One
of the primary advantages of advertising in a local newspaper is that both paid
and free circulating papers reach the majority of homes in their communities. People
who read these papers are the potential customers, clients, and patients that
local advertisers want. Weekly newspapers, in particular, get read because
people want to know what is going on around their home towns. Aside from
learning what events are taking place and how public affairs may impact them,
they also want to know what local stores, businesses, and service providers are
offering.
Not
only do local newspapers have excellent penetration, they have both permanence
and desired obsolescence. A newspaper will remain in the home, where it is
referenced, read and reread, and clipped, until the next issue comes and the
old paper is discarded. Instead of a fleeting TV image, a newspaper becomes a
fixture in the home that encourages the habit to read.
On
top of that, newspapers offer our clients flexible rates and sizing, as well as
preferred placement possibilities. All these advantages add up to an
advertising medium that is hard to beat.
