How to advertise on The MESSAGE Marketplace
Have a special event or limited time promotion you want to advertise? Or are you looking for a way to gain more exposure for your business among the Anglophone community in Paris?
Introducing The MESSAGE Marketplace -- our first ever online advertising venue.
A virtual billboard for an array of products and services, ads in The Marketplace will be available for viewing to both the 1500-strong MESSAGE membership as well as the general public who visits the MESSAGE website. A special link button directs potential customers from our welcome page to The Marketplace in just one click.
The Marketplace will contain a maximum of 12 individual ad spaces at any one time; reserve your space for a three-week duration.
Ads consist of a small product image or your company logo and your ad copy.
Ads submitted for The MESSAGE Marketplace must meet the following criteria:
Ø Logos/Images should be scanned as close as possible to final size in order to minimize blurring during the resizing process. Save images using PSD or PNG formats. Avoid saving images in JPG, GIF or any other format. Save color images as RGB (not CMYK), and for black and white or monotone images, save as Grayscale (not Black and White).
Ø Keep headlines short (3 - 4 words max). Body Copy should be no more than 35 words to make your ad legible. Consider using just an image and a catchy headline. If you supply us with your URL, we can enable click-thru to your site from the ad.
Full payment, in the form of a cheque made payable to the order of "MESSAGE," is due before your ad is posted to The MESSAGE Marketplace. Your ad will be posted on the deadline following receipt of your payment.
Special Offers:
Ø Purchase ad space in 2 or more consecutive 3-week rotations and take 10% off the price of each insertion.
Ø Purchase any size display ad in the MESSAGE magazine and take 10% off a one-time insertion for your ad in The Marketplace during that same quarter.
Please contact The Marketplace Coordinator at marketplace@messageparis.org for rates and other details.
MESSAGE reserves the right to reject or cancel any ads it deems inappropriate for the website.
MESSAGE makes no guarantee as to the number of impressions for your ad or click-thru rate/traffic generated to your site.
