50 COLLEGE PAPERS TO ADVERTISE IN

Colleges have tremendous circulation of their bulletins and
newspapers. Their price per run on advertising is very
inexpensive for the number of prospects reached. Believe it or
not, multi-millions of dollars are spent by students each
semester.

If you have a new idea or product, run a test ad in one or more
of the publications and see if you get results. Usually a less
expensive 1" ad will let you know whether your product or
service is going to pull or not. If your test ad proves
successful, then you may want to go to a larger ad or even a
display-type ad and increase your coverage to include more
bulletins and newspapers.

Another way to distribute your product is to advertise for a
student on campus to represent you on a commission basis and be
your dealer. Usually there are several students who would love
to have the opportunity to make some extra money. A good way to
find the right person is by resume qualifications or actually
calling them on the phone and talking it over with them.
Finding the key person could result in many easy dollars in your
pocket.

In the past, some of the biggest sellers on campus have been
radio and stereo equipment, music tapes, car repair manuals,
study aids, self-improvement booklets and tapes, school fads of
various natures, and any kind of special or different steins for
drinking beer. Any new idea or product you may be able to come
up with could be very advantageous to you in the form of
increased sales.

Advertising in college bulletins and newspapers gains more
results during the first three days of the week. When ordering
advertising, it is best to specify that your ad appear in the
Monday-Wednesday editions. Thursday is okay, but Friday is
definitely out; minds seem to drift toward plans for the
weekend, leaving little interest for purchasing.

Write to the enclosed list of publications. Ask for their rates
and circulation. All of them will respond to your needs and
many of them will call you and discuss whatever plans you have
for advertising. They will work with you to try to see that you
get the most response from any type ad you may run.

We sincerely hope this report helps you in gaining sales and is
an instrument in the growth of your company. You cannot beat
the circulation of prospects reached for the dollars spent.
Have a good year!
