Here's how it works
Upload a special, competition or new product
Be sure to include a tantalising product image and a compelling offer.
Choose an email campaign
Choose to be included in our pre-show, emails. You can also choose if you want to be in a new products, specials or other targeted communication.
Drive traffic to your profile
Email boosts drive visitor traffic to your special, competition or new product.
Where do email boosts show? What do they look like?
Show emails are sent to our extensive visitor database pre, during and post-show. Email boosts include a headline, image and blurb, as well as the text about a special.
Please see the example below:
If I don't choose an email boost, will my profile still be included in Show emails?
In most circumstances, only boosted specials, competitions and new products will be included in emails. In some cases, we may choose to highlight non-boosted specials, competitions or new products if we feel they are of strong interest to our visitor database. In these cases, boosted items will always appear first.
