introductions with sampling plans • Brand restages, reintroductions withsampling plans • Brands with on-going sampling efforts • Brands with active trial-size manufacturingin place
