Fall 2017 WAYNE BUSINESS ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Hello WBA, Let's talk WOL...Wayne Open Late! First, thank you Gloria Clawson, WBA Board Member and owner of Kids 'N Kribs, for proposing and following through on the idea. Gloria has been organizing the whole thing to make this weekly event work. Thanks too to Deanna Doane, WBA Vice President and Owner of Click Canyon, for all the work on social media and to Mike Libert, WBA Board Member and Owner of Main Line Print Shop, Bridget Libert, and Alanna Clunen of Main Line Print Shop for getting the design work and printing done. Wayne Open Late is more than a retail promotion. The main goals of the program are to drive/attract overall additional consumers to Wayne to increase revenue for local merchants and to market/create excitement of Wayne as a destination town (shop, dine, stay, indulge). The 18-month program is centered around the "Late Night Thursdays" concept where merchants stay open till 8pm once a week (most restaurants remain open as usual till after 8pm). This committee-led initiative include additional marketing tactics to drive traffic (from outside Wayne) to Wayne, as well as online and offline promotion of the program's activities and events. WOL started mid-August and 6 weeks later the first theme night happened with huge success. Wayne was packed with Trick and/or Treaters. I thought free wine was the only catch attraction to get folks in – turns out, free sugar works as well!! Retailers went all out, a treat bowl of various in store discounts at Coco Blu, Song for Seeds performed at Bella Donna, costume contest at Main Point Books, and Mr. and Mrs. Incredible ran over from Young Sports to hand out candy at Kids 'N Kribs. Over at Louella, NEW MEMBER ALERT! they were handing out free BonBon earrings, which I heard were delicious. Can't leave out Renewal who transformed their showroom into a haunted house!! There were 25 retailers open for business and participating. One incentive that is helping drive traffic to the stores on Thursday’s is the WBA $5 reward card. Participating retailers are able to hand out $5 reward cards with $30+ purchase between 5 and 8pm on Thursday’s. The WBA $5 reward cards can then be used at another participating store business in the WBOD at any time. This incentive ends on November 25th – Small Business Saturday. We are still accepting sponsorships for our Christmas in Wayne Event happening December 1st. Expose your business to the community at this very popular event. Contact Board Member Chery Atkins-Lubinski, Christmas in Wayne Committee Chairperson for more information. Email: [email protected] Please remember to always shoot the WBA an email with concerns, suggestions...or heck even compliments!! Info@ waynebusiness.com Last thing, a positive experience is what brings people back. If you see someone struggling with the kiosks please help them in a positive way. Press the buttons for them, let them know they don’t need to pay after 6pm, or on Sundays or holidays. Let them know that they don’t have to place the ticket in the car window. It will go a long way.
