billboards are that cheap?
i actually think they're significantly more expensive than that, if only based on the fact that there's one that is mounted in someone's back yard, near the shop i used to work at. this allows it to be seen on rt42......and rumor has it that the owning company pays them somewhere in the ballpark of $1,000/month to have it there.
No, not around here. Part of a marketing bid my company won a couple of years ago included 2 billboards, one large, one small. Grand total? $2200 per month I had to pay, about $1300/mo for the large one and $900 for the small one. This was on top of print media, radio, websites, etc. Unfortunately, this was about the time the market started heading south, and we sold very few homes, even with a massive marketing campaign. Fortunately, we sold a couple and were able to get out at the end of the contract and walk away only having lost about $25K total.
<---- looking forward to the day very very soon that he closes down shop and doesn't own a real estate company any more.
But anyway, I digress....
Time for lunch... I'm now 1 out of the 6, at least for the next few minutes....
