PRODUCT & SERVICES (ONLINE ADVERTISEMENT)
Why advertise on SweepersOnline.Com?
Historically, businesses have used local print media, radio and TV as well as telephone yellow pages to advertise their business. While this works well for most businesses, we believe it is not the only way to go. You are no longer tied down to the limitations and short comings of the telephone or local yellow pages or other print media. We are a Worldwide advertisement portal and resource community for the entire Sweeping Industry-we have no limits or boundaries on who we can reach or on the amount of content we can deliver.Is This Expensive?
There are obviously many ways to look at this question. Let us give you two reasons we believe it is not. First, consider your return on investment. For a contractor membership, our package costs currently $98, you only need to complete one sweeping job per year to cover your cost! Second, compare this to the cost of your Yellow Page and newsletter ads. Check your phone bill for last month and see what you paid. We are only currently $8 per month. Most telephone directories list the towns and cities that are covered by that book. Look at their list, then take another look at our distribution and advertisement limitations, OH!, THERE ARE NONE-We are nationwide and global-by advertising with us your company can reach the entire globe. Which covers more area? Not to mention our ads and listings are dynamic.What are the options?
There are many! There are one or more for your budget, business category, and marketing plan!
