Your event should cater to that customer profile specifically. For your event to be a success you should appeal directly to your customers so that it is appealing to them. For example, if you sell sporting goods, do a sporting event of some sorts. If you sell magazines, do a book drive or a book signing event at your store. You must ALWAYS target your event to the profile of your customers.
Second, your event marketing campaign should also have some value to those attending. Make sure there is a good reason for them to attend other than just hearing about your products or services. They are not going to attend it just to hear a 15 minute commercial.
