Usually the first assessment of a small business owner buying their own media is that the salesperson from radio station X or TV station Y or cable system Z, is going to give them the best deal and the best ratings details. Perhaps, but, remember, those salespeople are trying to sell you THEIR product, not the best combination of products that would work as part of a complete advertising plan. Each salesperson will tell you that their product is the best option for getting new customers, and the other salespeople you sat down with that week are mistaken. Sometimes the price of the deal is too enticing to pass on. Everybody loves a sale, right?
When Better Merchants oversees all of the media buying for your business, we are interested in an emotion-free media buying experience with the vendor on an even playing field and the best interest of the small business owner in mind.
Better Merchants assesses the effectiveness and ratings data/research for all media, not just some of it.
How many times a week will the intended demographic have the opportunity to see your message?
Will you be wasting some impressions you paid for if your commercial is seen by people who would not drive to your location because it's too far away?
Is there some sort of accounting mechanism to show the small business owner in great detail that the media schedules ran where they were supposed to and seen by the intended audience?
Are you in the Lafayette/West Lafayette and surrounding areas? We are searching for trusted and established small businesses who provide a product/service that people need in good times or bad. Our roster of Better Merchants members include a funeral home, car dealership, HVAC, pest control, laundromat, locksmith, and payroll service, just to name a handful. These better merchants trust Better Merchants. We plan, produce, and place media buys and advertising content and we've done excellent work for decades. You don't have to go it alone or sit in another meeting with a media vendor! Please call Keith at
