ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Dec. 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Valpak, a leader in local print and digital coupons, announced today it is looking to further grow the brand in Huntsville, Ala. Digital coupon use is on the rise, with more than 25 million Americans using couponing apps each month and ample gains projected for the remainder of 2015 and 2016. With this growing dependency on technology, Valpak is continuing to capitalize on the trend by widening its suite of digital products and is currently seeking entrepreneurs to invest in new franchise territories in the Huntsville market.
The company expanded its footprint in the Alabama market earlier this year when Daniel and Ann Gallegly acquired the Central Alabama territory. The signature blue envelope now mails to nearly 130,000 households in Birmingham, Jefferson and Shelby counties. Valpak's digital offerings have been a big draw for new franchisees – a major selling point for the Gallegly husband and wife team.
"Ann and I are thrilled to be part of the Valpak family," said Daniel Gallegly, Valpak of Central Alabama franchisee. "The brand was an obvious choice for our next business venture, based on the extensive support we receive from the network and the corporate office. Valpak also has a proven and successful business model."
On the heels of the Gallegly's success in the Central Alabama region, Valpak is now targeting the state for additional expansion, starting with Huntsville.
"Alabama is a hot spot for us right now, as we near the end of 2015 and gear up for aggressive expansion in the coming months," said Greg Courchane, Valpak's director of franchise sales. "The Gallegly's success in their market further solidifies the demand for marketing partners in the state and we look forward to bringing new franchisees on board to bring business and residents great ways to save through Valpak."
A leader in cooperative direct mail, Valpak mails coupons to nearly 40 million demographically targeted households per month in more than 100 markets in 45 states and four Canadian provinces. Today, in addition to its flagship Blue Envelope, Valpak offers its business customers an impressive portfolio of digital advertising products including Smartphone apps, which are also integrated into the Samsung Wallet, Apple Passbook, Google Wallet and online coupons to reach consumers at home, and on-the-go.
Ideal candidates for Valpak franchise ownership should possess a desire to join a trusted, industry-leading brand, work within a proven franchise system, develop relationships with local businesses and have a comfort level with selling new, digital technologies. Franchisees should also possess a minimum liquidity of $75,000, and a minimum net worth of $150,000.
