Successful Advertising with Valpak

 
When Michael Bacon, owner/operator of BrewBurgers, first looked into direct mail advertising, Valpak jumped out as a national brand that people recognized. He was still unsure of how the response would be, even if he liked the idea of doing coupon advertising. In the years since, he's come to find a lot to like about Valpak, including his sales rep, who stops in monthly to check on him and to ensure his ads look right. Each month he mails in Valpak, Michael sees customers come in immediately, like the next day, so he knows it works. He credits the quality of his print piece and Valpak's demographic targeting with bringing in the people that want to eat at BrewBurgers. Michael would absolutely recommend Valpak to other businesses, especially in the off-season when it's challenging to bring in new customers.
