Earlier this week Foodservice Rewards team members were busy signing up new Canadian operators at the annual CRFA trade show in Toronto. During the three day show over 250 new operators joined the program and will soon be earning rewards! Several Sponsors supported the effort by handing out bonus point cards to prospective new members. Canadian membership is now approaching over 8,000 operators!

Kellogg Canada wasted no time in leveraging their partnership with Foodservice Rewards with their past customers.
Kellogg Canada wasted no time in leveraging their partnership with Foodservice Rewards to engage & enroll past customers.

Kellogg Canada also cleverly equiped Sales with customized gift cards used to promote Kellogg’s at tradeshows and during field sales calls.
Kellogg’s used a custom eBlast to announce their entry to the thousands of Canadian foodservice operators already in the program. To help operators quickly find and enter those Kellogg’s product codes, they also promoted a bonus point sweepstakes to encourage rapid redemption.

We’re excited to announce that Kellogg’s Canada went live in Canada today – a big thanks to Tyler Aasness, Aaron Thompson and the entire operations team for their efforts.
Kellogg’s also launched a page on their website that includes sell sheets operators can download. For fun, you can also click on “francias” at the top-right of the screen and see the site in French.
To get them off to a great start, we’re mailing postcards to 4,000 operators who have participated in previous Kellogg’s promotions (English & French versions). We’re also sending eBlasts to all Canadian operators promoting a sweepstakes they can enter by redeeming Kellogg’s reward codes.
Aller le Canada!
