I signed a contract with Welcome wagon in May last year. One year later I've not had one new client from this form of advertising ( spent over $2,000) you have to sign a one year contract. I had to close in march due to Covid 19. I called the company all they would offer was a deferral of my payments for 2 months so I still owe them the remainder of the contract. Biggest waste of advertising money I've every spent. So don't waste yours. This ancient company needs to close their doors for good. There are much better ways to spend your hard earned $, google, Yelp, Instagram etc. I could have spent the same amount of money with Yelp and tripled my business. Thank goodness my contract is almost over, money spent for nothing, every time I see the debit on my bank account I cringe. read more

Its few and far between I write reviews since it requires me to use technology. I started my pressure washing business about 4 years ago, and last year it took a hit due to hurricane Irma and the abundance of new competition. I turned to Welcome Wagon to advertise my business on social media. A good idea considering I hardly know how to operate my iPhone. It skyrocketed my business and put my company out there in front of all the new competition. Hurricanes are extremely unfortunate, but I took the chance with Welcome Wagon to not only help my business in a competitive time but for my family's overall well-being. It's a great day for my business and family, our new custom shirts arrived, and business is still booming. read more

We signed up with Welcome Wagon in August 2016 with the promise that our information would be sent out to 293 families. We have not received ONE call since August, and we have spend extra money sending postcards out each month to these families. We contacted the woman who signed us up to cancel and she refused. We were told that we could cancel our agreement at anytime if we were not happy, yet here we are struggling to cancel it. I would NEVER recommend this business. Upon further research, it seems we completely got scammed into signing up for their advertising as other businesses and even consumers have had problems with them. Completely disappointed in this company for taking advantage of start up companies. read more

*EDITED 2/2/22 After speaking with Eric, the VP Of operations and technology. Our issues were resolved with outcomes still dependent on those changes. I will say to read the contact very carefully before signing and be sure to ask your contact agent about ROI and what will be done to ensure your business sees results. As for the rude customer service I experienced from Lina Farley, Director of Customer Service - I was told that would be handled internally and I do hope so, as no business should be spoken to in that way. As I was extremely disappointed, dissatisfied, and outraged with her customer service, I am optimistic about moving forward with this company thanks to Eric. read more

Avoid this advertising company like the plague!!!! I own wellness centers in nj and tried their year trial. It didnt work at all and then they auto renew me into another year after i called and canceled. They never canceled my account. Still now 2 years later i am still having trouble cancelling. Also no follow up at all. These auto renew cancelation policies have been shown to be unlawful. Retro fitness and work out world just lost huge class action lawsuits for a 60 day cancelation notice. I am going to be talking to my attorney who just won against retro to look into doing a class action against welcome wagon. Best look into more reputable companies for advertising . read more

Welcome Wagon has helped me reach out to new clients on a monthly basis, by sending a Beautiful gift book to new homeowners as they moved in. Since I am relatively new to the area myself and this has been a wonderful experience to have clients also reach out to me, having received my ads and coupons. I knew of welcome wagon when I was new to a neighborhood, in 1974. I seized, the chance to say hello to new homeowners via old fashioned beautiful stock print. I would recommend Welcome Wagon to any business who wants to reach those valuable new clients moving into an area. Diana Cox EmpoweringPeopleFinancially.com read more

I love Welcome Wagon, since I began with the advertising I have seen positive results with the influx of new clients, that in itself more than pays for my monthly cost. I am new to Welcome Wagon as an advertiser but not new to the value of their relationship with me. I first learned of Welcome Wagon in 1974 when we moved to a new area and they came to welcome us. I was so delighted with the fact the local businesses offered their discounts and we used them even after we moved from the local area. Thank you, Diana Cox EmpoweringPeopleFinancially.com read more

Feelings of disappointment are similar to others giving their feedback. We feel ripped off also. Promises were made and high expectations were set. Since we signed up with Welcome wagon, there has not been a single call. We asked to cancel the contract and they refuse to. We are planning on complaining to BBB and possibly shutting them down for false advertising. Strong advice to companies to not advertise with Welcome Wagon. If you really are interested, try to either sign a 3 month trial or pay only once you get sales. read more

Great service-- from my local rep to main headquarters. Very responsive (even during the COVID closures) to any and all questions. I received a very targeted list of new movers, with only a very small percentage of cards being returned (2%). The follow up list allowed us to continue contact as promised! Exactly what we needed as a new business looking to get our name out to potential new customers! read more
