newsXpress members highly sought after by The Lucky Charm

Small newsagency marketing group The Lucky Charm appears obsessed about newsXpress and its members as evidenced by yet another spam email campaign sent from them to newsXpress members.

Rather than serving other newsagents with valuable insights that help the channel, TLC spams newsXpress members with a claim that members are enjoying double-digit growth. The numbers presented cannot be verified.

Tired of the TLS spam, newsXpress members mock their communication in private discussion as desperate communications from a group struggling to grow to be big enough to make a difference.

Newsagency marketing group launches pop-up shop advice

Newsagency marketing group newsXpress last week published advice to members on how to establish, market and run a pop-up shop to drive bonus revenue for the business.

This proprietary to newsXpress advice is another business planning and management resource for members.

The pop-up shop advice opens with positioning information prior to providing comprehensive and practical advice:

Pop-up retail is a new name for an old activity – taking advantage of a shop or space available for low rent for a limited period of time.

Pop-up retail has become popular in recent years with more storefronts being available due to a glut of available retail space.

A well-stocked and run pop-up retail shop can provide a good revenue boost to your business. It can also help you attract new shoppers and provide a place where you can move items that may be currently slow moving in your business.

The key is to approach a pop-up opportunity as short term. From the outset you need a timetable plan and you need to stick to it.
