I need your help. I'm desperately seeking a purple goldfish. . .

I'm in search of 1001 Examples of Marketing Lagniappe for the book, Marketing Lagniappe In Search of Your Purple Goldfish.

A marketing lagniappe, i.e. purple goldfish, is any time a business goes above and beyond to provide a little something extra to the customer experience.

Here are the basic ingredients of a purple goldfish: Unexpected, Relevant, Unique and Authentic.

4 examples / thought starters:

Southwest Airlines - Grab you bag . . its on. Southwest doesnt charge for bags

TD Bank - TD Bank has a penny arcade in their lobby, a free service to all who want to exchange coins

Five Guys Burgers and Fries - Free peanuts while you wait and extra fries with your order (lots of them)

Stew Leonards - Buy $100 or more of groceries, the register MOOs and you get a free ice cream or coffee


REWARD: For each of the first 1,001 examples of lagniappe I will donate a can of non-perishable food to the Thomas Merton Center. The Merton Center is a soup kitchen in Bridgeport, CT that provides not only provides food, but other programs that help people move out of poverty to become self sufficient.

In addition each Purple Goldfish example will be featured on marketinglagniappe.com and the best examples will be featured in my upcoming book.

2 easy ways to contribute:
