ADVERTISING
As a strategy, advertising is useful when you
don’t know your target audience by name or
company, yet, are part of a business niche with
related publications and supporting web sites.
Today, web, print and e-news advertising
opportunities abound. Many are quite
expensive. Jumping on a media promotion
offering cost savings, however, is not as cost-
effective as investing in an orchestrated media
plan embracing all viable channels.
Effective advertising offers a big promise that is
enduring and uniquely yours. This is why the
message must come first. Creative’s job is to
attract readership and deliver the message.
