Our Mission
Our two-fold mission has remained the same for over 48 years:

2. To help local business sponsors reach a new audience of new movers every month, resulting in new loyal and long-term customers every month.

Our Story
Hello. My name is Michael Plummer, the founder of Our Town America.

It was in 1972, while running a retail business, that I discovered the power of welcoming my new neighbors. It, as all of the other media I attempted, had its flaws. However, it didn’t take long for me to realize the unparalleled, long-term benefit of reaching out to people while they were in the midst of adjusting to their new surroundings.

I did this by inviting them in with a genuine, one time gift. The results were simple to measure: they tried my food. From that point on I continued to see many of the same faces return time after time — with no need for further advertising. Just good food and great service kept them coming back. The math was easy. My investment of less than a dollar resulted in bringing in a family worth hundreds of dollars every year.

Over 48 years later, businesses still struggle to find new customers. And there are a lot more ways to reach people. Our simple, yet powerful, concept of Inviting New Movers into a business still works more effectively than all of the others. Getting people in your doors to experience what you have to offer is still all that matters. Our Town America does that by reaching your most likely future customers — your new neighbors.

The only thing that has changed since 1972 is our distribution process. We’ve grown from welcoming a few hundred new families each month, to introducing over 6 million people per year to local businesses. Despite the necessary changes and innovation to keep up with our fast-paced growth, we maintain the highest integrity and quality in all aspects of our program.

We are currently targeting new franchisee partners in the following North Carolina markets:

1. The Triad (Greensboro, Winston Salem and High Point) and nearby surrounding small towns
2. Fayetteville and nearby surrounding small towns
3. Eastern North Carolina (Greenville, Rocky Mount, Wilson, Goldsboro, New Bern, Elizabeth City, Havelock, Morehead City) as well as all the islands east (Emerald Isle, Atlantic Beach and the Outer Banks)
