angelqq, where is your pushcart located at? maybe we can see what is the case.
Mine is at level 2 . quite a prime area.

I am not sure if pushcarts have the same priviledge as shops in ViVo in terms of having access to some of the more prominent advertising space there ? (eg say a poster near the escalator). Are there possibilities that these posters costs are shared by a number of pushcart owners. Not if is these types of 'visual marketing' will help the situation, rather than waiting for shoppers to 'walk by'.

Yes, I believe that's the main reason, especially in vivo where by the crowd belong to those that are easily affected by the economy esp, young adults, young parent with kids...For me those big brands put me off in the current situation i rather shop elsewhere more pocket friendly. We usually go there for food than shopping.

But still, if your product is unique, or catch the vivo's crowd, still can be done


kambatae!

Maybe all the Vivo pushcart vendors can do a joint promo? Put resources together and print leaflets for distribution to shoppers. Can be A4 or DL size with 1 fold, divide the space into small little discount coupons, 1 coupon feature 1 promo from each vendor.

Or Lucky Dip? Each vendor sponsors a gift for the lucjy dip pool. When shoppers spend a certain amt., e.g $80 combined purchase from different vendor, they get a chance at the Lucky Dip.

Here's another inexpensive marketing idea vendors at Vivo can try. Get a video cam and do a short clip on each of the pushcart vendor. Get a shot of the pushcart, the vendor say something interesting about their products. Key idea is to make the clip funny and interesting. Which I believe is what pushcart vendors at Vivo are all about.... young entrepreneurs following their dreams

Then what do you do with the video clip? hehehehe UPLOAD onto YouTube! And see it viewed and get forwarded to everybody!

Oh yah, if you guys are planning to target the Xmas crowd, get the vendors to sing Xmas songs. That would be sooooooo cute
