FAQs

What is print advertising, and how can it help my business?

Print advertising is a form of outbound marketing where you will use print media (newspapers, magazines, brochures, billboards and flyers) to advertise your services.

Your print ads can be via a text-based article, an image, or a mixture of both – your goal will be the same, capturing your audience’s attention so they visit your website or local shop to find out more.

While this may seem outdated, it’s still an extremely effective way to reach your customers, especially the older demographic.

What type of print advertising services does LOCALiQ offer?

There are various print media opportunities for your business – here are the most common types available:

Newspapers

Local, regional and national publications – newspapers are an excellent cost-effective option for your business with their reach and low cost. Work with LOCALiQ and advertise your services to thousands of local communities across the UK.

Magazines

Magazines provide the opportunity to promote visually appealing ads to your audience, catering to the specific niche of each publication.

Direct mail

Target a specific audience with a well-timed direct mail campaign, sending your potential customers brochures, letters and flyers through the post.

Posters and billboards

Attract your customers while they are on the move with poster advertising.

Which print advertising methods does LOCALiQ use?
