The Market Runners Giving Away Flowers for Every Facebook Share

MELBOURNE, Australia - July 2, 2013 - PRLog -- New and existing customers are being encouraged to share their orders when checking out online, a spokeswoman for the business confirmed. As an incentive for sharing the good word, The Market Runners will include a complimentary bouquet of flowers to the person’s box.  

Flowers range in price from $9.95 to $19.95, and come in a range of varieties. Among these are roses, orchards, irises, heliconia and molucca balms, available in a range of pretty colours. They were recently added to the existing product list, which also includes fruit, vegetables, dairy and baked goods.

The business is hoping that this promotion will open up new opportunities to reach potential customers on Facebook, as well as rewarding existing customers for their ongoing business.

‘It’s a way of showing our appreciation to our loyal customer base, and we’re also excited about getting more exposure,’ the spokeswoman explained.

The company has steadily grown over the past year, both in terms of its service area and its online presence. Having recently started servicing the Mount Waverley and Blackburn area, The Market Runners (http://themarketrunners.com.au/) will be looking for increased exposure.  

‘We’re always having people ask when and if we’re going to deliver to their suburb, so the demand is definitely there.’

Like is the case for many businesses, developing a strong Facebook following has allowed The Market Runners to connect with their customers on a much more personal level. The flower giveaway comes just a few weeks after The Market Runners ran a competition in which Facebook fans submitted a photo of their favourite dish.

If you’re an existing customer, you can enter your order details on the appropriate Facebook tab and flowers will be added (https://www.facebook.com/TheMarketRunners). New customers are notified of the promotion when their order is confirmed.
