RAB Monthly Webinar
Raising Revenues with Co-op
One-Hour, Live Online Webinar
Thursday, July 23, 2015
11:00 am Eastern/10:00 am Central
Presenter: Brandeis C. Hall, RAB's VP/Professional Development
Each year, millions of co-op dollars go unused because sellers don't know about it or don't know how to use it efficiently. While local retailers often bemoan a lack of advertising monies, there are thousands of manufacturers who will pay for all or part of your local retailers' advertising through co-op funding. Learn to prospect co-op-rich categories, access digital co-op and seasonal co-op-funded promotions, and the most common co-op mistakes to avoid as you get up to speed on co-op advertising.
