As Carmen's Cupones President Shayne Walters said, “General Mills Promotion Marketing identified Carmen's Cupones y Consejos as a distribution opportunity to Hispanic households for select brand and coupon efforts.
They reached out to us for ideas and understanding of Carmen's Cupones y Consejos and decided to use us for their efforts.”
Walter's describes the mailing as “a 12 page promotional booklet mailed to the Carmen's database under the Carmen's brand name, on behalf of General Mills. It is not placed in our envelope, but is a separate mailing.”
