Phil Roberts Associates Accounting

“I want you to know how pleased I am with your program. I have been with Our Town for almost 4 years now and I just want to say you’ve made a believer out of me!! The benefits of welcoming new families in this affordable and effective format have been refreshing. I love the trackability, the image the package and certificate gives my business, and most of all, the returning customers. We will begin our fourth year with you and look forward to many more in the future. I recommend Our Town to any and all businesses.”

— Phil Roberts, Owner

Noah’s Ark Animal Hospital

“On a weekly basis, new clients come through our clinic door from Our Town only to leave satisfied and promising to return. Our Town continues to be one of the most affordable means to connect with new families in our area. Thank you for the opportunity to work with you. You have been instrumental in the success of Noah’s Ark Animal Hospital, and we look forward to many more years of association.”

— Tina Stephanz, Office Manager

Holsum Bakery, Inc.

“Our Town targets the consumers we want and give us the opportunity to impress new customers and grow sales. The redemption rates have been better than that of traditional couponing while the cost is less. Thanks again for your service and your product.”

— Craig Coffey, Marketing Manager

Red Carpet Car Wash

“Our Firm has been using Our Town for nearly 2 years and they have certainly been effective in sending lots of newcomers to us. We average around 125 gift certificates per month and have had as many as 208 in a single month to use our car wash. We plan to continue using Our Town to expose newcomers in our area to our business.”

— H.C. Blakewell, Owner

Rosenbaum Chiropractic

“We are new to the program having only started in July 2001. While I was made aware that it could take several months to see returns, I have already had amazing results. In two months, we have added several new patients to our practice. The program has easily paid for itself and then some in just eight weeks. I believe Our Town is a great way to add new growth to any Chiropractic services.”

— Dr. Rob Rosenbaum, Owner

Village Cleaners

“Village Cleaners has used Our Town over three years to welcome newcomers to our area. We have tried many forms of advertising in our 25 years of business. Our Town has, by far, out performed all others in gaining new customers and repeat business. Our coupon to newcomers is professional and appealing. We have recommended Our Town to fellow business owners and will continue to do so with the hope they will have the same successful and pleasurable experience.”

— Gayle Goodyear, Owner

Don Carter’s Bowling Center

“Through your organization we are not only able to get new area residents in the door to try us out, but are seeing the newcomers returning with their families and friends. Having tried similar advertisers, I see Our Town’s list and data are more up-to-date and accurate, plus the appealing and attractive layout and packaging places you heads above the competition.”

— Jeff Menges, Marketing Director

Chick Fil A of The Colony

“The Our Town promotion has been by far the best I’ve ever done! The redemption rate has been incredible. It has been a great way to reach the new families who have just moved into our community. Thank you!”

— John Maroney, Owner

Roy Pope Grocery

“Since we started using Our Town about a year ago, our Sales have increased 17% and our customer count is up by about 100 more customers each week. I feel Our Town had a lot to do with this growth. My calculations show that our actual cost for the Our Town program is only $3 per new customer. Not bad considering an average customer will spend over $3000 per year with us!”

— Bob Larance, Owner

Aledo True Value Hardware

“Thank you for introducing our store to the Our Town form of advertising. We have now been using this for about a year and find it very effective. There has not been a month that we have not had several certificates brought into the store. We are averaging 20% to 40% response each month. This is a better response than any other form of advertising we have tried. The majority of these responses have become repeat customers and they have all been very appreciative of the coupons they have received.

Our Town has been so effective; we are going to expand into another zip code area. I would recommend any retail business give Our Town at least a trial run. It is a low cost, high return form of advertising with no time required by our staff to put it together. Thank you again for providing this service to our business.”

— Ruth and Jack Caudill, Owners

The Nail Garden

“I have become very cautious when it comes to spending advertising dollars because of past poor results. But I now believe in advertising to new movers, at least with Our Town because they have a proven incredible system with true value in an upscale package. We send Thank You notes to all the new movers who respond to our certificate and are retaining many new clients. It´s interesting to listen to the comments of the new movers — they are so appreciative of our gift and the Our Town package all together. I would recommend this reputable company and program to anyone who believes in building and retaining new customers!”

— Peggy Johnson, Owner

Shannon Fine Jewelry & Watches

“It is my pleasure to report that I have had a tremendous response to your mailings. I can tell you that I have taken more dollars in profit that the cost of my contract and on top of that, I get new customers and referrals from them! A winning situation.

I encourage any business owner to do this. With the category exclusivity plus the volume of mailings it is impossible to go wrong. My Our Town reps have been professional and courteous. Thanks again.”

— John Wren, Owner

Lawn Creations

“I am writing to inform you how very much Our Town has helped my business grow continuously for two years in a row non-stop! You don´t know how many different ways we have tried to advertise our chemical lawn care company. I know one thing-I lost count! Thank you so much for taking the time with me and showing me all the great marketing techniques of Our Town — ESPECIALLY THE MAGNETS!”

— Edmund Tucker, Owner

Southlake Family Eyecare

“We have had the pleasure of using Our Town for over three years now. It has worked wonderfully! After the first 6 months, we began seeing consistent repeat customers. We give away one free eye exam per family and it has worked very well. Probably 70% of the time they buy contacts or glasses and bring in their family too! This has been our best and most successful way of building our practice. I think any business can grow with Our Town.”

— Michelle Mullican, Office Manager

Greener’s Auto Center

“For over 2 years now we’ve advertised with Our Town and considered it the best thing we have ever done. As a matter of fact, we have dropped all other forms of advertising all together.”

— David Greener, Jr., Vice President

Armor Pest Control

“I spend 15% of my revenues on Advertising and get a higher Return on Investment with Our Town than with any other program. We currently get about 20 calls per month from Our Town and have a conversion ratio of about 40% on our Free Pest Control Treatment offer. This is great since we only need about 1-2 annual contracts to pay for the Our Town service. One of the exciting benefits is the long-term exposure we receive with this program. Those customers who do not sign up for pest control right away have been introduced to our company, and have our magnet on their fridge and we feel they will call us for future pest services. The Our Town program took a few months to see results but with patience and persistence it will pay off. We will certainly continue to participate and highly recommend it to other businesses considering Our Town.”

— Dennis Brooks, Owner

PakMail Centers of America

“I thought I’d drop you a quick note to let you know with the success of the advertising we’ve done with Our Town. Although we have only been participating a few months, we have already seen better measurable results than with most of our other advertising. Not only are the people happy with the free gift, they are happy to hear about our other great services and typically make additional purchases on their initial visit. We are well on our way to making these people regular customers and there’s no telling how many people they are telling about PakMail! I would definitely recommend this program to other businesses that are looking to gain new customer or expand their name recognition. I am very pleased. Thanks for all your help.”

— Jason A. Clark, Owner

Double Dave’s Pizzaworks

“Reponses from your New Resident mailings has been phenomenal! Based on our system reports regarding order frequency, the customers we earn from your program are some of our best! Our sales are up. Our ticket averages are up. I am impressed! Thanks again for providing such a great tool for business growth!”
