..to post this. Forgive me if it's not. My local classified paper has a business directory/advertising section. I can get 4 issues of advertising for just $8. The only thing -- The maximum wording is 6 WORDS! Well, aside from the Business Name and Phone Number. I have a few questions.

1) There are categories I can pick from. The ones that make sense to me are: Business Opportunities, Recreation, Employment Opportunities, Groceries, Miscellaneous, Health & Fitness. I know some of those might be far-stretched, but which do I pick to put my ad under?

2) Do I advertise the business opportunity or the hosting opportunity?

3) Do you have any suggestions on the 6 words I can use? LOL I know, 6 words is REALLY limited. An example that is in the paper already:

LAWN CARE SPECIALIST & HANDYMAN
BEN'S LAWN CARE & HAULING SERVICE

Free Estimates, Residential, Commercial, Also Painting (123) 456-7890

Thank you for all of your help.. This is something I could definately use, and everyone on here has great advice and suggestions, so I thought I'd run it past y'all.. :D
 
Here are some:

Make Cooking Fun Again!

Host a Show, Earn Free Products!

Need extra money? Sell our stuff!

Hopefully, that will get things rolling.

Hi there! Advertising in a local classified paper can be a great opportunity for your business. Here are my suggestions for your questions:1) It depends on what your business is about. If you're offering a business opportunity, then the "Business Opportunities" category would be a good fit. If you're offering hosting services, then maybe "Miscellaneous" or "Employment Opportunities" would work. It's important to choose a category that accurately represents your business and will attract potential customers.2) I would suggest advertising the hosting opportunity since that is the main focus of your business. However, you can also mention the business opportunity in the ad if it's relevant.3) I understand that 6 words is a very limited space, but it's important to make those words count. You can try to use catchy phrases or keywords that will grab the reader's attention. For example, "Affordable Hosting Solutions" or "Join Our Hosting Network". Be creative and think about what would make someone interested in your business.Overall, my advice would be to keep your ad simple, clear, and eye-catching. Good luck with your advertising!
