Advertiser's Views

We want to let you know that we are very pleased with the “Valley Stuff 4 Sale” ad that you developed for our new business. It was very professional and extremely well done. If only everyone was as thorough and talented as you are, advertising would be a whole lot easier. Our ad placement in the paper combined with the ad itself was perfect! Thank you again for your help in launching our new business and for your professionalism.

Being a Desert Ridge resident who also has a media buying service, I just wanted to let you know that I think your paper is terrific and I hope to send you interesting information on our clients to only make your paper bigger, better and even more enjoyable to read, which is going to be hard to top! Thank you for taking the time and effort in such a fun, entertaining and informative publication!

TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes has been the most productive and effective advertising I have ever done. I have received more calls and sold more packages from my TatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes ads than from all of the other advertising I have done combined. I was amazed to find out just how many people read this paper. And since the expense is so comparatively small, I have really gotten a lot of “bang for my buck.” Thanks, TST/CST!

You and your team have done it right. You have created a publication with local issues and topics of interest that is reader friendly. The results are apparent in the remarkable growth in TST/CST circulation, an increase that has benefited both your expanded readership and your loyal advertisers.

Advertising in TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes has provided me with a consistent stream of business right from the start. Other sources of advertising have cost me considerably more with a lower return. The people that respond to my advertising in this paper seem to be genuine in their interest level, which I believe comes from the quality of the content. Thanks for all of your help. I enjoy working with you very much. I think the trouble I have working with the other publications comes from the fact that they can’t touch your customer service.

You have just created an ad for me in TheTatumSunTimes/ CITYSunTimes. Thank you for your beautiful work! I am amazed at what you came up with and thankful that I didn’t think I could “create” my own ad. You are absolutely magic! I feel like the font you picked for my name represents me well...feminine yet strong, and the way you “fuzzed out” the edges of my picture is totally my personality...not fuzzy, but kind, warm, and genuine, while staying crisp and clear as well. Please know that this is a heartfelt thanks. A small businessperson like myself does not have money to drop into a hole. You and your staff have done more than I could have dreamed. I have enjoyed my first print advertising experience because you have taken a genuine interest in helping me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I look forward to working with you in the future months.

I recently received my July issue of TheTatumSunTimes/ CITYSunTimes and was delighted to see so much coverage of the Valley's burgeoning art scene - and the Theatre world, in particular. So many new residents move into your target area and it's imperative that they know that the Phoenix area is not the cultural wasteland they feared. Instead, it is a thriving, exciting place to be with a wide variety of arts opportunities for all! What a pleasure to read a paper that understands the importance the Arts play in enriching our lives! Thanks!

Arizona Jewish Theatre Co., Phoenix

 

Many thanks for the coverage you gave to DFT [Desert Foothills Theater]. It’s greatly appreciated. Your publication continues to provide its readers with some of the best community arts coverage. We shall be taking another six ads on a monthly basis.

I have many business owners ask me about advertising in TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes. I assure them that for the extensive local exposure you get and the cost of advertising it’s a
great deal! I’ve used many of the local mailers and have not gotten even remotely the response that I get from TST/CST. Keep up the good work!

Since we opened our start-up business we realized the need for advertising. We contacted TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes due to its close proximity to our Scottsdale business and its circulation along the Tatum Corridor. What we found was a very professional and helpful staff that took the time to understand our advertising needs. The results have paid off. Each month, they contact us for updates and make certain that all details are proofread and correct. The extra customer service is truly appreciated. “BRIO” means spirit in Italian. TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes understands the importance of our changing creative needs. We look forward to working together in the future.

– Diane Sanborn, Director, BRIO Fine Arts Center

 

I would like to commend TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes for their outstanding work. The graphic arts department and sales representatives have been dependable, friendly and give you
nothing less than what you ask for and oftentimes more! TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes offers the small businesses in Arizona a way to effectively market in a regional newspaper at affordable costs with quality work. They also offer flexible contracts that allow you to make changes at no additional costs; plus the staff is readily available by e-mail or phone. Although they are a growing business, the staff maintains a personal level of customer service. For quality, affordable and effective marketing I highly recommend TheTatumSunTimes/CITYSunTimes.

I have been advertising in TheTatumSunTimes/ CITYSunTimes for almost two years now. It is clear to me that my ad is being noticed.
I like the idea that it is in the same place and in a spot easy to find.
I doubled the size of my ad and feel like it is the best spent advertising money in my budget. Thanks for being around TST/CST!!!
