WHY ADVERTISE WITH The Right Target Audience It is the most important factor, which makes a world of difference and will move your business from market penetration, to market domination.

Results

"The ultimate reason to advertise and your choice of where to advertise is return on investment. A cheap ad campaign that produces few results ends up being an expensive ad campaign. With this in mind, we track our ROI in all advertising that we do.

The ";H&L campaign by far has produced the best return on investment of any advertising vehicle we tried. And we've tried a lot."

All Hannah’s parents should worry about is Hannah When Hannah’s bloodwork revealed cancer, her family was devastated. But because of our donors, her mom and dad can focus on being parents while she looks forward to her visits with the music therapist at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.® Families like Hannah’s will never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food—because we believe all they should worry about is helping their child live.

Experience Hannah’s story at stjude.org/hannah

“We’re blessed to be here because St. Jude makes it so we really can just focus on her.”

©2017 ALSAC/St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (28459)
