Tips for a better campaign:

Advertising in 3-4 digital marketing channels gives the best results

By choosing the most relevant marketing channels, you can effectively reach your customers and generate engagement. This ensures a cohesive campaign and increases the chances of success. If the local newspaper you choose is very small, it may be wise to avoid geo-targeting. Readers of the newspaper are already interested in local events, regardless.

The reader is valuable to you

Readers of newspapers and magazines are highly educated and have an income above average. 7 out of 10 people between the ages of 15-24 read the newspaper daily, and they are particularly enthusiastic about the local newspaper. 83% of all Norwegians read the newspaper every day.

How long should an advertisement run?

Online newspapers and magazines are perfect channels for busy marketers. On social media, we constantly need to create new content, but in online newspapers, the same ads can run for a long time. There is, of course, a difference between sales campaigns and brand-building campaigns, but a brand-building campaign with a strong message should run for at least 6 months.

Brand recognition

For your brand to place itself in people's consciousness, your customers must see the ads many many times. Ads that are creative, capture the customer's attention, and leave a strong impression have the best effect. The design/expression in the ads should remain consistent over time. This means that design, colors, and the use of the logo must be recognizable from ad to ad. Over time, the customer recognizes your ad in a fraction of a second.

Use multiple formats

We recommend using at least three different formats. The various formats are suitable for desktop, tablets, or mobile devices. With multiple formats, you get more impressions, and you reach people in different situations, such as at work (PC) and again on the couch (mobile) in the evening.

The most popular formats are Board (320x250 px), Netboard (580x400 px), and Topboard (980x300px).

We recommend using three different formats to get the best distribution of your ads.

We often believe that advertising in digital newspapers is expensive, but the price is only slightly higher than social media and is determined by supply and demand.
