the Cost of Print Marketing and Advertising

This service is advertising 1 inch print ads. I advertise in small mail order money making publications and adsheets. Most of the ads I run range in price of about $2 for a 1 inch ad. The publications are mailed from small home based businesses with circulations of around 1-5 thousand each.

Advertising in these small publications is a good way for me to test the success of various mlm material. The more reputable ones pull very well considering the cost. They do take awhile to actually be mailed, though. Sometimes you will have to wait as much as 3 months before you are sent a checking copy. That is because in order to make a profit, the publications have to get enough orders before they are mailed. A typical adsheet needs to fill about 30 1 inch ads per sheet front and back. They are mailed when 5 pages are completely filled. Other than the wait time, this is a very cost effective way to start marketing on a budget.

I would encourage anyone who is willing to invest in these small mail order publications and adsheets to do their homework first. There are quite a few con artists who will take your money without mailing a thing. That is why dealing with an adsheet organization is a very good idea. The adsheet organizations list only reputable publishers who have been in the business for years. Make sure you code your ads (write a different small letter or number on each ad you submit for publication). This way, when customers return your ad for more information on your business, you will be able to track the progress of each publication.
