 Easyhome took the Retail Marketing/Advertising Award in the
mid-size category. The award is presented to a retailer that has
developed a creative and successful marketing campaign by
integrating two or
more tactics.
Easyhome, Canada's largest rent to own company, was one of only
18 Canadian retailers honored by the The Retail Council of
Canada (RCC) at the annual Excellence in Retailing Awards
Dinner last night.
The awards recognize the retail industry's top achievers
and were presented as part of STORE 2007 - Canada's Retail
Conference.
Easyhome took the Retail Marketing/Advertising Award in the
mid-size category. The award is presented to a retailer that has
developed a creative and successful marketing campaign by
integrating two or
more tactics.
Easyhome won with its successful "A New Way to Look at Buying"
campaign designed to educate customers about the benefits of
leasing. The campaign increased revenues, improved customer
relationships, and had a positive impact on overall customer
satisfaction.
RTO Online interviewed Dave Maries, easyhome's VP Marketing and
Merchandising, at the 2007 easyhome national Conference in
Niagara, Ontario. Maries discussed easyhome's marketing strategy
including the "New Way to Look at Buying" campaign and the
decision process involved in deciding to remove the word "rent"
from the company's name.
Listen to the audio podcast with Dave Maries.
"Retailers of all sizes from coast to coast are accomplishing
some
amazing initiatives in the areas of corporate social
responsibility, employee
training, retail marketing, multi-channel retailing and online
retailing,
among other areas," said Diane J. Brisebois, President and CEO, Retail Council of Canada.
"RCC is proud to showcase these achievements at the annual
Excellence in Retailing Awards event in front of their industry
peers."
The Retail Council of Canada represents more than 40,000
stores of all
retail formats, including independent merchants, regional and
national mass
and specialty chains, and online merchants.
