Here's the quote from the Courier Express. Sounds like $120 for the two
ads. That means we need to have 24 people show up just to break even on
the newspaper ad. Then there's the cost of the copies and any other ad
costs that come in from the other sources. Blaine -------- Original Message --------
I am thinking a 4"x3" ad to run 10-1 & 10-8 at $59.52 per ad. Let me know if this works. Prepayment is required. On Sep 13, 2010, at 1:08 PM, Blaine Clark wrote: Hello all, |
Hello all,
Here is the latest info on the Dining in the Dark exercise for the Pennsylvania Council of the Blind. Sorry for the delay, Aussie has undergone a change in managership and some details had to be re-established.
We would appreciate any public service or non-profit advertising cost-cuts. We are only making $5 per plate plus any on-the-spot donations we may receive.
Please RSVP ASAP with any further questions and/or call Roxanne Pearce or Stephanie Cleveland at Aussies, 503-8303 for restaurant details.
