Looks good. I always thought that an advertorial done the right way could be effective, or at least way more effective than a regular ad.

Let us know if you see some bookings from it.

Put it on FB.
Nobody reads the paper anymore.

Put it on FB.
Nobody reads the paper anymore.

People still read the paper. The problem with the paper ads is the Newspaper company still thinks it's worth the same as it was in 1995 before Facebook.

I think local newspapers still reach your local market...local sports...local clubs and churches- but I don't think their Readers generally, are my clients.
Newspapers are the main source for grocery store and restaurant coupons and are reaching but not targeting, the very young families and the old, fixed income folks.
There is still a prestige with being considered the BEST by any print publication.
I also believe a good Advertising strategy has some print in the mix.

We get Sunday papers almost every weekend. Wife get the coupons and discards the rest.

My wife reads online, I buy Mon-Fri for work.

I don't read either.

The last time I did an ad like that I was still getting calls a year later from it. About ten years ago

I still go in quite a few homes with no internet other than a cell phone. I think newspapers still work in smaller communities.

We have a free paper for the coupon shoppers.

That's an awesome write up! Does the newspaper give a link to your website on their online edition? That would be worth the effort for sure.

 

[steve_64]

So how well did the ad light up the phones.

Did you write it, or hire someone?

It doesn't matter.
Bargain shoppers aren't picky.
