Larson Note: Would a coupon push your brand? Buy one get one free, 10% off, We see it in the newspapers and online but for your company? Never underestimate the power to the coupon. Some people are adamant about coupon clipping and using them. If the shoe fits wear it, or in this case try it. Run a test with an online coupon or a print coupon, can it hurt?
