LASER CRAZE
RETURN ON INVESTMENT SPECTRUM MONTHLY will generate new salesand develop new customer relationships foryour business in a cost effective manner!
SALES GENERATEDA $500 investment will require the following resultsto generate three times the revenue, or $1500.
AVERAGE SALE: $15 100 coupons = $1,500 AVERAGE SALE: $30 50 coupons = $1,500 AVERAGE SALE: $150 10 coupons = $1,500
NEW CUSTOMERSRetail statistics indicate that the cost of obtaining one new customer is between $150-$200. Based on this, if only EIGHT new customers learn about and patronize your business as a result of one ad in SPECTRUM, your business will be on the positive side of the transaction!
COST PER 1,000One technique for evaluating advertising expense is to calculate the cost per thousand or cost per household. Using this standard, a one-zone quarter-page ad will be delivered for less than 2 CENTS per household. With a quarter-page ad delivered to all zones, the cost per household drops to less than one penny per household!
READERSHIP+ SHELF LIFE = RESULTS!

SPECTRUM INSERTSWith Spectrum Monthly’s insert program, your business can take advantage of direct home delivery of a free standing piece at rates that are much lower than the cost of an individual direct mailing.
Spectrum inserts can be as small as a business card, or as large as a full size newspaper - but may not exceed 11” x 14” flat. Spectrum is delivered to the post office in wrapped bundles, so there is no chance of your insert falling out.
Insert the full circulation, an entire town or zip code, or only the area immediately surrounding your business. We’ll work with you to design a suitable customized inserting plan. Forget getting lost in the newspaper, make a real impression with a Spectrum Monthly insert!

SPECTRUM OUTSERTS
An outsert is one of Spectrum’s most powerful advertising placements. Stitched directly to the outside cover of each Spectrum Monthly publication, your message is kept in front of your local market for the entire shelf-life of the publication. Keeping a visible message in front of your prospective customers for up to an entire month and giving them a method to respond immediately is a proven strategy to deliver results. This format is limited to one advertiser per zone each month. Ask us for samples, special contract discounts, and reservation information.
