Is business slow? Have things become stale? You don’t need to call Gordon Ramsay, you need to advertise. Word of mouth is invisible, the newspaper is not. Weekly specials, multi-ad campaigns, quarter pages, half pages, full pages, colour, flyers, classifieds, ads on the web, the business directory, or a little of everything. Come in today and see what we can do with your budget. Bounce some ideas off our friendly staff. Phone, fax, or email, too. We’ve been around 105 years, let us help.

It pays to advertise with The Community Press.
