What our Advertising Shops say...
Besides the Carolinas, Barlo Media L.L.C also publishes The Country Registers of Arizona, Oregon, Washington & Nebraska. We are lucky to have many loyal advertisers. Here's what some have to say about our papers:
As a new shop, I am looking for all kinds of ways to get the word out about Quilter's Corner Store. When I asked my customers where they would be looking for news about area quilt shops - they pointed me to the Country Register. I have some pretty smart customers! I've been advertising for a few months now and every week I have several new customers tell me they learned about my shop from reading The Country Register. I'd call that advertising dollars well spent. Deb Messina, Owner - Quilter's Corner Store.
I can't tell you how many new customers I get that say they saw my ad in this wonderful newspaper. Keep up the good work! Jane Nelson, Owner - Valhalla Bee Farm.
I have been advertising in The Country Register for many, many years and it is the one print ad that I believe really works! For small town shops, especially ones that have mixed merchandise of a little old, new, handmade it is a great advertising resource! Laurie Owens, Owner - The Whistle Stop Country Store.
