MarketNet Launches Turnkey Direct Marketing Program for Konica Minolta Dealers

SPRING LAKE, Mich. — October 2003 — MarketNet Services, LLC, a marketing technology and services firm, has launched a turnkey, direct marketing program — the “Campaign Builder” — for Konica Minolta Business Solutions, U.S.A., Inc.’s (Konica Minolta) authorized dealers. Fully funded through the dealers’ Konica Minolta co-op accounts, each dealer can sign-up online and create a co-branded direct mail piece that is printed and mailed. The “Campaign Builder” program also includes custom prospect list development and optional follow-up telemarketing.

“The Campaign Builder program provides us with an excellent tool to offer to our dealers to assist them with their local brand-building efforts,” said William H. Brewster, Jr., vice president, marketing, Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. “Konica Minolta has creative control over the direct mail piece, including the products that can be promoted for each campaign. Dealers like the program because they can insert their logo and custom promotional text, instantly associating their brand with ours, lending credibility and national name-brand recognition to their dealership.”

“Many of our clients have co-op funds for dealers that are used for local programs that only partially satisfy their marketing needs,” said J.T. McDonald, president, MarketNet Services, LLC. “This kind of program provides more control for the client, with a proven outlet for co-op fund use. It also gives the local dealer a tool that promotes their brand and generates inquiries,” he added.

The Konica Minolta Campaign Builder is scheduled to run quarterly, starting in Q4 2003.
