The power of print

Press advertising is cost effective and delivers ROI

For businesses focused on growth and ROI, press remains one of the most cost effective advertising channels. In a world where audience attention is fleeting, print adverts command attention for 2.5 times longer than digital ads. As the most trusted advertising medium, press creates an ideal environment to engage with your audience and drive quality responses – whether you’re seeking leads, appointments, footfall, or sales. 

Beyond its direct impact, advertising in newspapers and magazines serves as a crucial touchpoint in multi-channel marketing campaigns, creating a powerful halo effect. Research demonstrates its amplifying effect on other channels: press advertising doubles the effectiveness of TV campaigns and quadruples the impact of online display advertising.

Press options

National Press

Put your messaging in front of millions of readers. One of the most cost effective ways to advertise if your focus is driving sales and building your customer base. Quick turnaround and short lead times allow for a flexible advertising schedule that hits when you need it.

Magazines

From mass market to niche targeting. Pick your audience and reach them in a glossy high-quality finish. Monthly magazines stay in the home longer, reaching a relaxed captive audience. Weeklies offer a shorter lead time and often boast large circulations for mass reach.

Regional press

Targeting geographic audiences in the heart of communities. Great for driving footfall to retail outlets. Recommended for advertisers with a need to target on a geographic basis.

AJ have provided me with an excellent, customised service. They have taken the time to understand our business and then develop a strategy to meet our business objectives. AJ has a dynamic, progressive mindset to find the best solution for their customers. I highly recommend them.
