The RSVP Story

RSVP Publications is a family-owned and operated company.
Founder Dave Tropf started RSVP Publications in 1984 in his small apartment in San Francisco. RSVP now spans the country with 85 franchises. He and his two sons personally know each and every franchise owner and all owners are treated like family.

RSVP is the original Direct Mail to the Upscale and has dominated offline lead generation for decades. Moving into the future, RSVP is committed to using multiple channels and creating new products to forge future success.

What We Do & How We Do It

In a nutshell… RSVP Publications helps businesses grow and thrive! We are a rewarding and satisfying franchise to be a part of, and we do this by attracting the highest quality potential customers in the local area who enjoy the finer things in life.

How do we attract these high-quality potential customers?

We produce beautiful, unique, full color, glossy postcard packs wrapped in a clear wrapper. Inside, every postcard represents a local business advertising their product or service.

We then research and determine the best houses to mail to in each territory. These homes are the most expensive, most affluent owner-occupied homes in the area. We avoid renters, bank-owned and financially-distressed properties. Our RSVP homeowners enjoy improving their homes and yards and dine out frequently.

Using state-of-the-art technology, we print and mail our luxury card packs to their designated home on a quarterly basis, providing a constant flow of fresh leads for the businesses inside.

RSVP Support

Some of our RSVP franchise owners began with little or no sales experience and no experience running their own company.

Included with this franchise opportunity is a full five days of training to fully learn how to run your business and sell the product easily. Plus, we work with you on a daily basis to help make your RSVP franchise as successful as possible.
