Bulletin Boards

Posted by admin

One of our most popular products that get you noticed!

Recently we have transformed some of the nasty (but popular) bulletin boards we are all familiar with into “Business Advertising Centers”.

This however has been somewhat controversial. They are no longer open and free to post an advertisement or business card. They are now sealed, locked units.

At the bottom of the page you can see a few examples before and after.

Most people received them well, and I even had several businesses come to me during the installations asking me “How do I get my business in there?”. They realized the problems before that as soon as something was posted, someone else would come along and take down their ad just to use a thumbtack, OR because they competed with them/you and wanted to make sure their ad (not yours) got seen.

Some from the community however feel as though they are cheated, I ask how can you be cheated when you had the boards for free for almost 50 yrs.? For the low costs to place an ad in t

he board, it actually cost less than the free ads as ads no longer get removed by competitors or people wanting

your thumbtacks. Nor do your ads get covered by someone who wants to put 20 of their ads on the bulletin board.

Paid advertisers can now rest easy knowing their ad is displayed, they no longer have to waste hours of time or gallons of gasoline driving around to check their ads.

Bottom line though, for every 1 complaint I receive 90 compliments.

We currently have 3 bulletin boards around the Kern Valley at Isabella Market, KV Bottle Shop and Wofford Heights Chevron.

If you’re the owner of a store and would like one of our bulletin boards installed, or if you own a business and would like to advertise in them please cal Shawn Gilbert at 760-417-2069 or use our online contact form.
