Welcome Pardner Celebrates success

-

AMARILLO – Being a small business owner takes grit and nerves of steel, especially when you are buying into a business in a year when business bankruptcy filings soared more than 42%, according to an article in a November 1981 issue of The New York Times.

Earlier that year, on March 15, DJ Stubben wrote a check that made her a partner in a little newcomer service called Welcome Pardner. Within a year, she purchased full ownership.

Forty-two years later, Stubben is amazed at how Welcome Pardner’s direct mail programs continue to grow and succeed by adding digital and networking services. The greeting service has grown to serve the top 26 counties of the Texas panhandle with direct mailings focused on target markets, reaching approximat­ely 6,000 different audiences:
