No. For me that would equate to R200 & by the time it got here it would retail at R400. They have to find a cheaper way 'cos that would just outprice them. I could get a book for hald the price. Doesn't make good financial sense unfortunately ;-(

I have no problem paying more but I still want the ads! They are just as important and inspiring to me as the articles themselves!

The content you have provided is pretty interesting and useful and I will surely take note of the point you have made in the blog.

While I was browsing the Internet for ways to boost my website exposure, I read about how effective offline media is for getting additional exposure. Since online media advertising has become so competitive, I thought I will complement the online marketing efforts of my products with offline media advertising like newspaper and magazine advertising. This can be the best way to get a wider coverage for a website and draw additional traffic. I think it is a great marketing strategy to use both online and offline advertising to get more customers.

I thought this information might be useful for anyone looking for solutions to get me-ore traffic to their website.

I belong to CGOA, so I get “Crochet!” mag. I was surprised to see ads for things that are not crochet related in any way in the latest issue. Inserted in the middle of the magazine was an 8 page booklet for “Woman Within” clothes. CLOTHES. Sweatpants and nightgowns and these dreaded elastic waistband “jeans,” if you could call them that, which were straight out of 1982. It was the first tangible sign of trouble (in my eyes) that I've seen.

I think this is a very relevant post as well, especially considering the current issues surrounding designer compensation for designs in the knitting/crochet industry. Am I the only one that sees the correlation between publications not being able to pay designers huge sums for designs and subscriptions prices around $20 US for a *whole year*? I miss Blueprint and will miss Craft and Domino terribly. Consumers demand *cheaper, faster, more* then cry foul when the paper quality is bad or claim to be surprised when the magazine cannot pay huge sums out to contributors. It is the WalMart effect right in front of us. It seems Craft tried to circumvent these problems and it — regretfully — didn't work

In my ad experience, the company we choose has been really wonderful and supportive to work with. I think if an educated advertiser picks a company they feel good about, they will not find themselves used or unappreciated.
