Effective ways to sell ad space on local publication
Permalink   
 


Hello everyone! I'm a 16 year-old young entrepreneur with a small publication in my hometown called SpotJunkie. Just to help here a little bit, let me tell you a little more about my publication.

SpotJunkie is a local weekly 4 page publication for the community and surrounding areas, to help them find deals, events, cars for sale, properties for rent/sale, coupons from the local restaurants and more. 

I have already published 2 issues; it's doing very well with the 1,000 I've printed for both issues. But my problem is that I don't know how to sell ads to the local businesses. I'm having a hard time selling the front page, which was set to per-week, but I had to change it to monthly like the rest of the ads. Not many people seem to be interested in it. Others are telling me "let me see the first few issues" or "come back in a few months" I know they're turning me down, they don't want to say no to me. I really need the front and back pages filled. It's a weekly publication, and it's already Wednesday and I haven't sold 1 ad yet. 

If you have any tips on how to help me, that would be great! If you have any questions, or if I did leave some info out (which I know I did but can't remember what I left out) please feel free to ask. You're help would be greatly accepted. 

Thanks
