yellow pages ad

[Greg Newell]

Avery,
         Well, to add insult to injury I actually 
increased, nominally, my ad size this coming 
year. The reason I did was that I added moving to 
my list of services and want to get that word 
out. Your math, however is a little funny. 150 a 
month times 12 months divided by the 4 or 5 
calls. Now there's math I don't want the know the 
result of. Actually I keep the ad in there for 
credibility. If they loose my card, or my 
reminder, or flyer they can still find me there. 
I've no idea how many use my ad that way. I see 
the yellow pages as more of a reference book. I'm 
in there because, "yeah, I'm still in business! 
... here I am" . If you try hard enough you can justify almost anything :-\

best,
Greg
