SuddenValues Service
The SuddenValues marketing service is composed of three components;
1. Merchant Customer Loyalty Program
The service enables local Merchants to develop a functioning database of their loyal customers. SuddenValues enters all customers’ names and maintains this database. Then, through permission based email campaigns, sends these customers values/offers giving them incentive to return to the Merchant sooner and more offten. Allowing Merchants to maximize customer returns through loyalty based values. You can copy and paste these links into your email browser to view a few examples of our email campaigns.

2. Local Weekly Email Update
Local consumers who have signed up for a Merchant's Customer Loyalty Program receive a permission based, Weekly Email Update from SuddenValues that contains special offers of each participating Merchant in the area. This exposes each Merchant's special offers to the customers of the other local Merchants in a market. Through this unique "cross-marketing" effort, SuddenValues provides new customers for our network of Merchants.
3. Local SuddenValues Website
Consumers are driven to a locally focused SuddenValues website through the Customer Loyalty Programs, Weekly Email Updates and grass-root advertising efforts. Each Merchant receives a web page that includes key information on the business, including a link to their actual website and all current values/offers they have available. Due to this targeted permission based marketing, SuddenValues ensures it's ranking within every "local" market search engine. In this way, SuddenValues does not have to rely upon Internet "clicks" to achieve success in local markets. Copy and paste these links into your email browser to go to one of our local sites.
