About Us
Our Story
We are a company dedicated to one purpose: helping your business find new customers. We’d like to think we’re pretty good at it too!
Let’s be honest with ourselves for a moment… Despite all the new fancy-schmancy technology, finding customers in your own backyard isn’t getting any easier. Every day, your customers are bombarded with thousands of competing messages. They don’t use those yellow books any more and most of their mail goes straight to the trash. Online, things aren’t much better! With millions of websites vying for their attention, how is your marketing supposed to cut through the clutter?
We say: Keep It Simple Stupid! (Say, who are you calling stupid?) The reason most of the old methods have stopped working is really quite simple: there are no eyeballs involved! Think about it. When was the last time you looked through the good ole’ yellow pages? How many junk mail envelopes have you opened recently? Most people are ignoring the old media. That’s why ValuPump invented “Coupon Advertising at the Gas Pump”.
You know the drill. You’re standing there, staring off into the distance, with the smell of gasoline fumes drifting by. If only you had something more interesting to look at! ValuPump customers do. Each ValuPump Coupon Dispenser is filled with great offers from local businesses…like YOURS… and EVERYONE loves a good deal!
