ORANGE COUNTY CHAMBER’S NEW ORANGE ADVANTAGE PROGRAM RESULTS IN $27K SUCCESS FOR O/A MERCHANTS AND $900 FOR O/A CARDHOLDER
For Immediate Release December 10, 2013
Hudson
Valley Kitchen Design, a division of Hudson Valley Contracting Group, was one
of the first Orange County Chamber of Commerce members to sign on as an Orange
Advantage merchant. A few weeks later, they wrapped up a $20,000 sale as a
direct result of being able to offer customer rewards through Orange Advantage.
The OA customer then redeemed the reward at Sohns Appliances in Walden and
purchased nearly $7,000 in appliances.
“Hudson
Valley Kitchen Design is ecstatic for the opportunity Orange Advantage was able
to provide our business,” said Lisa Santacruz, Director of Business Development
for the firm. “This is a special marketing tool that will not only grow your
business and increase your sales, but more important, enhance your customer
satisfaction. Overall, participating in this program will strengthen your
company’s brand and grow customer loyalty.”
Santacruz
explained the details of the sale. “The customers came in to Hudson Valley
Kitchen Design for a consultation about possibly redoing their kitchen. Kitchen
Designer James Bruyn explained the Orange Advantage program to them. The couple
was leaning toward waiting for the spring to start their project, but the fact
that they could earn rewards from working with Hudson Valley Kitchen Design
that could be applied to another purchase for their remodel prompted the
closing of the sale.” Hudson Valley Kitchen Design offers a 5% reward on any
amount for cabinet boxes purchased. This customer was able to earn
approximately $900 in rewards that they will be spending at other Orange
Advantage merchants to complete their kitchen. “But the sale didn’t end there,”
Santacruz continued. “Because the customers were so excited for their rewards,
they hired Hudson Valley Kitchen Design to design and install their new
kitchen. The benefits of Orange Advantage extend well beyond just what the
reward is offered on.”
Orange
Advantage supports local businesses by providing rewards to consumers who shop
at those businesses. www.OrangeAdvantageNY.com
