Florist Resource Blog gets Noticed!

Yesterday I got a call from someone with the PR Department from Spotrunner.com. Seems they saw the blog and that they were interested in helping me work with local florist. As you may have read in previous listings Spotrunner is a company which provides cheap TV Advertising on Local Cable Channels. As a florist I wanted to run TV ad's but found it difficult as many company's wanted $10,000 plus to make a commercial then a min. budget of $20,000 a month. However, Spotrunner only charges about $500.00 to modify one of their commercials and you pay for the "spots". In my area I was able to run some ad's for as little as $4.00 a spot. They have a package where you can have TV Commercials running in your local market within weeks for less than $2,000.00. This is an AMAZING way for florist to increase their local business. I ran these ad's in an area where our stores were not doing very well and we saw our foot traffic increase by 20% in the first four weeks! I truly appreciate Spotrunner's help, but I also was very excited to see that their PR department read our florist blog and took the time to call. It is very promising to see that people are reading this florist blog and willing to help. I will be talking to Spotrunner next week and write more on how Florist can start running local cable TV advertising ad's.
