Directory of Services ads in Current
Continuous exposure
@ affordable cost

If you have public broadcasters as regular customers, or would like to, here's a great way of keeping your name in view: inexpensive "business card" ads in Current newspaper's Directory of Services.

What does it cost?

Several options are available:

Advertisements are to be prepaid for a sixth-month period (billed on January 1st or July 1st) at the rate of $43 per issue (as of July 2006).

Pay in advance (before being invoiced) by credit card and it will cost you $39 per issue.

Double-size ads also are available at double the price.

What does it look like?

Here are a couple of actual examples. (Note that online samples have relatively poor resolution and may not appear actual size.)

Example ads are for MajorGiving.com and Forest Incentives Ltd.
