National Marketing

Pinch A Penny

In Florida, where Pinch A Penny is headquartered, it is a well-known and established brand. However, the franchise’s expansion strategy was focused on Texas, where brand awareness was low. The awareness issue was complicated by the fact that the name doesn’t have the word “pool” in it. We knew that if people didn’t know who Pinch A Penny was or what the company did, it would be nearly impossible to get good leads.

National Marketing

Plato's Closet

Franchisors turn to Curious Jane for our experience working with all three sectors of franchise marketing: national, local and franchise development. Because we work so closely with franchisors, local owners benefit from our expertise, as well. So when Winmark approached us about doing a national denim campaign to benefit franchisees, we were all in.

Franchise Development

Pearle Vision
