  12. Advertising South Beach determined: • USP: 3-in-1 is very unique but hard for Top Dog to convey this to customers. • Club features not clearly stated and should be improved upon within ads. • Stick to what works: gorilla marketing and mailers. • Don’t forget about those underagers! • Keep track of ads: what’s working? what’s not?
