Copy for a sales promotion campaign

Background The starting point for this campaign was the idea of the MiracleSaw, a bottle-opener and keyring based on the Timber Center logo. It opened doors, bottles, and later elements of the campaign. The purpose of the campaign was to encourage chippies and builders to try out Timber Center.

I suggested calling those other stages MiracleDeal and MiracleDraw – and the MiracleEvent was born. Much of the copy for all three stages was written by me, as was most of the in-house MiracleEvent manual. Apart from exhortations to do well, the manual included sample conversations for cold-calling mailed customers during the campaign.

 
the MiracleSaw
opening quotation marks How to use your MiracleSaw
stage 1 Too much hard graft works up a terrible thirst. Sweat pours off by the bucketload.
stage 2 Grab bottle of favourite thirst-quenching refreshment. Hook MiracleSaw under bottle cap and lift.
stage 3 Raise bottle to lips and pour. Ask yourself, what else does the MiracleSaw unlock?


Your local Timber Center is a source of great deals and great ideas. It doesn't just stock a huge range of timber, sheets, and joinery, it offers top trade value and a speed of service that brings tradesmen back time after time.

Timber Center produces miracles, such as a saw that opens doors and quenches thirsts. Which makes the MiracleSaw well worth holding on to.
