4 BENEFITS OF LOCAL ADVERTISING
TARGET A DEDICATED MARKET
We don’t deliver in irrelevant areas. You want your message to impact your potential customer base. And nothing more!
TRUE ENGAGEMENT EXPERIENCE
Magazine readers really take their time and linger when reading print. They also tend to fully interact with the content. Your advertising will stay with the audience for as long as they keep opening up El Mensajero.
PRINT ADS HELP TO LEGITIMIZE YOUR BRAND
The Internet is full of cybercriminals who use viruses to gain access to consumer’s private information. Web surfers have become very wary of clicking on banner ads, but have nothing to fear of your print ad.
PRINT IS A KEY IN BRAND BUILDING
When you advertise in a local magazine, your brand is associated with prominence and prestige. This recognition is then reinforced when they meet you in person at your place of business. This not only builds brand recognition but, in time, brand loyalty.
