Questions And Answers
(Continued, lrom Page 18) some smattering of an idea about the effectiveness of your advertising program.
If you find that, after three months with one newspaper, you aren't getting the play you need, don't be afraid to look around for another medium. In some metropolitan areas there is no effective newspaper for your own area. Ask the supermarket manager near you where he advertises. Perhaps you should put more of your budget into the home,delivered flyers. Occasionally there is a local throwaway advertiser bulletin or a weekly mailer that ofiers better coverage of the homes in your area.
