Why the mailbox still works

Why advertise in a coupon magazine?

TL;DR

ShopSmart Magazine and MoneySaver Direct Magazine are shared-mail coupon magazines mailed 100% through USPS to nearly 1.5 million Indiana households a month, with delivery backed by postal receipts. Advertisers choose county zones, get their ad designed as part of the price, and track results through coupons, call tracking and QR codes.

It arrives, and we can prove it

Every copy goes out 100% through the United States Postal Service. Delivery is guaranteed, with postal receipts to back it up.

It stays in the house

Each issue is full of dining, automotive, entertainment and home improvement offers, and it has a long shelf life: it stays in the house until the next issue arrives.

You can count what it brings

Coupon redemptions, a trackable phone number, QR code scans and visits to your site and social pages all show what the ad did.

The ad is designed for you

Our designers build it, and design and consultation are included in the ad price. Change it month to month as your offers change.
