About this Site
Here at Adsales People, we're real people, who still sell for a living, having
sold space since the mid 1980s (Can ANYBODY really be THAT old?)
The moderators of the Community, and the authors of 'Selling ADSPACE Made SIMPLE' (the e-book for adsales
people), are Roy and Ann. We've sold advertising space in newspapers, trade
press magazines, web sites, and 'one-shot' booklets. We've sold space for $23.75
(for a small classified ad) and for £19,640.00 (for a series of full colour
pages).
We've sold ad space in the U.S.A., the U.K., and in Europe.
We've even sold space in Australia and South Africa (by phone, for an
international trade publication).
During that time we've won prizes for
breaking sales quotas which include holidays to the Middle East, jewellery,
'Gold circle' membership and the other rewards for making outstanding sales.
We've made friends of many customers and created terrific relationships
with some of the people who have advertised with the publications we
represented.
BUT, during this time we've also been slandered, libelled, been sworn
at, had doors slammed in our faces, and been blamed by unhappy advertisers when 'our' adverts failed to
sell 'their' goods (no matter that the goods were shoddy or the advert itself
was lousy)....
We've also lost sales which we should
have made (through saying the wrong thing at the wrong time) and made
'lucky' sales which we didn't deserve (by saying the right thing at the right
time - by mistake!).
In short, we've been there, and still have the scar
tissue to prove it.
We've learned about selling advertising space the
hard way. We can help you to sell more space by using our experience -
without having to go through our
experiences.
