APPOINTMENT PREFERRED, by David Margolis, President, Syndicated Ad Features


There is a term in television circles known as "appointment TV." This refers to a viewer's commitment to tune in at the same time (every day or week) to watch a favorite TV show that they would not think of missing. If one does not attach such loyalty to a television show, the term can be widened to encompass other forms of entertainment and pursuits. For instance, many people can't wait to read their favorite newspaper columnist or indulge themselves with the weekly special at a local restaurant. In each case, the public is engaged enough with a particular provider that (s)he wouldn't think of missing the next episode, column, or serving. As an advertiser, what wouldn't you give for such a loyal following?

We at Syndicated Ad Features view our role as something of "star makers" as well. Our goal is to make our clients both instantly recognizable and worthy of reader interest and devotion. By taking our clients' images and pairing them with interesting and informational copy that appears weekly in the local newspaper (and Internet), we create an appealing image and attention-grabbing content that most readers find worthy of their time and interest. As people read our columns week after week, they find themselves learning a great deal about many aspects of our advertisers' services and goods. As a result, our clients often hear that the information in their columns motivated readers to schedule an appointment or to simply "drop by".
