There are many reasons that most Advertising does not work (despite the efforts of the newspapers and magazines and certain 'publications' to convince you otherwise.)
Of all the reasons that you need to be terribly careful with advertising - one reigns supreme.
That reason is 'wastage.' The principle is very simple.
If you advertise in your favourite newspaper or magazine, there may well be people who see your ad who will respond. But to get to those people, you're also paying to reach hundreds, probably thousands of people who have absolutely no interest in what you're offering.
Paying to reach these people is the 'wastage.' The cost of reaching them, just to get through to the handful who do respond, is what makes most advertising a huge waste of money for most small business owners.
Now imagine this....
What if there was a publication where every single person who saw your ad had a strong interest in what you have to offer. In addition, this publication only showed your advert when people had asked specifically for your product or services. You only pay to have your advert appear in front of the people who are looking for what you sell !!

Once they are typed into our search box by any one of the 90,000 users per week who come looking......Up you come......
