newsXpress members running bold front of store displays are reporting excellent results with the Pacific magazines WIN A CAR promotion – displays like that from one of our corporate stores on the weekend. While compact, the tactical placement of the display is key to its success. The display unit has to be checked regularly to ensure pockets have sufficient stock.
