Newsnet Scotland has pleasure in announcing the re-activation of our promotional leaflet campaign.
At the beginning of the year we launched a trial campaign aimed at getting our readers involved in promoting the website. We were taken aback by the response and our initial print run of 5000 leaflets was snapped up within the first three days.
Newsnet Scotland has pleasure in announcing the re-activation of our promotional leaflet campaign.
At the beginning of the year we launched a trial campaign aimed at getting our readers involved in promoting the website. We were taken aback by the response and our initial print run of 5000 leaflets was snapped up within the first three days.
We learned a great deal, not least the logistics in trying to process orders ranging from 50 leaflets to two thousand. It became apparent that many of the orders were from campaign groups.
With that in mind this re-launch will restrict orders to a minimum of 1000. This will allow us to keep costs down and also satisfy demand from organisations. In our online store we will provide an option to order multiples of 1000 or 2500.
The small fee we have levied will allow us to cover most costs and will also, we believe, serve as a deterrent against those who would perhaps seek to order leaflets with no intention of distributing them.
As we said in January this year, the site has come a long way from the early days as a small newsletter distributed in late 2009. We now challenge much of what passes for political news coverage from the more traditional news outlets and cover stories some would rather remained unreported.
In October last year we achieved our best ever month by attracting over 90,000 unique visitors – quite an accomplishment for a site that has no advertising whatsoever. In March this year we broke the 90,000 barrier again – recording our highest ever unique visitor total.
This leaflet campaign will allow our readers to contribute to the growing success of the site, which we believe will break through the 100,000 unique visitor barrier very soon.
The biggest decision Scots will ever make now 18 months away, and with the Scottish media still showing no signs of engaging in mature and informative debate, this is an opportunity for ordinary Scots to shape the debate themselves.
So, if you want to help bring Newsnet to even more Scots then click HERE and order your leaflets now. Newsnet Scotland will hope to have leaflets delivered within seven days of order.{jcomments on}
