Condition Code Upsell Letters Actual Results! Hi Dave, I rec d two checks for Core Aeration with Over-seeding upsells, with a tear-off portion stub that I did not recognize. It took me a good 5 minutes to figure out that it was from letters generated by the Automated Marketing Assistant program (in which we had recommended Core Aeration with Overseeding to thicken up those customers lawns). I was pleasantly surprised with these results $15 worth of letters/emails, we got $500 back in upsells. Needless to say, we are very excited to start off 2014 with this amazing tool in-hand. -JM
After One Year using Automated Marketing Assistant Custom Lawn s Rob Turley reports Actual Results! Gained roughly 20 30 new customers. Revenue: Just over $1800 in optional services (mainly aerations and limes) RGS: Why would you recommend this product to others? RT: I really didn t pay attention to the results until after the season. I was surprised by the results. Using Automated Marketing Assistant generated over $1800 worth of aerations and limes from the technician condition codes in the first season of use. This extra revenue came from very little effort on our part! A little time to initially set up letters and codes and an explanation to the technicians on which codes generated letters that s it! RGS: Experience using it? Ease? Technical Support? RT: Very easy to set up and use. Did not have to call Technical Support at all. RGS: What other RGS Products do you use? Why? RT: Just about all of them.. Just implemented the Emails (after service, confirmation, etc.), and referral program. Looking forward to seeing great results. RGS: How has Automated Marketing Assistant helped Custom Turf grow? RT: It helped a lot through increased upsells. Now that I saw its effectiveness, I am starting to use it to push other services.
