Advertisers Testimonials
The Shops at Kenilworth
A testimonial is simply a recommendation At Smart Shopper Magazine, we don’t believe in penning our own accolades and then putting those
words in our advertisers’ or readers’ mouths. Each quote presented is real. It was either directly written or transcribed in the advertiser’s own words and then personally sealed with his or her own signature.
I wanted to share with you and your team how vital your publication is to The Shops at Kenilworth’s success. We have been working with Smart Shopper for over 20 years and it is a major part of our annual marketing program. The shopping center’s marketing department and many of the retailers rely on Smart Shopper to help drive traffic and sales throughout the year. It is truly the only ad vehicle we use where the merchants are able to track their return on investment. The Smart Shopper brand helps to reinforce our brand perfectly. Not only do my retailers constantly communicate with me the importance of the magazine, our customers also share how much they love the publication and look forward to receiving it in the mail. Director of Marketing, Joan Denenberg
Naturally, we are proud of these recommendations. Feel free to contact any of these retail business leaders directly; perhaps they’ll help you decide to advertise in our next issue of the magazine. We hope so, because we’d be privileged to have your testimonial added to our list of people who say nice things about us. All the best,

LifeBridge Health & Fitness
Tree Pros
We at LifeBridge Health & Fitness chose to work with Smart Shopper several years ago because many of our current members and employees at that time spoke of the publication. LifeBridge Health & Fitness has had great success with Smart Shopper helping to grow our membership base but also helping to increase our other streams of revenue as well.
Smart Shopper Magazine is the only free publication that gets the job done consistently. We have advertised with you for over 4 years now and continue to receive plenty of leads that convert to quality sales. Your publication is attractive and I believe that consumers actually take the time to browse the magazine rather than throwing it in the trash along with so many of the other free magazines that we all get in our mailboxes. The quality product you produce along with the savvy art department and a sales team that really wants to help businesses get the right message out to customers is what makes Smart Shopper Magazine a successful tool for the growth of my business.

Smart Shopper has proven to be a most effective way to reach a targeted group of our customers and incentivize them to visit and purchase from several of our locations. Smart Shopper = RESULTS! VP of Sales and Marketing, Gage Lester
Why do we use Smart Shopper Magazine to promote our business? That’s simple - it works! I can also attest to its shelflife as I regularly see neighbors and others about town carrying it with them. In fact, I regularly use the savings certificates myself!

Smart Shopper Magazine has been the cornerstone of our marketing strategy for more than 22 years for one reason - it absolutely works! We know this because our customers bring in their certificates when they shop and we are never disappointed with the results. In addition to the great response, the staff at Smart Shopper Magazine is knowledgeable and creative. Our ads are well designed and appeal to the upscale customer we are trying to reach.
We have used Smart Shopper Magazine for numerous years to build our service business in Towson. It never fails to bring response each and every time! As a matter of fact, Smart Shopper is one of the few print products remaining in the market that delivers excellent results and a guaranteed return on our advertising investment. We look forward to continuing our relationship for a very long time.

Framer’s Vise After several years of not having a page in Smart Shopper, we started advertising again this past year. We get fantastic customer service from our sales Account Manager. Also, the art department is very accommodating, offering suggestions as well as implementing ours. Being in the Smart Shopper once again, we have been able to reach out to new people who are hopefully, now ,customers who didn’t know where our newer location was and were happy to find us. Advertising in the Smart Shopper has been a very good investment for us. Owner, Amy Schuele
