Crunch Pak Offers Back-To-School Promotion

Crunch Pak

Crunch Pak, an industry leader in fresh sliced apples, is offering a back-to-school promotion via its electronic billboard in New York City’s Time Square.

Beginning Sunday, the electronic billboard will carry a message asking consumers to “text the word APPLES to the number 65047” for a special offer. When consumers do, they will be sent a link to a coupon for $1 off any size package of Crunch Pak sliced apples.

“It’s a lot to communicate in 15 seconds,” said Tony Freytag, SVP of sales and marketing. “We are excited to see the response and we’re fairly certain no other produce company will have this type of back-to-school promotion this fall.”

Cashmere, Wash.-based Crunch Pak is giving the digital coupon a unique number in order to track the redemption rate and measure how many people view and respond to messages on the billboard.

Marcos Menendez, CEO of Momares, the company managing the electronic coupon for Crunch Pak, said mobile coupons perform very well in terms of redemption.

“Mobile sweepstakes, contests and coupons are the most effective way to build a database of mobile customers,” Menendez said. “Our mobile coupon campaigns average 10 percent redemption rates; text (SMS) coupon delivery rates are 95 percent.

“Mobile coupon program customer retention rates are 98 percent, which means there is a very low unsubscribe, opt-out rate,” he added. “Mobile coupons are stored in the customer’s mobile phone and are carried with the customer to the store. Coupon code can be offered for redemption or a barcode mobile coupon shown for scanning.”

This latest promotion is part of a yearlong marketing campaign that puts Crunch Pak’s fresh apple product portfolio on display on a large electronic billboard in the heart of New York City’s Times Square.

The billboard, located at 1541 Broadway, is the only bi-directional screen in Times Square with screens that measure 10-ft. by 90-ft. The first Crunch Pak electronic ad started running in May and will appear more than 17,000 times over the agreement period. On Aug. 22, Crunch Pak will be sampling its fresh product under the billboard for five hours in order to generate further consumer awareness for the company and its portfolio of products.
