Dunkin' Donuts Christmas Present Ideas for the Teachers!

12/13/2017

0 Comments

 
Hello,

I am the Marketing and Community Relations Director for a network of Dunkin’ Donuts that includes the store on New Falls of Neuse.

In the month of December, we are having a special promotion called Treats for Teachers.  Customers can purchase a $3 coupon that allows a teacher to redeem for a donut of his/her choice and a medium hot coffee at any of 10 local stores through January, 2018.  A pack of ten coupons can be purchased for $25.

The coupons can either be left on a special board in the store so that any teacher can enjoy their treat, or can be taken by the customer and given to a specific teacher.

Each time a customer purchases a coupon, he or she will be offered a coupon for a free coffee on a future visit.

I expect that the stores will have the coupons and all promotional materials for the program by tomorrow (5th) and we plan to offer the coupons for sale all month.   Can you help us promote this program to parents of your school?  We think it is a nice way to give a little thanks to great teachers!

I am attaching the PDF of the flyer and I welcome you to call me if you need any additional information.

Thank you!
