An Ad in in School Newspaper reaches a very receptive audience. There is only 1 ad per page and parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, neighbours and friends all admire the School Newspaper! School Newspapers are produced at no cost to the school, it is all covered by the advertisers- all the school need do is provide the content - we do the lay-out and production. Prices vary according to size, circulation figure and position.

The South African National Circus

Onlinebusiness is the promotional sponsor for the South African National Circus and this offers many opportunities for ongoing exposure - eg you can have an ad in colour on the back page of the A5 cover for the programme or information booklet which contains information about the circus and 6 colouring pictures for children. These booklets are given away wherever the circus performs or does a promotion or by participating advertisers or by OnlineBusiness wherever we go. Many of them are given to Coffee Shops/Garden Centres and libraries to be given to patrons. We produce unlimited quantities of these covers and you can advertise in as many as you like at R250 per 100.

You could also sponsor (or co-sponsor) Dimitri & Nicky for an educational visit to any school, creche or Senior Citizens' Home (They are a most appreciative audience - and a visit usually makes it into the local Newspaper - naming the sponsors, of course!). Cost for an educational visit is R800, ie, two sponsors at R400 each! The sponsors' businesses will also be featured in a half-page ad or article in the programme or souvernier booklet that will be given to all the attendees at the event.

This event can also take the form of an fundraiser for a school as they are free to let the children pay, eg. R5 each for the event, which happens during school hours.

Our Copywriter co-ordinates all promotions with the Circus. please contact her on (021) 856 0884 or at lyzelle@onlinebusiness.co.za for more information.

Promotions & Events

We will join you or organise and co-ordinate any promotion you wish to host or co-host. Whenever we attend a big event like the Wieleskou, Picnic Festival or even a school event with our candyfloss machine, dunktank, clown or with the SA National Circus (see our promotion gallery) - we will promote our members by handing out Notebooks, Newsletters, and any other promotional material. We often get permission from organisers of big events to invite our members to join us at our stall for preset timeslots.

Newsletters.

We can produce Newsletters for any business, club, society or charity. Newsletters are a wonderful way to keep in touch with clients and prospective clients. Like all our other promotional publications, we bring together various complemetary businesses and do one Newsletter covering 4 businesses which is then distributed by each one. The value, of course, is twofold - firstly keeping in touch with you own clients and secondly, getting credible exposure to three other business' clients. Produced on a cost division basis, these Newsletters can cost as little as R300 per business, contain useful or entertaining information pertaining to each business and be produced monthly or quarterly. Newsletters for clubs, societies and charities are 'sponsored' by advertisers and produced at no cost to the organisation.

Anything else you can think of...

If you have an idea for a promotion - let us know and we will make sure you get maximum exposure at minimum cost to you!

All Promotions, Events, Newsletters and Anything Else's are co-ordinated by our copywriter. Contact her at (021) 856 0884 or at lyzelle@onlinebusiness.co.za to discuss your ideas!
