Is your newspaper signed up yet?

2/6/2008 — With the first sale under their collective belts, the LocalPoint Media sales staff is fired up and on the move, with 100+ proposals on the table. As media buyers from across the country seek a more valuable alternative to metro dailies, they’re recognizing that LocalPoint Media and the community and suburban newspapers it represents, more than fits the bill. With its one order, one bill structure, media buyers have an awesome opportunity to delve deeper into local communities like never before and at fantastic rates. Media buyers are now able to advertise in a number of community newspapers with just one simplified buy. It's simply never been easier for media buyers and planners. What was once a good, hard buy is now a good, easy buy.

LocalPoint Media represents 14 categories of national business currently underserved by suburban and community newspapers: travel, luxury, financial, automotive manufacturers and aftermarket, pharmaceutical, packaged goods, insurance, health & beauty, technology, telecom, food & beverage, pure-play internet and national political. LocalPoint does not pursue national retailers such as Target, Best Buy, Kohl’s etc.

Being part of a vast network focusing exclusively on suburban and community newspapers means a greater opportunity to receive national ad dollars, and remember, we are focusing on new business for all of our publications. Plus, there are no up-front costs to join; a fee is charged when advertising is placed into your publication(s). LocalPoint represents and proposes all markets in the US and Canada. In order to include your publications(s) on a proposal we need your rates/publishing information entered in the very simple web-based form and a signed service agreement. Keep in mind, LocalPoint is an extension of your sales force! LocalPoint Media represents the entire suburban and community newspaper industry, not just SNA members.
