How to get better advertising results & find quality help!

Is your company continuing to spend advertising dollars that aren’t working?

Are you still searching for quality help?

This is very common. A way to increase your chances of obtaining results is to advertise several places at once. It takes a company name or advertisement to be seen over and over again to drill this in individuals minds. Why? Everyone is busy and they take what they need from one area – web-site, etc and move on… if they don’t find what they are looking for or aren’t sure – a reminder would be to hear or see your name again, and again and again.

So, here are other forms of advertising and getting the word out that I have thought of…

Advertise with us! Career Mountaineer. (obviously). ha. We specialize in Career & Educational Display ads and were on-line with great rates!

But, also utilize…

Friends, Relatives, Co-Workers – let them know you are looking for staff.

Web-sites – such as Simply Hired (on our site), WesternSlopeHelpWanted.com, Monster, Yahoo and various job boards.

Recruiters/Staffing Agencies – they have applicants waiting for a great opportunity and could save you money overall if they have the right fit.

Workforce Centers – Go to your local workforce center – they always have many resources and applicants that are looking for work.

Radio – Most people listen to the radio and I have to say many companies in Colorado seem to like advertising on the radio as well.

Local Newspapers – If it is a Classified ad – I’d suggest Bolding some text to make YOURS stand out.

When you advertise – make it enticing! Mention the hours (if they are good), benefits, salary and any other perks you can think of and even add! After all, you want to find and keep good help & continue to grow and manage the company.

DON’T GIVE UP! Finding the right candidate will take time. Don’t expect to get immediate results from one ad – no matter where you advertise – it make be unlikely.

We’ve had customers see results right away and we have some that advertise almost every issue and have gotten more applicants than years before. It really is a matter of chance and finding the right person at the right time. But, the suggestions above will help you increase your chances of finding help ASAP!

GOOD Luck and please contact us with any questions or to place an ad in our next edition!

Distribution

We now have our distribution list printed for viewing! Go to our media kit page and scroll down and there will be a link to places AND locations where we now distribute to.

This list is continually being worked on as well. There are probably many others places we are at, but we make sure that the distribution is going well enough to continue before making them an official place of distribution a majority of the time.

Would you like to see more distributed in a specific area? Whether you are a customer, potential customer or job hunter – PLEASE let us know. We will search for you and add locations as needed.

So…. our BLOG question is….

Where would you like to see our newspaper at??? Please let us know a city or a specific area of business.

We would appreciate your responses/comments and are awaiting your replies!

And in your travels… be sure to pick up an issue at any of the locations we have listed as well.

Climb to the top!

Climb to the TOP – think like a 5 year old!

We are building a home (or attempting to) and with the winter season, it definitely has seen its’ share of challenges. We’ve got a big mountain of gravel in front of garage – most of the time it has been a frozen pile that my 5 year old would climb and slide down in the snow. It’s thawed now and she still climbs to the top and this time she brought her small plastic chair and sat right at the top!

My husband laughed and said “to have a mind like a 5 year old”. I, of course, being a concerned, worried mom told her to “be careful so it don’t tip over!”

A few days later I got to thinking… she reached the top – is she really going to let herself tip over? No, of course not!!! She is my daughter after all.

Obviously you may kinda see my point…

Climb High…
Reach High…
Seek a new Challenge (as a 5 year old would)!

And yes…. that involves NO FEAR!

Happy Leap Day!

February 29th, 2008 – Happy Leap Day!

Does it really feel like we have an “extra” day this month? Being in publishing… we are glad we do!! We are always on a mission to find more great employers to advertise with us that we are offering a $29.00 off any 1/4 page or more size ad to all NEW customers!

We are in the process of setting up banner links as well that are available for purchasing at a low rate and our March Special which entails some fun shamrock links (at no charge) to companies advertising with us as well in March!

I’m glad to see the sun is shining today and I hope Spring is on its’ way to STAY!

I also would like to thank and wish EVERY customer and EVERY job hunter that has utilized our new speciality newspaper!

We have a great speciality newspaper, great distribution & some wonderful feedback! NOW is a great day to join the many companies advertising with us! Hop on board!

Have a HAPPY LEAP DAY!

March Advertising…

MARCH is a great time to start recruiting for the spring/summer season ahead of us! Examples… Resorts, Tourist Retail Shops, Restaurants, Construction and so on. Colorado isn’t just busy in the winter with skiing – summer is FULL of adventure too!

Looking for a new job? Part-time or Full-time? It is also a great time for job hunters to attend the many job fairs that are being scheduled. Be sure to continue checking out our current and past issues of companies hiring.
Just a reminder that our next deadline is February 29th for our March 9th Edition and it is sure to be a great month to advertise in!

Check back often, we will begin to start posting on our blog more regularly and we look forward to any comments or suggestions as well.

Have a great weekend!

Welcome to our blog!

We are glad you visited our blog!  I’m fairly new to blogging and didn’t give it much thought about creating one for Career Mountaineer until I re-designed our web-site.   I also tend to have sooo many thoughts, ideas, etc. daily on this newspaper I figured it would be a good place to vent, receive comments and check back on my old notes and thoughts as well!
