inside chicago™ is amazing! I see about 3 - 4 returns a week and I am only one of 15 associates who work the floor. The customers who bring in their inside chicago™ ads usually make the bigger purchase of $1500 AND become repeat customers. People definitely pay attention to the offers in this campaign.

Lori Bohner Lightology

We have advertised in a number of media publications and have tried other direct mail pieces, but have generated the most business with your product. We have a very upscale, professional clientele and I originally had my doubts whether “coupons” would work for us. I was afraid they looked cheap. Our first mailing nearly ten years ago brought in 200 new clients and my doubts were dispelled. Everyone is interested in a good deal, and if a coupon is presented in a classy way, it can work.

Peter B. Rubnitz Urban Oasis

We have had a very positive experience with your mailings. Your list is reaching our target market and we’re getting a great rate of return from high quality customers… We’re experiencing a 3.5% return—over 700 responses!

Bill Bronner Saloon Steakhouse

The response has been phenomenal! We have received over 200 responses and our phones are still ringing. The clientele is exactly the type we were hoping for and the additional word-of-mouth advertising created by inside chicago™ is icing on the cake. I highly recommend Windy City Marketing’s inside chicago™ to any business interested in increasing traffic and profits.

Diana Grassfield Skin Deep Medical Spa

inside chicago™ has proven to be our #1 source of print advertising referrals. In 2009, we experienced over $175,000 in new revenue from our ad. I attribute my results to the constant awareness, exclusivity and new business that an annual campaign in inside chicago™ provides. We have never missed an issue in over 5 years. Because of the success we are with having this program, we have been able to cut back on other more expensive, less-effective forms of advertising. I highly recommend inside chicago™, it is a great return on investment!

Mladen Kralj, DMD Ora Dental Studio

At first we were apprehensive about using motivational advertising, even though we liked the way inside chicago™ looked. We were spending most of our advertising budget on PR. We are so happy we finally tried it!

We’re now into our second year … we love your product! inside chicago™ brings us so many new customers. One Tuesday night we actually got in 35 certificates. On a Tuesday! We think you’re great!
