Advertising Information
NOTE: Ads placed here do NOT get
placed in our Library (soapnuts.com), but on our Yahoo Groups Mailing
List.
Funds collected from advertisers will be
used expressly for the maintenance and upkeep of our list and library.
Growth increase has made this a necessity, not for filling of personal
coffers.....
Why should you advertise with us?
Your ad will be viewed by a large
audience. Our mailing list group is celebrating our 6th anniversary
this year.
We do not consider ourselves members
of an industry, but a community. Long standing membership is common.
If you pride yourself on your customer service and high quality
products, more than likely you will have return business from
'soapnut' members.
Our mailing list is very
active......over 100 posts daily are common, averaging 3000 messages a
month. A great number of those posts are centered around finding good
suppliers and ingredients.
Ads are posted once each week throughout
the year, typically on Mondays so that our members have enough time to
browse the ads and contact the vendors during the week while
businesses are open and operating. I'm not committing myself to
Mondays, but ads will be posted at the beginning of the week. These
ads are only posted to our mailing list group members.
Available to business owners
only!
How to get your money's worth out of advertising with us-All
yearly subscriptions paid in full will be allowed a bonus ad
monthly at the end of a 3 month minimum time frame. We do enforce the
3 month limit in order to protect our members, you must prove yourself
to be a worthy supplier both in product and customer service. After
your 3 month anniversary date, you will be allowed to send in 1
special ad per month for a total of 9 months. This is to allow you to
post 'specials, co-ops, new items, sales, discounted, dis-continued
items' in addition to your regular ad if you do not want to change it.
This offer is only available to those paid advertisers in good
standing that have paid for a years subscription.
