As you know if you’ve read this blog for very long, I’m not overly generous when it comes to praising the ARRL. I do have to give them some kudos for this latest promotion, however. A couple of weeks ago, I got the above postcard in the mail offering me a $10 discount on any purchase from the ARRL website. Today, being my birthday, I got a followup e-mail, reminding to take advantage of this offer.
I like this effort a lot. It does show some member appreciation, and it will make some purchase more affordable. Kudos to the ARRL!

Well happy belated birthday! I also received a $10 birthday discount this month and ended up spending about $28 after the discount. That is about $28 more than I would have spent in the ARRL store otherwise, so the campaign worked on me.

I want to first wish you a Happy Birthday as well and I very much enjoy reading your blog!! As for the ARRL I am a member and it’s nice to see a company understand about customer service…the ARRL has nailed it with this plan. I just don’t understand why companies don’t get it that customer service is what grows your biz.
