Newspaper Subscriber Billing Statements - A Great Way to Get Your Feet Wet in the Statement Arena 04/19/2004
Echo Media offers a network of
newspaper billing statements in over 30 major markets in the United States. Advertisers’ pre-printed inserts ride along with invoices that are mailed via First Class directly to newspaper subscribers. By reaching consumers in their homes, and with the value of an important bill and a high opening rate, advertisers can target this select demographic of highly educated, affluent adults. Typically, each statement allots space for only one or two advertisers, resulting in more visibility and less clutter.
Additionally, newspapers do not require advertisers to customize their billing statement inserts with certain disclaimers or additional codes, simplifying the clearance and approval process. Testing newspaper billing statements is a great first step for advertisers to take who are new to the billing statement arena. Since newspaper billing statements are geographically defined by the newspaper in a particular market, advertisers can elect to test one or two markets at first, and eventually expand their marketing efforts to over 30 cities.
