FEATURED PROJECTS
Smartlipo Event Generates $40K in One Day
Acara planned, promoted and executed a Smartlipo event presenting the benefits of laser body sculpting. The event was held at Biologica Institute, a Pasadena based Medical Spa, generating over $40K in sales.
"We are thrilled with the success of our Smartlipo event. Once again, Acara has proven that a Medical Spa can succeed even in our challenging economy."
"The evening was educational and enjoyable. We were able to inform our guests of the benefits of Smartlipo and all of our medical aesthetic services offered at Biologica Institute while they enjoyed refreshments and gifts.''
-- Dr. Robert Tostado
Acara's spa consulting team created a cost effective and efficient promotions program for this event, spending less than $1,500 to promote the evening. A strategic mix of guerrilla marketing methods combined with traditional advertising was implemented to create public awareness -- all just 3 weeks prior to the evening.
