Las Vegas Review Journal & Evening Sun Rate $126 pci (pci =per column inch) Minimum Runs :   2x

Bottom-Line :   $252 per week (Minimum) At SHOP LV, we "give you the world" for $250 ! .. for an entire year ! .. and just a (tad) more than one column inch .. try 3-5 print-size 8.5 x 11 pages ! Conclusion :   If you can not afford $250 to distribute your message over the Internet, I would reconsider the expense of advertising any business ...   See Henderson Home News ,   Boulder City News ,   El Mundo (Hispanic) ,   and coming soon to such papers as "Nifty Nickel", "Shopper" for Valley Markets to reach both consumers and merchants.   We are attempting to give all resource papers a common size (2 cols (cpi) x 1) ad where cost is not prohibitive, eg, Las Vegas Review Journal.   Thank you.

Every Friday, someone throws the Summerlin Home News in my driveway, or sometimes on the lawn (that was just watered,) or wrose, the street gutter, wet with someone up the street doing soime sort of watering.

Once'n awhile, I get a "dry one," and I try to store them in "mint condition," ie, "uncirculated" -- to show prospective advertisers all across the valley what a major waste these "throw away" newspapers are.

Oh, they may be a good source for some demographics, and the Classifieds which has its days numbered with the use of such popular online list as "Craig's List."

I know.     I tried every major "rag" in the valley and beyond, eg, Boulder City "Shopper," found in the racks of supermarkets there, in Boulder City, and parts of Henderson, south.

Many business owners, such as an informal encounter with the owner and wife of Fanco at Southern Terrace on the southwest side of town doing what my wife and I were doing:   home shopping, spends thousands of dollars in a month having inserts printed and distributed by the local newspaper or marketing media delivered to your home mailbox; campaign:   "Two for one offer."

As someone that spent the majority of his software consulting life on word-of-mouth, or personal referrals, I still like such marketing techniques as good customer service, and business cards handed out "like water."     You see, many a home service provider, such as landscaper, leaves their (business) card at neighbor homes where they just finished a job.     It makes sense; your potential customers get to see what fine work you did for your neighbor and dollar for penny, you can't beat the print cost (nor the free distribution, just your time.)

As someone in the advertising business, I watch like a hawk the kind of results certain media gets, and one of the worse for many small businesses is to get sucked into the hype for television advertising -- or worse, accessing the hotel tourist market when you are far from our Strip.

Television Advertising

No, Shop Las Vegas does not engage in television advertising and for good reason:   we could hardly offer the priceline we do, if we did.     You can not do everything, or expect everything when our focus is on the internet media and the search engine environment that really does help our advertisers having their own page.
