To most companies, advertising in Yellow Pages is the unshakeable cornerstone of their annual marketing spend and they would no more think of cancelling it than they would hire as office manager.

Surely Yellow Pages is established, recognised everywhere and enjoys strong distribution. It's expensive, but is there any alternative?

A moderately sized quarter of half page ad is looking at 3 -5K a year. A whole page? That can be anything from 5K to over 8K for the year. There's no negotiation; take it or leave it - and that's with the regulators on their back capping and indeed cutting rates by 3.4%.

How surprising is it that more and more of my clients are cutting back expenditure on Yellow Pages?

Not surprising at all really. If you think about it, search is not new and it has played a major part in marketing activity for decades in the form of and directories. Effective simply takes this a further, unlocking as is does the incredible introductory potential the provides between supplier and consumer to connect and do business.

This trend is reflected in Yellow Pages own market analysis, which shows a in from 78% to 75% year on year. Interestingly, it is newer customers who are leaving.

Yellow Pages ads are viewed by people who have all ready made a decision to buy. Don't emphasise why your product or service is needed but rather why it should be obtained from you. Consumers need and want two types of information from Yellow Pages adverts.

Firstly, they need to know why they should purchase from one company and not another.

Secondly, they need information that facilitates making their purchase ie they need to know how to make the purchase or have a call to action.

If you really focus and see things through your customers eyes then your Yellow Pages ad copy should virtually write itself.

The use of colour and how Yellow Pages charge for it is pretty unbelievable.

The book is now printed on white paper (think about it you can't have white ink)

Yellow Pages charge more for white in your adverts - 40% in fact.

But, Yellow Pages actually have to take an extra step to print a yellow coloured ad ie they overlay white paper with a yellow ink but this is cheaper than a white ad.

Our surveys show that colour is not the most important factor in selecting an advert. In fact, it is well down the list.

Yellow Pages sales reps often argue:

"It'll only cost you £800 a year to move up to the next largest ad size and ad colour. Don't you believe that the increased sales you'd obtain would more than offset that expense?"

This is a bad argument for a number of reasons....

It assumes that the business generated by your original ad pays for itself

It assumes that you make a 100% profit on each sale (nice work if you can get it)

It assumes that the use of £800 for additional Yellow Pages advertising would generate more business than would the use of the same £800 in another media

Nonetheless I see many of my clients putting all their eggs in one "Yellow Pages" basket without obtaining effective proof that their adverts are actually working.

The secret is to monitor the response to each and every advert you place.

If you can't measure it you can't manage it.

I know from my experience as a former Yellow Pages sales rep that one had to continually create a false sense of urgency. Typically Yellow Pages reps only work two directories ie they are in each area for six months at a time. The reps are paid a commission on signed orders so it's no surprise they go in for the kill.......

I have to keep it out and in plain sight for the whole world to agree that yes; I have a phonebook available for your information pleasure. I lose another useless monstrosity. Right, because something that is 6 inches thick and could be injurious when thrown appropriately could be lost easily. But seriously, do you think I know where it is? No, because I never use it. Just about anything that I need from it can be found on the Internet. The people that want to be found will be in the phone book, but I can look for them online as well. And if they don't want to be found, well, I am not going to find them in either place. But every year, Bell without fail drops one off at the end of my driveway, and within minutes, it ends up - somewhere - just in case I have an immediate phone number emergency where 911 does not apply (I have that one memorized, anyway).

Also, with the advent of sites like Craigslist or web directory sites, I have many more options available to me within seconds if I need information. Craigslist and web directories operate very similarly to the Yellow Pages, with a few extras. Craigslist is primarily a classified ad site, but it can give a whole lot of useful information. Not only can I find local business information, but can also look for housing (which will come in handy for my husband if he attempts the toilet roll conundrum one more time), look for work, social activities, or whatever other community classifieds information you might want. What makes it even better is that I will be free from the attack of the ads while I am doing so, as I am in so many other places on the Internet.

In fact, Craigslist is so easy to use, and now, very much in demand, having over 15 million users a month, that even my online Yellow Pages are becoming archaic. The information on Craigslist is also current information, which does not always hold true for the Yellow Pages, online or otherwise. And now, with eBay controlling some of its shares, it is doing very well even in the presence of big players like Google and Yahoo. may already have become things of the past, but we have already found substitutes.

Are any of the advertisements unique?

Do they all look the same?

I just opened up my Yellow Pages to the s section. Here's what I'm seeing:

Flat work, Retaining Walls, Floors, Foundations, Driveways, Curbs, Sidewalks, Patios; Commercial, Residential; Free Estimate; Licensed and Insured

Ho hum. Not compelling. Not unique. Not persuasive.

Nothing tells me that any of these are going to give me any better service than any of the others.

This is why 90% of Yellow Pages customers get three estimates and take the low price.

Now, go gather up all of your .

I'm not kidding. Go get them.

Got them in hand?

Good.

Read them thoroughly.

Do they all read like bigger versions of a Yellow Pages ad?

I'll bet your website does also (assuming you have one).

99% of contractors make the same advertising mistakes. Don't be like them. Be different.

* Don't list your services. * Don't list "free estimate". * Insert a testimonial or three. * Offer a free report "How to avoid getting shafted by your concrete contractor." * Make a that grabs their attention. * Be funny.

Somehow, you must show prospects you understand what is important to them and will bend over backwards to meet their needs.

Let's pretend I am a home owner looking for a concrete contractor to replace my porch. What might I care about?

A fair price.

Quick work - in and out in the shortest possible number of days.

you were ever there.

A porch that lasts for rest of my home ownership.

Knowledge of how to keep the concrete, and the base below it, in .

And most importantly, confidence that I will not regret my choice of concrete contractor.

Now that you are beginning to understand what is wrong with your advertisements, let me tell you how to fix them.

Most problems in life have already been solved by someone else. Your challenge is to find those advertising solutions. Fortunately, the internet came along and made your research a lot easier.

Get online and start searching for contractors in your trade. Dig deep into their web sites. Print out pages that have captivating text.

Now, call several of your best customers and ask them why they selected you. Ask them how they select other contractors. What advertising has grabbed their attention? What has gotten them burned? What will they do the next time they are looking for a contractor?

With all of this information in hand, you are ready to write your advertising copy. How about having some fun while doing this? Work is always better when it's fun.

Grabbed several friends and a couple of businessmen and women you respect (from outside the construction industry), talk them into joining you for a brainstorming session, provide food and drink, and get their input.

You will probably end up with far better advertising ideas than you will by hiring a professional marketing agency. You will have a lot more fun, save a lot of money, and produce better results.

You've got to give your prospects a reason to call you and only you. If you have been using "me-too" advertising, re-do them immediately. You're losing business everyday you don't.

Here are three tips that you should look into.

Chiropractic 1: The Internet

Who isn't connected to the internet these days? People spend countless hours on the web just surfing, downloading, chatting etc. Why don't you make use of this market by . Just set up a basic website first. A website that tells somebody about yourself, the services that you aim to give, and even a special offer to new patients.

Once you set up a website, you can ask current patients for testimonials to post on your website. These testimonials will help convince that you are a real, caring doctor that has seen successful cases in your practice.

It's important not to focus on building a fancy or pretty website. Not only will this cost you a lot of money, but it is not effective in getting new patients. It's best to keep it very simple, yet focused. Your site for new patients should be easy to load and read. You want the new patient to call you to schedule an appointment, so your website should lead them to this action.

A simple web address that people will surely remember can be one of the steps that you can take. Aside from that, make sure that your site contains common keywords that your prospective patients will likely search for. The more keyword focused you can be on your website (within reason), the more traffic will be driven to you through the . When I teach doctors on how to set up their websites, I will recommend they focus their pages on keywords people are searching for in their area.

Chiropractic Marketing Tips 2: Radio

You can try . Before anything else, figure out the market that you are targeting because this will play an important factor in the radio station that you will get, the time slot that you will play, duration of your ad, etc. As a tip, the time that most people drive to and from work are the peak hours since most people will be tuned to their radio. Although it will definitely reach a lot of listeners, this will cost you more money.

Chiropractic Marketing Tips 3: Yellow Pages

When people need help right now, they still turn to the Yellow Pages for a chiropractor. Once you decide to put up an ad in the yellow pages, make sure that you provide an attention grabbing headline. After the headline, a list of bullets detailing your services and how they benefit the patient. Also focus on what makes your office different. Keep the images small and to a minimum. You want to use the valuable space in your ad to convince the prospect to call you.

You can choose from a number of formats for the links on your page to make them fit in with the rest of the design, and whether you provide a link through to a page within Amazon where users can buy a particular book to complement the information you are providing.

The great thing about the is that at the same time as you are helping your users to get easier access to the information that they want, through a link directly through to its source, you are also being paid for your time and effort in creating the content in the first place. You can either choose to receive your payment in cash directly into your bank account, or alternatively, in the form of vouchers that you can spend on Amazon itself.

Although there are plenty of other similar available online, there are none which allow you to provide on such a wide range of subjects or to such a wide range of as the Amazon associate program does, and this, thanks to the ease with it can be implemented on your pages makes it the perfect choice for any user who wants to gain an important source of revenue from their online efforts.

How could a simple yellow notepad have such power?

Here is the story:

The millionaire CEO gave each of his employees a yellow, legal sized notepad and a pen. He also gave them these instructions:

1. Carry the notepad and pen with you at all times during your workday. Keep it handy, and within reach.

2. In the morning write down a short "To Do" list in the notepad,list the things you want to accomplish that day.

3. During the day use the notepad to capture every name and of anyone you talk to, write down addresses, flight times and reservation numbers, meeting times and dates, record virtually every bit of important data into your yellow notepad.

Here is how they benefited from this simple positive habit, and how you can also, regardless of who you are, or what you do. (businessmen,housewives, students, CEO's, etc.)

1. When you need to call someone back, their number is always just a glance away.

2. What was that fight number again? What was that policy number the insurance agent gave you 3 days ago? What were the directions to the wedding? It's all in your yellow notepad!

3. It helps you keep track of your "To Do" list action items.

Your yellow notepad becomes a , Meeting Planner, Map, and one stop source for all of your important information that you gather every day. (Remember how you used to jot down that information on little bits of paper? Remember how you could never find that one piece of paper with the phone number you needed?)

However, if you go browsing through advertisements for dog kennels, you can't help but notice that there are many ads that loudly proclaim that they breed Retrievers. And by that, they do not mean a Golden Retriever/Labrador Retriever mix (which are also known as Golden Labrador Retrievers). They actually saying a golden colored PUREBRED Labrador Retriever.

Suspected Scam

The only three recognized colors of are yellow, black and chocolate (which used to be called liver). s have there are many shades of their yellow hair. Some are so pale that they are called "white", even though their papers will call them yellow. The darkest shade of yellow is sometimes called "gold". But still, even the darkest golden Labrador Retriever will not compare to the luster of a Golden Retriever.

Sadly, like PT Barnum said, "there's a sucker born every minute". These kind of people will believe whatever they are told. If they are told that there is such a thing as a purebred golden Labrador, they will break open their wallets and buy one. Even when they can clearly see that the puppy's color is yellow, they think the "golden" label means "premium" and they will buy the so-called "golden Labrador Retriever" at higher price, over the identical-looking "yellow Labrador Retriever".

Golden Lab Is Not Always Better Than A Yellow Lab

If you do discover that your pricey "golden Labrador Retriever" is simply a yellow Lab, take it easy. Your dog will still be loyal and comical and loving. Keep the dog. But by all means, complain to the about how the dog was represented. It would help if you had a copy of the original ad that lead you to the kennel and a copy of the contract. You did get a contract with your "golden Labrador Retriever", didn't you? If not, there's ANOTHER thing to complain about.

If you had your lab from a rescue shelter and your lab was listed as a purebred golden Labrador Retriever, the staff just made a common mistake. Don't rip into them about it -- they are doing the best they can. You could write a thank you letter about how well you are getting on with your rescue dog and just casually mention that, officially, there is no such thing as a purebred golden Labrador Retriever. Once that is done, concentrate on building up a great friendship with your new Lab of whatever color.

Closing Words

If you already have a golden labrador retriever, don't stop caring for your lab even now you know that he (or she) is not a purebred. Telling about this fact you have just learned to people around you that is considering to buy a labrador retriever would be something valuable.

Television is an option for attorney marketing. Lawyers can purchase air time in order to advertise on commercials. In the digital age, this is not as effective of an advertising tool as it once was. Now, more homes than ever have a which enables them to record their shows and fast forward through the commercials. This causes the commercials with the lawyer's information to be missed. Therefore, this is no longer an effective adverting method.

Some lawyers use the radio in order to get their name out to the public. The radio was once a for advertising. Now, with commercial on the rise, the radio does not offer the same that it once did. Money can be wasted on . There is not a guarantee that people will even hear advertisements on the radio, and if they do, they will not be able to get a visual of the company, which is often necessary.

Attorney marketing can also be done through print media such as newspapers and magazines. Just like television, this can be a very expensive way to advertise. Also, many people do not pay attention to the advertisements they see in their newspapers and magazines. They skip through them, paying little if any attention to what they say. That causes this to also be an ineffective method of advertising.

The Yellow Pages are another print outlet that is used for advertising. At one time, it was a very . In fact, people used to almost always use the phone book in order to find services. Now, that is not the case as much anymore. In fact, many advertisements in the Yellow Pages go unnoticed. As the times have changed, companies have realized that the Yellow Pages do not offer effective marketing.

Some firms rely simply on word of mouth. While word of mouth can certainly be powerful, it does not replace the need for sound advertising. Word of mouth will certainly help a company but a sound advertising strategy is still needed in order for the firm to be successful.

Currently, the most popular medium for attorney marketing is through the internet. More people than ever are going online to get their information. Firms can put as much information as they wish onto the internet, and in most cases it is not expensive. When advertising on the internet, firms know that they are reaching a large amount of people at all times.

Like several other members of the perch family, yellow perch are native to Maine, though they have been introduced artificially into a limited number of waterways, mainly for the purposes of fishing. Though yellow perch are not particularly sought-after fish as far as seasoned anglers are concerned, they do offer a superb fishing opportunity for young or inexperienced anglers, and as such remain one of Maine's most popular game fishes.

Typically, yellow perch are around 6-12 inches in length with a weight anywhere between  and 1 pound. However, Maine is renowned for superb yellow perch, with larger fish reaching 15 inches in length and a weight nearer to 1.5 pounds. The advantage of this is that even beginner anglers are handed a challenge, particularly if they land one of the larger fish.

Yellow perch are great looking fish with a number of distinguishing features. The top side varies in colour from rich green to olive whilst the sides range from a yellow-green colour to golden yellow. The belly is typically white, while the fins are bright orange in colour. Yellow perch also have 6-8 dark bands that run vertically from top to bottom, making them easily distinguishable from other species. Typically, yellow perch are found in warm, weedy waters, though adults are more prone to heading for deeper and more sheltered spots.

The fall and winter months are the best time to land yellow perch, but like , are a good all year round catch. , minnows, shrimp and artificial lures can all be used to great effect, and will almost guarantee you a yellow perch in some of the more abundantly populated rivers and lakes. If fishing in deeper waters, adding a small weight to the line and letting the bait sink to one-two foot from the bottom will yield best results. Also ensure that the line is fairly tense, as yellow perch in particular have a habit of taking the bait without alerting the angler.

Yellow perch can be found in countless rivers, lakes, ponds and streams across Maine, making them one of the most accessible fish in the state. Particularly popular spots include Great Pond, Yellow Pond and Cochrane Lake. Their ease of catch, fantastic looks and abundance has ensured that yellow perch continue to be a firm favourite and one of Maine's most commonly fished species.

Advertising, or . With these programs, your advert is displayed on the search engine results page for a query that you specify, and then users have the choice of clicking through to your website for more information or to make a purchase.

An example of this might be a florist who agrees to pay $1 each time someone who searches for flowers using Google clicks on their advert. Each time a user makes the click, the pays up, meaning that they only get traffic to their website that is interested in the product.

Of course, there are several drawbacks to this method of advertising. For example, there are cases where people who have no intention of buying a service click on the advert, which then costs money for no benefit. Another problem comes from the website itself. If it is poorly designed, or does not work hard enough to convert the prospect into a sale, then the money spent on advertising is wasted. A third drawback comes if the customer is not quite ready to buy, in which case the advertiser may have to pay several times for the same user as they return.

Perhaps the best alternative to Pay-Per-Click advertising is Click-To-Call. Using this particular model, every time a user clicks on an advert, they are connected to the advertiser over the phone. This can be achieved using a VOIP service like , and is also available on mobile phone networks, in which case the phone is diverted from the web onto a voice call when an advert is selected.

The advantages of click to call are enormous. You are able to answer the questions of the buyer and convert them into a sale more effectively than a website, can avoid the problems of click fraud that are opened up by the pay per click model, because every call connects, and because you are able to take over the client's attention completely, you are less likely to lose them to a competitor than if they are allowed to surf the web. All of this makes your conversion rate potentially much higher with Click-To-Call rather than Pay-Per-Click.

The newest click-to-call provider, Radiux (http://www.radiux.com) offers unlimited inbound calls for one flat fee and might be the best solution for budget conscious business owners.

Conclusion: for most businesses click-to-call IS the better solution over pay-per-click, although you might want to keep your pay-per-click campaign for a while in addition to your new pay-per-call solution.
