Talk about changes, we made a big change - effective immediately - in the way we are pricing our banner ads. Through July 4th we will be discontinuing the $10 per week "surcharge" on the cost of the first two weeks of banner ads - meaning that REGULAR BANNER ADS will run just $30 per week and SUPERSIZE just $50 per week. 2-week minimum still applies on all advertising. Write me for details - a few other changes apply. SIDEBAR ads continue at the same $25/week cost. Members of CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE are also eligible for additional discounts - write for details at banners@svhamstra.com
And we are making some changes in the pricing of our 2009-2010 memberships as well, as we enter our 20th year of publishing (13 years on the web). New memberships go on sale on May 1st in conjunction with the first announcement of our CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE Birthday Party in July.
These changes are being made to make advertising more affordable and/or valuable for cabaret performers and cabaret fans in these rather troubled times, just when you need to promote more to try to fill those rooms. Stay tuned.
I can only keep CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE (3 newsletters a week, 3 websites and a blog) going if folks join as members and/or purchase banners and ads. I am not a wealthy person, and what little extra funds I had were spent long ago to keep CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE going during previous troubled times. So, I have to depend on you - and need to set my prices to what you can afford.
