Marketing campaign boosts local economy after BID renewal success

Shop Royston at Christmas Campaign

Our client, local BID organisation, Royston First BID asked us to develop a competition campaign to encourage the community to shop locally over Christmas.  

This resulted in the ‘Shop Royston at Christmas’ campaign, to invigorate the local community and support independent shops and eateries during the critically-commercial holiday season.

Competition Campaign Details

Duration: December 1st to December 24th 2023.

Mechanism: Customers entered the campaign competition by scanning QR codes at participating outlets and entering their details.

Prizes: Two prizes were awarded – one for a customer, drawn at random and another for the shop with the most entries.
