Sample e-mail to send to local business owners:
"Hello,
I am reaching out to some of my FAVORITE local businesses because I have a great opportunity to promote your business at no cost to you! 
I am a local real estate agent, last year I sold over 15 homes and have over 1,000 people in my database of past clients and friends. I am launching a VIP program to my past clients and I wanted to see if you would like to join. The best part is, it's FREE to you! 
Basically, my clients will be given a VIP card & will download the App. It will be loaded with discounts from local businesses in our community.
Each business can determine a special or discount they would like to offer to their customers. Example: Papa John's offers a 25% off discount, Enterprise up to 30% off, Sherwin Williams 20%, etc.
This is a great way to promote local businesses! 
If interested, all I would need from you is your company logo & discount offered! 
You can email or call me with any questions!
I look forward to working with you!"
