Statewide Newspaper Advertising in Minnesota

Advertising in the state-wide Minnesota 2x2 Display Network is inexpensive, convenient, and has consistently obtained great results for our clients.

Or, if you prefer, it's "cheap, easy, and effective."

About the Ad Program

Your ad runs once each week in more than 275 local newspapers throughout Minnesota, ranging in size from several dailies to small-town weeklies, and located geographically in every part of the state.

Choose from two sizes: 2-columns wide by 2-inches high, or 2-columns wide by 4-inches high.

There are also regional options if your target area is only a portion of the state.

LOW COST

Pricing is in the next column. If you were to place a 2x2 ad in each participating newspaper individually, the cost would be more than $14,300.

However, coordinated through this program of the Minnesota Newspaper Association (MNA), each paper allows a huge discount for a limited number of ads to make this opportunity available.

CONVENIENT AND EASY

Simply place one order with us and your ad is routed through the system into all the participating newspapers.

Deadline is Tuesday morning at 10:30 (earlier near major holidays), and each paper runs the ad in its next available edition. One payment takes care of everything.

If you desire, a single tearsheet and affadavit stating proof of publication is provided by MNA.

GREAT RESULTS!

Our clients keep coming back because this program has proven results with effective ads.

Local newspapers still have a greater "reach" than any other media, so approaching people through their hometown newspaper with content they are interested in only makes sense.

Not only that, but nothing else can come close to the cost per view on this scale -- at the industry average of 2.3 readers per copy, that comes out to less than three-quarters of a cent per view! Ask any marketing professional if he/she likes those numbers.

As with any advertising, consistency improves performance, so ordering a statewide 2x2 ad schedule along with a major ad campaign increases the effectiveness of both.
