For our readers, more advertising means more great services to choose from. For our advertisers, print advertising can give you more ‘bang’ for your advertising buck! Let’s use a car dealership’s TV commercial as an example. In 30 seconds, there’s only time to gloss over the details of a closeout sale and have enough time to tell viewers where to find the car lot.

On radio, you can’t even see the cars.

ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE

Jim Spann

That’s why print advertisements can boost floor traffic for any business. A full-page ad can show off all the cars, with prices and finance rates, and include a map to the dealership. A reader can study the ad without having the typical TV commercial announcer yelling at her to buy now before it’s too late.

You can choose the correct size of print advertising to meet your needs and budget. If you go to a TV or radio station, your only choices are likely a :10, :15 or :30 spot. But with newspaper advertising, you can study the rate card to choose to advertise just your logo, address and phone number, or a full-color ad that can highlight your entire inventory. For businesses new to advertising, buying a print ad is a more low-key decision than trying to decide how to produce a complicated, expensive TV commercial.

The couponing craze makes a compelling argument to buy print advertising as well.

Many businesses yearn for an increase in floor traffic. Putting a coupon into a print ad is an ideal way for them to get more people through their doors.

TV or radio commercials may say, “mention this ad for 5% off,” but that’s likely not the sure-fire traffic booster as having a printed coupon that gets into the customer’s hand. Plus, a business has

4

an easier time managing expiration dates with a print ad than in the fine print that flies by in a TV commercial.

True, there are some places in a publication that are more desirable than others. But you can definitely get noticed through a magazine insert. When a reader pulls out the inserts from the middle of our publication, their hands will be on the ad and they can’t help but glance at it, especially if it is in color.

In a recent poll of our readers, a whopping 93% told us they prefer print advertising to Internet and other types of advertising. Print advertisements may not be as flashy as their counterparts on radio or television, but for clients interested in a cost-effective, no-frills approach to boosting sales, a full-color image can put green into their cash registers.

Sincerely, Sonya North - CEO

or fat-free milk and milk products. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend that adults consume three servings daily. Unfortunately, most people only get about half that amount, according to USDA data.

Did You Know?

Yogurt is a Nutrient-Rich Food Choice For Your Diet

So why should we consume nutrientdense foods like yogurt?

Today’s dietary guidelines recommend that Americans consume more nutrient-rich foods that are low in sodium, saturated fat and cholesterol. Yet, few are meeting these goals. Unfortunately, roughly threefourths of Americans need to improve their diets, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Healthy Eating Index.

Nutrient-dense foods provide plentiful nutrients with relatively few calories.

Such foods include vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low-fat and fat-free milk and milk products, lean meats and seafood. Eating too few of these important foods can leave the body without enough valuable nutrients like vitamin D, calcium, potassium, or dietary fiber. One food group in which Americans are falling short is low-fat

The American Society for Nutrition (ASN) in collaboration with the Danone Institute International and The Nutrition Society in the United Kingdom is working with international nutrition and health experts to study the health effects of yogurt through a global initiative called Yogurt in Nutrition Initiative for a balanced diet. As part of this effort, the initiative will examine new and emerging data around the health effects of yogurt, spark research and share key scientific information with both the health care community and the public.

Rich in protein, calcium, potassium, magnesium and healthy bacteria, the already proven benefits of yogurt consumption include: • A better diet: A recent study found that people who eat yogurt have higher

intakes of essential nutrients and better diets overall. From one good habit comes another.

• Easy digestion: If you’re lactose intolerant, yogurt offers a nutrientdense, more easily digestible alternative to milk and other products that contain lactose.

• Weight management: As reported in the “New England Journal of Medicine,” consumption of yogurt, fruits, vegetables and whole grains are associated with less weight gain over time, with yogurt showing the greatest association.

• Overall health: Consumption of low-fat and fat-free dairy foods, such as yogurt, is associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes and lower blood pressure in adults.

From curries to parfaits, there are plenty of delicious ways to incorporate this nutrient-rich food into meals and snacks. For more information on the health effects of yogurt, visit www. nutrition.org/yogurt.

Who’s Who... in East County

Becky Bridgen has been riding for more than 30 years. She saw a need for accessible, affordable, quality maintenance and repair service locally, so with her business experience, she recently opened American Motorcycle Repair in Oakley.

American Motorcycle Repair offers affordable maintenance and repairs, done in a timely fashion. They specialize in Harley Davidson motorcycles and have a Harley Davidson Certified technician on staff. In addition, they carry stock parts and accessories, (plus a special order desk), affordable OEM and aftermarket products.

Becky tells us, “Customers know their motorcycles and should feel confident that our service technician is addressing their concerns. Because we want to build a relationship with our customers, we will listen to them and work with them to make sure their repair or service experience is an enjoyable one.”

Their honest, affordable and quality service will have you returning for all your repairs and maintenance and keep you on the road.

REMEMBER TO ALWAYS...

BUCKLE UP! One of the most important, immediate actions we can take as a nation to protect children and adults in motor vehicles is high-visibility enforcement of seat belt and child passenger safety laws. The American public knows they should buckle up. Despite this awareness, research shows that many are not taking the necessary steps to protect themselves and their children on every ride. We know that enforcing the law is the most effective way to change this behavior.

That is why the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Air Bag & Seat Belt Safety Campaign launch the Click It or Ticket Mobilization, a high visibility enforcement campaign that targets motorists who fail to buckle themselves and their children.
