R.S.V.P. Charged me $2000.00 for a mass mail campaign that was supposedly to be delivered to 40,000 homes. I recieved only four phone calls for a supposed outreach of 40,000 homes.
Our company figured a worse case scenario of a 1/2 of one percent. This would mean 200 return phone calls. I know I cannot hold against them the fact that I did not get any business. However, how is it possible to get any return with this amount of phone calls. They don't have any proof that 40,000 of my postcards went in the mail. I do not believe they reach the amount of homes they say they do. These statistics speak for themselves. I refered a fellow business owner to the offer I got in the mail from R.S.V.P., and it sounded like a good idea to him as well.
After my experience I decided to call him to see how the campaign did for his business. He received the SAME Results. I feel terrible for even showing him the advertisement. I am urging him to post his experience on here as well. After filling out R.S.V. P's "How did we do?" customer questionare card, they sent me a $50.00 gift certificate to The Melting Pot for a fondue only. This is a pretty expensive fondue, that I probably wont get aaround to eating. Save your money instead of throwing in the garbage with R.S.V.P.
