Q: Where can I find/pick-up an issue of Coffee News?
A:Because Coffee News is strategically located wherever people eat, hang out, or wait for a service, you can pick up an issue almost anywhere in the New York City area.
Approximately 80% of our distribution locations are restaurants, coffee houses, take-out eateries, etc. The remaining 20% of our locations are places where people are known to have a bit of a wait, such as hair salons and doctors offices.
To see the exact locations where you can pick up a free copy of Coffee News, visit the distribution area of our site.
Q: How often do you publish a new issue of Coffee News?
A: Once a week, every week, we drop of a stack of freshly published Coffee News issues to each and every one of our distribution locations. That's 52 new issues a year!
Q: How long has Coffee News been in existence?
A:
Coffee News was founded in Winnipeg, Canada in 1988. It is now distributed in over 900 cities and 50 countries worldwide.
Q: Why should my business advertise in Coffee News?
A: There are many, many reasons why businesses advertise in Coffee News. A full list of the benefits of advertising in Coffee News can be found in the Advertising section of our site, but here are just a few of the reasons that we hear most often:
We are less expensive than any other type of media advertising, from TV to radio, from newspapers to phone books.
Coffee News is distributed in the local area of your business, so you get the biggest bang-for-your-buck in terms of targeting local consumers, who are more likely to patronize your business.
Once you have decided to advertise in Coffee News, we do not let any other businesses of your type to advertise in our publication. For example, if your hardware store decides to advertise with Coffee News, no other hardware stores will be allowed to advertise.
All ads are the same size, and all ads are automatically moved to a different location in every new issue. Therefore you never have to worry about your ads getting passed over or swallowed up by bigger ads, which happens often in other types of print media.
Q: Who can advertise in Coffee News?
A:
Any business is allowed to advertise in Coffee News, except for the types of businesses where you can pick up an issue of Coffee News. We never allow restaurants, coffee shops, or hair salons to advertise in Coffee News. Although most of these businesses would love to have an ad, they are disallowed automatically.
This is due to the following notion: A Burger King ad in Coffee News, for example, would have every McDonald's refusing to carry Coffee News. No company would ever allow their competitor to advertise on their own business premises, and we understand that.
However, we do offer all businesses that carry/distribute Coffee News a free location listing in the Distribution section of our website.
Q: Do I have to design the ad myself?
A:
No way! We do all of the work for you.
After we gather some information from you about your business, we work with an advertising/graphic design expert to create an ad specifically for your business. We will work and rework the ad until you love it. And ad production is free!
Q: Can I change an ad every now and again?
A: Of course. There is never a charge for minor ad changes, which you can email or phone-in directly to our office.
Q: How much is an ad? A:For all information regarding Coffee News pricing, please send us a message or call our offices at (917) 860-5811.
Please keep in mind that the longer you wish to advertise in Coffee News, the larger the per-week discount you will receive.
Q: How do I pay for the ad?
A: We accept Visa, Mastercard, and personal checks. Billing can be done monthly, quarterly, or annually.
Q: Can you please explain the contest that you include in each one of your issues?
A:Every week a tiny cartoon mug of coffee is hidden in one of our ads.
If you find the cup, send an email to Contest@CoffeeNewsNYC.com (please include your name, that ad in which you found the cup, and the location where you picked up that specific issue of Coffee News). We will then enter your name into a bi-weekly drawing, where the randomly selected winner will receive $50!
This contest is not only fun for our readers, but it's great for our advertisers too. This is because it encourages readers to look through all of the ads in order to find the little mug of coffee.
Q: Can I subscribe to Coffee News?
A: You cannot currently subscribe to Coffee News, but you can always pick up a free copy at any of our distribution locations.
However if your business decides to advertise in Coffee News, then we offer you the option of receiving a free copy of Coffee News (by USPS mail) every week for as long as you choose to advertise with us.
If you have any further questions, please send us an message and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
