National Advertising

National advertising builds latent awareness that makes your local advertising more effective. It also gives you credibility when you show your ads to customers, helping you to close more sales at higher margins. National advertising tells customers you are part of the Exciting Windows! National Network with exceptional buying power and unbeatable guarantees that are honored by any Exciting Windows! Member in the nation, and the world.

Michael Payne - Exciting Windows! Members accelerate awareness at home shows, events, and direct advertising by featuring Michael Payne, HGTV celebrity designer and star of "Designing for the Sexes". Michael Payne's endorsement helps every member get the word out and build their business more quickly.

$10,000 Michael Payne Exciting Windows! Makeover Sweepstakes has vaulted past all expectations with thousands of entries and leads for Exciting Windows! Members. Innovative marketing keeps you ahead of independent and chain store competitors so your business grows more rapidly with lower marketing investment.

"Veranda" Magazine - your national magazine of choice for 2008 helps you build awareness and credibility when presented to customers in your presentation portfolio. According to sales consultant reports, more Exciting Windows! customers read Veranda than any other home decorating publication. Your independent competitors don't have national advertising to build customer confidence. Result: you benefit by higher closing rates and fewer discounts. That means more money for you.

Internet advertising - Search Engine Optimization and Pay per Click, along with video clips on YouTube and listings on Facebook and MySpace are emerging as leading forms of marketing communication that did not exist five years ago. Exciting Windows! leadership is assured with investments far beyond what any single business could afford. Result: your awareness and sales grow more rapidly as you tie in to this modern marketing marvel.
