maybe, maybe not. depends a lot on the format of the
publication (3 columns, 4 colums etc) you are aiming
at. a full page full colour ad on a right hand page of
the leading national newspaper in you country or area
is the only way to tell them you have arrived.
a new set lunch menu can be launched and run
continuously from a quarter page ad on the top right
of a weekly entertainment magazine.
all depends on what you are selling, who your market
is and what you want to tell them.
by the way this is a fantastic list.
