Contract/Rateholders:
At Classified USA, Inc! we continually seek out ways to reduce your
advertising costs. Many newspapers offer discounted rates to clients
who agree to run a predetermined number of ads over a one year period.
This contract rate may require as few as five display ads. Other newspapers
offer even lower rates if you commit to a rateholder (i.e, if you
run a two or three line ad every day). Rateholders and contract rates
can significantly reduce you advertising expenditures. Your Customer
Service Representative can determine the best contracts and rate holders
for your particular needs.

The Sunday newspaper is usually the most effective choice for advertising.
But in some cases another media will serve you even better. Sometimes
a trade journal of professional magazine can elicit a more targeted

media suggestions that fit your particular needs. In addition, we
can plan long range media buys to make your placements simpler less
