2009 CO-OP MARKETING OPPORTUNITIES

SPRING/SUMMER INSERT

Following on the success of last year’s Midwest Living Magazine insert we selected a new insert program which is a larger, tabloid size that is inserted into newspapers in our target markets (see cities below).  This insert is underwritten by DCVB and, therefore, makes it affordable for our members to have a presence to over 500,000 households in our zip code selected markets.  The insert will feature each community, as well as Door County copy.  The back page will be divided into ads for embers to purchase.  These are either a photo and word description  or a photo of your brochure.  The attached insertion form gives you sizes and specifics.

 

·        Partner investment: $750 per ad (could not run without co-op dollars from DCVB, but usual rate is $1100 for the member ads)

o       Reader Service

o       Deadline on or before Feb. 13, 2009 based on availability.  Space is limited.
