Advertise in Local Messenger
Local Messenger reaches the people who decide what a local business buys: owners and managers of shops, restaurants, home and auto service businesses, and pawn shops. They read us for plays they can use the same week, so they read closely.
Who reads it
Our welcome email asks every new subscriber their type of business (one click), so you can reach all readers or a segment: pawn, restaurants, retail, or home and auto services. Ask us for current subscriber counts, open rates and click rates by segment. We report clicks for every placement.
Formats and starting rates
| Format | What you get | Starting rate |
|---|---|---|
| Primary sponsor | Top slot in one issue: logo, about 100 words, one link | $50 per 1,000 subscribers, minimum $150 |
| Secondary sponsor | Mid-issue slot: 40 to 60 words, one link | 50% to 65% of primary |
| Sponsored article | A labeled article on localmsgr.com plus a mention in the newsletter | About $200 per 1,000 subscribers |
| Sponsored webinar | A co-hosted session for owners; registrants opt in to share their details with you | From $2,000, once the list passes 5,000 |
Segment pricing for the pawn audience is quoted separately. Founding sponsors (our first three) keep their launch rate for six months.
What we don’t sell
Coverage, reviews, rankings, a place on a “best” list, extra emails to our readers, or our subscribers’ email addresses. Every placement is labeled. Read the full advertising and conflicts policy.
