Now that I re-posted Rick's email, I wanted to comment on his question: "Any suggestions to help bring people in the doors? A little Kungfoo party maybe. Enter the Dragon???"
I have a referral program going and have already filled 2 more memberships from personal referral (with a discount for the referring member). I am also a big fan of Guerrilla marketing, so I have prepared mini posters to hang at Panera Bread. I know this is discussed elsewhere, but anyone else with suggestions?
