UNCLE ANDY'S DIGEST

The Most Unusual Digest in America

Promote your business, Reach your target market with GUERRILLA intensity

Promote your business with the guerrilla intensity it deserves. In an economy that has proven not very kind to small business, marketing efforts must be taken to a higher level than ever before. Take your customers by surprise, and showcase your business in unusual ways.

In 1982 Jay Conrad Levinson coined the term Guerrilla Marketing in his best selling book “Guerrilla Marketing”. By definition, guerrilla marketing is any of a number of unconventional methods of marketing with minimal resources for maximum results; any marketing campaign that uses non-mainstream tactics and locations.

Engaging potential customers, connecting with them on a human level, and creating a lasting relationship are all paramount to a winning marketing strategy. You and your brand are your company, not the products that you sell. Integrity on a personal level, and repeated exposure to your branding will pay off.

As important as it is to create a highly effective brand, the commitment to putting that brand in the forefront of your markets mind is infinitely more important. A great quote from the book Guerrilla Marketing is “Mediocre marketing with commitment works better than brilliant marketing without commitment. What makes marketing work? If you were looking for a one-word answer to that question, that word is commitment.”

If you want business you need to be seen. Your commitment to a well-rounded, well-planned guerilla marketing campaign, will utilize print media that strategically ties into various other forms of advertising. If applicable, your website and social media campaigns should be promoted through your print ads, giving your potential customers the further information they desire, and your brand maximum exposure.

Ad repetition constantly reminds interested buyers that you have what they are looking for. Furthermore longevity of your advertising campaign helps establish trust in your brand, and your commitment to your product or service. Be diligent in your marketing efforts and you will establish yourself as the go to business when their need arises.

How often do you have a thought that is not accompanied by a visualization? Does something you can pick up and hold make a more personal connection? Print advertising offers a tangible, visual, and affirmable vehicle for your brand.

Get creative in your branding, inundate your target market, and you will be remembered when your consumer is ready to buy.

Get seen, be recognized, and remember…

“Doing business without advertising is like winking in the dark. You know what you’re doing, but nobody else does!”

Our latest testimonial

Joe & Mike Adkins tell it like it is...

Smile Again Dentures has used several forms of advertising over the years. Using Uncle Andy’s Digest has proven to give us the best bang for our buck. It did so early and often and still does to this day. We like the fact that people pick up the Digest and hang on to it. A lot of people that might see or hear a commercial on TV or the radio and it’s forgotten almost immediately. Uncle Andy’s hangs around all month and we know our ad is seen over and over throughout the month. People from all walks of life come in regularly and mention seeing our ad in the Digest. We hear all the time how our clients like seeing the father and son team. Working with the Uncle Andy’s staff is easy and we really enjoy the extra stuff they do to promote our business! We believe any business spending money on advertising should be spending it with Uncle Andy’s Digest.

Sea 40 Japanese Bistro

If you haven’t checked out Sea 40 Japanese Bistro yet, you’re missing out!

Prepare yourself for an entertaining evening. Grab a few friends, make a reservation, and get ready to have an absolute blast!! The chef entertains you with his spatulas, which also double as musical instruments, while cooking all your food Hibachi style right before your eyes. From flipping food for you to (hopefully) catch in your mouth and then maybe wash it down when he squirts sake into your mouth from a distance. You’ll be amazed, you’ll clap and cheer and you’ll leave feeling entertained and satisfied. Not to mention the beautiful decor you’ll see throughout the entire restaurant. It was beautifully done and we believe they will do very well. From Hibachi to Sushi with a late-night lounge, they have something for everyone. We welcome them to our family of advertisers within the pages of Uncle Andy’s Digest.
