Coupons are still one of the most effective tools to attract customers away from brands and retailers to which they are loyal, according to a report from Valassis.

Furthermore, coupons are just as influential among average consumers as they are among brand loyalists:

  • Coupons would lead 82% of all consumers to purchase a product from a brand they would not otherwise, compared to 78% of brand loyalists
  • 85% of all consumers would purchase a new product because of a coupon, compared to 84% of brand loyalists....
