    If You Were Given $10,000 a month to Advertise Your Company...

    What would you do? T.V.? Magazines? Internet Advertising? How would you spend your $10k a month budget?

    I guess that would depend a little on what your company did, dont you agree?

      depends on who your target market is.

      Tv is generally for reaching mass markets.

      Magazines are better as they have a profile of who their average reader is and thus is better for you to target certain segments.

              I'm thinking more of the line of targeted internet marketing. Web banners and SEO using targeted keywords. I would probably run adwords at minimal cost and use the excess money for advertisments on sites geared towards my target market.

              T.V. is a little to broad of a reach when you're targeting a niche market. Magazines work great but can get rather costly in order to hit your complete target market. A full page ad in Maxim costs around $175,000.

                    10k is not even enough to buy a page for 1 day in the local news paper

                        Depending on the industry, I have this PR guy that will guarantee a feature story in the WSJ, Time, Newsweek etc, and I would have a good chunk of $$$ left over.

                          I'd go for the most extravagant, most extreme marketing i could find.

                          Probably a prime time TV ad or something, with a top notch production crew.

                            $10k/month is not enough to do things like TV and Magazines effectively.


                            You should stick to targeted internet methods.
                            SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                              I agree, James. You could advertise in a local magazine with maybe a circulation of 35 to 45k but in national magazines...forget about it. Targeted internet marketing is the way to go when you're limiting your monthly budget to $10k.

                              Maxim was just an example.
