About City Publications
- Decades of Proven Experience - As an established brand with over 25 years of experience, we have an extensive track record of proven success. With extensive knowledge of the advertising industry, City Publications has become recognized as experts in client acquisition and lead generation. - We’re Always Innovating - Even though we’ve been in the industry for quite some time, we’re always looking for opportunities to enhance our model and enrich the businesses of our owners. Recent additions to our toolkit include QR code integrations for our owners to track engagement with mail pieces and direct traffic to the websites of their clients. - We Empower Our Owners - Here at City Publications, we have a palpable culture centered around information-sharing and empowering each individual franchise owner to succeed in their specific markets. We are NOT a cookie-cutter franchise family. - We’re here for the long haul! - When the world shut down in 2020, our owners were able to work in-spite of cancelled home shows and networking groups. In fact, most of the typical home show vendors turned to City Publications to reach their audiences who could no longer attend the large networking gatherings. Small businesses also turned to their local City Publications owners to help them reach out to their customer base during lockdowns and restrictions. City Publications has continued to withstand the test of time and national crises like 9/11, the Great Recession, and now, a global pandemic. - We’re Privately Held - The fact that City Publications is privately held is quickly becoming a rarity in the franchising industry. We invite you to learn about our culture, our team, our philosophies, and discover what makes City Publications different!
