EMAIL BLAST/INVITATION TEMPLATE FOR YOUR DATABASE
Our NIBS marketing and PR strategy #1 goal is bringing buyers and sellers together…..but we want to encourage you to do the same. Each exhibitor at our show maintains their own database of clients and prospects so we felt strongly that a customized invitation inviting these guests to the show and more importantly to your space/booth would help strengthen our strategy even more. See below for a customized example of what this invitation would like if we designed for you. It’s simple, contact us today and we will design for you and you push out to your database!
