Example

Dear [Name] The best restaurants are not national chains, but independents like you. They are assembly lines … you are an artiste. And that’s not easy… Constantly changing trends are hard to keep up with. You may not have the big research budget the chains have, but you know your customers … and what keeps them happy. Even so, you’re always trying to up your advantage. But how? Next month’s annual Restaurateur Conference & Trade Show has the newest innovations and cutting edge ideas. It’s a “must see.” Chill-O-Matic will be there. We’re showcasing our new LBR Coolers. They have energy-efficient compressors, condensation-free glass doors, and come in nine sizes. Plus, their lightweight design and built-in rollers make them easy to move – even when full. And, they’re easy on your budget. A study by LR Brown & Associates found our LBR Coolers are priced 28.2% lower than the competition. We’re giving away half-price tickets so you can be there too. But hurry, supply is limited. It’s almost showtime and we’d love to meet you. Click Here and we’ll pay half your admission. Sincerely, Jane Akinson Marketing Director Chill-O-Matic, Inc.
