For Our Sponsors:
A list of key points is listed below, followed by a more descriptive explanation.
- Lockout of competitors in same field. Advertise to your benefit and your competitor's detriment! Has your niche already been filled? Don't sweat, you can still give us a call to be put on a waiting list, and the moment it opens back up we'll be sure to let you know.
- Visibility in 32+ (and growing!) locations.
- Easy way to promote coupons and promotions.
- No insertion fee.
- Geographically targeted demographics - the people that read Coffee Bytes live, work, or play in Michigan City, Indiana. Meaning you're not wasting money advertising in irrelevant locales.
- Free simple ad design. Should you need something more advanced, we can negotiate that.
- Free change/update of existing ad. Has your promotion expired? Changing hours for the season? New coupon? Don't sweat! Give us a simple phone call and we'll take care of it!
- Your ad is seen by people over and over again, giving them time to absorb what you have to offer. These ads work 3 meals a day, 7 days a week.
- When you advertise with us, you are included on the website in an interactive & downloadable Google Earth map overlay which gives locations to all of our distributors and advertisers. How cool is that?
- The ads in Coffee Bytes are actively read by our viewers, rather than passively seen like with other mediums like billboards.
As a sponsor, your advertisement will appear in 32+ (confirmed and growing!) Michigan City, Indiana locations – with more on the way as distributors are added. Like distributors, you will also be included on the website and part of the downloadable map. Also, once a sponsor's niche has been filled (1 sponsor per niche), no other sponsors are allowed in the same category - meaning only one roofing, one insurance, or one realty ad in each edition. In that regard, not only is sponsoring Coffee Bytes beneficial to reach out to your potential customers, it also keeps your competition from gaining valuable ground.
Sponsorship rates are highly competitive and as low as $10 per week. Each ad is a standard 2”x3” in dimensions. Compare our weekly 2x3 to another area publication's monthly $7 per square inch. - that's $42 for one month of the same issue – it starts to get boring after the first week and just gets thrown away or forgotten. With them, there's no possibility to adjust your ad in the middle of the month no matter how much notice you give.
Each week the ads are purposely placed in different random locations giving each edition a slightly different feel – keeping it from getting 'stale'. If you're running a special or need to change hours on your ad, I will update as necessary with no additional charge. There is no insertion fee.
