Performance Auto & Sound ads

I have been getting a lot of calls from dealers in the US in comparison from last year. Shane’s been great, Jason was good too but he’s not there any longer.
Some things I haven’t been overly impressed with but there’s a lot more I could be doing to make there job easier as well.

That’s Industry members people stopped posting info in here.
Ssmaster, thanks for the info I totally agree I have been pretty much getting the same feedback.. Dealers are to busy to read the rag, very few have waiting rooms so it ends up in the crapper.

I've been looking at a lot of Primedia mags as they offer huge discounts, but they could not give me any info on readership in Canada...

Last primedia add folder I have costs for a full page was:
10,365 USD for one add and if you were in all 7 it dropped to 7,705( 49,000 USD?)
That was for Car audio and Electronics.
I'd rather throw that money at the dealers, at least they are a selling my product and supporting the consumer that buys our brand.
