“I advertised in Smart Shopper for two years with good results but took it for granted. I tried to save money by pulling out for a couple of issues. The loss in business was very noticeable. By the time I realized this mistake, I had missed a printing and had to wait 8 weeks to get back in. I tried to reproduce the same results with advertising in other publications and mailings, and they were both much more expensive and not nearly as effective!”

“Thank you so much for encouraging us to advertise with Smart Shopper. Most of our business is word-of-mouth, but we love your magazine and thought it might fit with our goals of attracting the best new customers for what we offer. And it worked wonderfully!! We easily recouped our investment with you in just a few weeks, and it brought us valuable and lasting new clients, as well as awareness in-roads to the segment of the local market we were seeking. Thanks again, and keep up the good work!”

“We recently advertised in Smart Shopper after having tried other forms of direct mail that produce little results. We were surprised by the response! We received numerous calls starting the first day the publication was out and they have continued since. They were helpful in the design of the ad and had suggestions on what type of ideas have worked in the past. Ponderosa Heating plans to continue to use Smart Shopper in the future.”
Rob Gassner, Branch Manager - Ponderosa Heating & Cooling |

"We had placed an ad in the Winter edition of Smart Shopper for our landscaping services. Our company was leery of doing so as it was the Winter Edition and potential customers would not need our services for another month or so. As you predicted, "people keep their Smart Shopper" - the weather started to warm up a month and a half later, and we started to receive calls. Thank you...Smart Shopper has increased our business more than we ever imagined!"

"I want to say thank you for the wonderful service Smart Shopper has provided LeBlanc Construction over the years. We've tried many marketing strategies in the past, and few have proven as effective. Smart Shopper's attention to detail and emphasis on quality places it head and shoulders over the competition. After years of experience, it's obvious that Central Oregon as a whole reads and uses Smart Shopper. Furthermore, Smart Shopper portrays its advertisers with class, style and professionalism; and being the best at what we do, this has always been important to us. In this regard Smart Shopper does not fail! Thanks again for your service."

"I was the typical skeptic when I first started advertising in the Smart Shopper. As a new dentist, I was bombarded by numerous ad companies selling the next 'big thing' to get me new patients. I trusted David, as my interactions were always very professional and down-to-earth. I've now been using the Smart Shopper for 4 years, and will continue to do so. It has been the best Return on Investment of any of the advertising I have done to date. It continues to produce great patients for us, and I couldn't be happier with the customer service that David and his team provide. Thanks David!" Dr. Brook Derenzy |
