My dental office has found this program to be a very effective, efficient and consistent way to advertise and to introduce new patients to my practice. We average 8 to 10 calls per week and are scheduling 5 to 7 appointments per week. This program is far less expensive than any other advertising program we’ve done and has given me incredible results.

I would highly recommend this program as a great way to build a new or existing dental practice.

My first ad ran for three months. I had recovered my ad investment before the end of the first month, and I looked forward to the next few months. This ad has been so successful for me that I have signed for the entire year. By far this has been the most productive marketing for my agency.

I was concerned the response would be similar to the coupon mailers. Wow! What a difference! This is the best form of advertising we’ve done. We receive 2-3 coupons per day spending about $500 each. I like that my business is being seen daily by hundreds of local shoppers. Many new customers didn’t realize I was here even though I’ve been in the same location for 11 years. This program is so powerful that I’ve decided to advertise my other two locations as well. Thank you RTN for helping me grow my business!

Thanks for setting us up with register receipt coupons. We average 5-10 redeemed per day of all the advertising we do, this outperforms them all

I’ve had my hair salon business for 3 years now.  I invested my retirement money here since it seems to be one of the more practical choices given my budget and my knowledge of the business.  Among the challenges, one of the most recurring ones is where to advertise effectively.

Most of the options I have tried had either been ineffective due to low retention or high costs.  It was a struggle to find a long term solution to my advertising woes.  I only had 2 goals in mind – get new customers and get the old ones to keep coming back.

I received a call from a ShopperLocal sales representative and had agreed to meet him to see what he had to offer.  Normally, I don’t respond to telemarketing calls but I was desperate and when he mentioned that he wanted to help me get my name out there, I just had to listen.


Here is what I learned:
  • There is a low-cost solution to distributing flyers and business cards
  • There is a better distribution system that allows me to target my audience.
  • There is a sustainable advertising program for my business.

The best part is that all this comes I one great package – the Register tape Network by ShopperLocal.  Simply put, my ad is distributed through the coupons at the back of the register tapes of a local supermarket.  Through that system, I am able to put my coupons into the hands of ready buyers in the community.  The only hiccup that I have is that I only get 4 times a year to change my offers.  Other than that, I think I have found the perfect solution to my situation.

We have been in the restaurant business for more than 20 years now.  Being the marketing graduate of the family, I am in charge of putting our name out there.  Things have changed a lot since the 80s and 90s.  I remember writing jingles with my dad that would later on be played in the local community radio station.  Everything used to move at a slower pace and looking back, I would’ve done a lot of things differently.


After seeing a couple of episodes of Extreme Couponing, I immediately regretted not getting in the game early.  It looks like the whole nation has caught on and left an old business like ours in the past. 
After some time researching, I’ve found ShopperLocal – a company that sells advertising space on the back of grocery receipts.  Being a skeptic, I checked out our local Harris Teeter’s and browsed through the coupons.  After looking at them closely, I found almost all of the community’s more successful family businesses in the roster.  This was enough testimony to indicate that coupons are indeed a viable advertising option.


So I got in touch with a sales rep and crossed my fingers as I signed up for 6 months.  This was their minimum and I thought that their explanation made a lot of sense – it takes at least 12 weeks to get  a response and once you start getting some, you need some sort of continuity to enjoy the maximum effect. 


At about my 5th month, I was ready to pull the plug after getting just a couple back.  Surprisingly, the last 4 weeks after that month did well.  I have seen both my new customers and old patrons redeem the coupons that were distributed in our local supermarket.  Now, I am at the stage where I am comfortable playing with my offers and just having our name out there.
