Advertising in magazines?

[Lynn Grififth Knives]

I am very seriously considering advertising in Tactical Knives magazine. I currently advertise in Blade magazine (have any of you noticed it?). Which magazines have you advertised in, read the most, or have bought something as a result of the advertising in? If you have advertised in a magazine, how did the magazine treat you? Do you feel like it was worth the money? Any and all comments are appreciated.

Thanks,

Lynn: I think TK would be a good bet for your style of knife. I have had good results and service from them. Nice people, and they do the job right.

R.J.,
Thank you for your response. Your ad is great. How long have you advertised with Tactical Knives? How often do you change your ad? Did you take the photo, or did they?

Thanks again,

i would also put a nice big ad in knives illustrated. i buy that magazine every time it comes out, and usually check into alot of the ads. it's gotta be large, or else no one will respond to it.

Lynn:
1) Seems like forever.
2) they did the ad. can't remember who took the pic!!
3) I don't change it often enough.
4) that size seems to work fine-balances cost and response.
Kathy Robertson (Les's wife-very nice person) does some nice ad layouts, too.

Just do it!
