“We couldn’t have been happier with the ad we placed with ‘Community News’. The team were great to work with in helping to create an ad that suited our branding and the key message we wanted to convey. Their team turned around artwork really fast and gave us pricing options based on a variety of marketing plans. In the first month we received 4 call backs directly due to the advert and word of mouth is definitely spreading! Highly recommend using Rhyll and her team to promote your business.”
