Hi,

I got an idea, when I was paging through our local paper. They always have an area where people can submit recipes :) each week to be posted and I want to send information to them about PC and hosting a show. Obviously, they love to cook and thought it was a great wait to see about generating business.

Does anyone have a flyer they use for something like this or have any suggestions for me?

Thanks!
 
Maybe you can submit one of your favorite PC recipes to the paper and at the bottom of the recipe state that if anyone is interested in knowing more about pampered chef recipes and products to call you at xxx-xxxx. If its free to submit the recipe might as well go for it!
 
I thinkYou would have to include all of the copyright information and give PC and the specific cookbook credit.

What types of advertisements should I place in my local paper to generate business?

The types of advertisements that are most effective for generating business through local papers include display ads, classified ads, and inserts. Display ads are larger, eye-catching ads that can include images and detailed information about your business. Classified ads are smaller, text-only ads that are typically less expensive and can be targeted to specific sections of the paper, such as the "Services" section. Inserts are flyers or brochures that are placed inside the paper and can be an effective way to reach a larger audience.

How often should I advertise in my local paper to see results?

The frequency of your advertisements in the local paper will depend on your budget and the specific needs of your business. To see consistent results, it is recommended to advertise at least once a week. However, if you have a limited budget, you can also consider running ads on a bi-weekly or monthly basis.

Are there any specific sections or days in the paper that are better for advertising?

It is important to consider your target audience when choosing the section and day to advertise in the local paper. For example, if you are a food-related business, it may be more effective to advertise in the food or lifestyle section of the paper. Additionally, weekends and mid-week tend to have higher circulation and readership, making them ideal days to advertise.

You can also consider offering a special promotion or discount to entice readers to take action. Additionally, make sure your contact information and call-to-action are clear and easy to find.

Are there any other ways to generate business through local papers besides traditional advertisements?
