Canadian Super-Portal Launch features YellowPages.ca as the find a business partner

MSN.ca and Sympatico launched their new ‘super-portal’ June 9th, combining two of the most-used sites in Canada into one content rich haven for net users.

What does that mean to our clients?

The site now uses YellowPages.ca for its find-a-business traffic, positioning our clients in front of a huge new audience at no extra charge and with no extra effort.

How can you celebrate the new portal with KS2? KS2 clients know there are 4 ways their prospects can find them online. Each of those just got stronger thanks to the new portal and its switch to YellowPages.ca.

We’re offering a $100 gift certificate to a KS2 YellowPages.ca advertiser for any of our clients (or new clients) who purchase new services from us between now and June 30th.

Add a URL link - take $100 off your next meal. Switch to KS2 hosting services - get $100 off automotive services. You get the idea. Recommend a friend or colleague who’s interested in growing their business, and we’ll give both of you gift certificates.

Some conditions do apply, so call or email our office for details, and remember the deadline. For more information on the portal launch click here.

Today’s Tip: Buy 3 months of Newspaper ads for $850

We know about 250,000 Calgarians regularly use a couple of key local properties online every month. That’s more than double any Calgary paper’s subscription base and offers comparable number of readers as major newspaper readership.

We don’t want you to change your newspaper advertising – as the old saying goes, if it aint broke don’t fix it – but if you are spending thousands of dollars a week on newspaper ads that work, why not target the same size audience for a few hundred dollars a month?

How does it work?

A simple contract gets you started and we’ll even do the creative. If you would like more information on banners contact your KS2 representative or call 228-1800.
