XTRM
Trader&trade is an innovative new marketing solution that increases customer
loyalty, extends the life of marketing promotions, and increases program
success rates and effectiveness by enabling XTRM members to trade and sell
awards. |
| |
Promotions
often go to waste |
| |
| |
 |
Marketers face a significant problem every
day. Promotions, discounts and awards that are issued at significant expense
are never received, viewed or redeemed |
 |
If the target of the award or promotion
doesn't need or want what you are selling, your promotion would usually be
ignored or thrown out, reducing your overall marketing effectiveness and
increasing your promotional costs. |
|
| |
XTRM
Trader takes this unique approach one step farther |
| |
When you
issue an XTRM award, you will know the exact demographic of the recipient such
as type of competitor, success rate, target sport, level of success, individual
ranking in the XTRM system, etc. |
| |
| |
 |
Make your promotion sellable or tradable with
other XTRM members |
 |
Get additional reach and frequency and
exposure to other members for the price of a single promotion. |
