Welcome Wagon ~ its back! But with a Gift Book

Hello, my name is Janet Renner and I am the Community Marketing Executive with Welcome Wagon, serving Northern Virginia. 

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.  

How it works is that 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.  

When you participate you get 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 monthly reaching thousands of new homeowner annually.

Currently we are still accepting partners for the Woodbridge Areas and invite you to become a Community Partner.  Did you know that new homeowners are typically 2 income families with children?

If you would like to partner with me and Welcome Wagon in welcoming new homeowners to our community, please let me.  Looking forward to talking with you.
