Welcome Wagon-It's Back and making it big!

Hello, my name is Jackie Hunt and I am the Community Marketing Executive with Welcome Wagon, serving Pikesville Area. 

Many of you may remember the name Welcome Wagon recalling women going door to door delivering baskets of goodies from local businesses to new members of the community.  Well, moving forward with the times, Welcome Wagon no longer delivers baskets, but rather gift books packed full of offers from exclusive businesses in the community.  


Local businesses who are included become the exclusive partner in their category, meaning if "ABC Dentistry" decided to join the gift book, then no other Dentist could participate.  This exclusivity component brings value to each business participating.  

Each month these gift books are mailed out to new homeowners in the area welcoming them to their new community.  Each book is packed full of exclusive offers, a community phone directory and a place to store important numbers, creating a desk reference for the new homeowner.  They also receive follow-up postcards from each business with an offer and an "Especially for You" mailing.

DID YOU KNOW:  New homeowners spend 22% more their first year of owning a home.

When businesses participate get an EXCLUSIVE Recommendation To The Number Of New Families Moving Into that Book Area, Two Full Page Ads, Welcome Offer, Welcome Wagon Does The 30-day Follow-up, Welcome Wagon Does the 90-day Follow-up, All Printing/Postage/Mailing, Website Listing, Link To YOUR WebsiteThe Names and Addresses of the Families Moving Into Your Book Area.

These gift books are mailed out to new homeowners in an area each month reaching thousands of new homeowner annually.

Currently we are still accepting partners for the Pikesville Area and invite you to join us in welcoming new homeowners to our community.
  
DID YOU KNOW: New homeowners are typically 2 income families with children?
