Your next customer may need a better reason to choose you… not another discount. In this special live-session episode of the Marketing Boost NEXT, Captain Marco Torres and Glenn Purdy brainstorm with Harlequin Murray, Reese Copeland, and Bryant Wilson for a practical conversation about using incentives to generate leads, encourage referrals, and build stronger customer relationships. Harlequin shares how travel incentives helped her reach an average of 10–15 one-on-one meetings a month and how two donated trips helped a nonprofit raise $770 at a silent auction.

From Reese’s memorable pink-plunger introduction to Bryant’s family reunion fundraising plans, the conversation opens up creative ways to reward appointments, referrals, donations, and repeat business. Explore QR-code giveaways, customer appreciation, and a live Spin-to-Win campaign demonstration, with ideas you can adapt to your own business. Give people a reason to take the next step and a reason to remember your business. The sale may come later. The reason they remember you can start today. #MarketingBoost #IncentiveMarketing #LeadGeneration #ReferralMarketing #MBSPodcast ⏱
