Just got letter from school today asking any business owned by parents if they wanted to sponsor a month within the calendar for the school ok it aint much BUT

(A) which month / months do I advertise

(B) would it be worth £25 the for the whole year just for one month knowing Im only gonna get kiddy discos something I dont normally do???

Now obviously I would prefer every month but finances are tight

Why would people only book kids disos just because the ad is in a school calendar, parents have birthdays too & weddings & office parties etc etc........

Your not just going to get kids discos. Getting your name out there for £25 - would be worth it. Think how many people will see it! Plus it's helping the school - don't think you can really lose. :teeth:

Past expirience has led me to this conclusion from 10 years ago when I did it for someone else

either way which MONTH would you chose

Yes agree with january but once that month has gone your folded over for the rest of that year??????? and usually forgot about?????? its difficult decision I know But the faster I get a majority the better

But they're 6 months apart. What about quarterly?

At £25, is it really worth spending so long thinking about it? Just pick a month :D

Ask them if they will do you a special deal for Feb, as it's only 28 days :teeth: :teeth: :teeth:

If it's only £25 for the whole year what harm can that do?

Go for it

Confused me too.

If it were me I'd probably purchase 2 months (March & Sept)

OK lets put it this way I would not pick the last 5 months as it seems obviously busy but feb is renown to be quiet and a month with 31 days would seem better jan soon being forgot about which leaves me ???? oh hell forgot the rhyme LOL

id go for jan feb or march same reasons as below/above first to be seen but jan is usually a bit of a wobbley time remember as people are recovering from that ridiculous commercialized extravaganza that is christmas..... for me last year last week in jan and feb were good booking times.

then prob sept oct when people are looking at christmas and next years wedding season.
