We are proud to say 28 years!!!! The Grapevine is locally owned and operated. Created by Beverly Schmidt in 1982, The Grapevine was the first local direct mail coupon book in Contra Costa County and the Tri-Valley area.

We have a great introductory offer for less than 1 1/2 cents per home. The average cost is 3 cents per home!

We don't! Unlike a lot of other direct mail coupon books, The Grapevine blankets all homes in your selected mailing area with the exception of Rossmoor.

Yes, we offer exclusives. You have the opportunity to lock in your type of business and not have competing businesses advertise in the same book.

Yes, and this service is FREE when you advertise in The Grapevine and link your website with the Grapevine website!!

We design all ads working closely with you. First, we talk with you and learn about your business. After that, we work on your ad and present you with our ideas for your approval or fine tuning.

No, the coupon books arrive in mailboxes with the address imprinted on the back cover. When homeowners receive the books, they recognize The Grapevine as being a great product and can quickly see the participating businesses and the great offers.

Since our goal is to get you the best return on your ad, we use top graphic designers with whom we work side by side to get your message across.

The Grapevine is an upscale book of coupons. We will not sacrifice quality for costs. By using only the best local businesses to design, print and mail The Grapevine, we are able to oversee all phases of production to assure the service that you have been promised is delivered.

We are able to give an estimate on an individual basis as to what you might expect to see. What we can tell you for sure is that we still have many of the same clients advertising with us who started in The Grapevine 28 years ago. This alone speaks for customer satisfaction.

A survey of a wide range of clients showed that the return from The Grapevine far exceeds any other coupon book. If fact, one of our regular clients, the Clip Joint, compared The Grapevine to another coupon mailer and reported The Grapevine far exceeded the other company by a return rate of 5 to 1!

We are so confident that you will become a repeat customer that we are offering an introductory rate!

We take our commitment to our clients very seriously. Our goal is to build ongoing relationships with businesses that last years. The best way to accomplish this is to help you design an ad that can be easily understood and perceived as a great value, publish a quality coupon book and deliver the service that we have promised.

Read our testimonials or simply phone and ask our clients. Most of our clients tell us The Grapevine is their best form of advertising. We receive calls from many of our clients complimenting us on the nice job we do and thanking us for helping to build their businesses!
