Senior News Advertiser Testimonials

Chicagoland’s Senior News is eagerly received each month by our readers. They, as well as our advertisers, have shared their opinions with us over the years. Here are some of the highlights:

Among the items we picked up at the Active Senior Expo was a copy of Senior News. After I read and marked SIX different articles to cut out and file, I realized what a GOLD MINE of news was contained in your newspaper. The articles were right on target, informative, and very readable.

I think Senior News is very informative and I thoroughly enjoy it.

Virginia A./Frankfort

I want to thank you for the last issue of Senior News. It addresses current issues that pertain to senior problems in daily life.

I had the privilege of reading Senior News at my sister’s house. The newspaper is informative and provocative. I’m looking forward to the next issue.

Naomi S./Chicago

We have tried many types of media over the years including radio, TV, direct mail and even other newspapers. The only tried and true venue we have come to rely on is your Senior News. The reputation you have earned in the Chicagoland area is a plus, also. We love it when we hear from our travelers, “We saw it in the Senior News!”

The Senior News has allowed us to reach our target market efficiently and our customer database has increased significantly. People are always telling us “we saw you in the Senior News”. Our residents enjoy reading your paper!

We have been receiving phone responses exceeding 200/250 per month and we are converting 60 to 80 of these responses to new customers. We have tried a few of the other so-called “senior contact papers” and our results were disappointing. Rest assured, you’ve got us as an advertiser for a long time to come.

After more than 10 years advertising in Chicagoland’s Senior News, I just wanted to relay that requests for our tour catalogs continue to be stead and frequent. I have found that keeping our ad in for every issue and using the same design has been very effective for company recognition. In addition to the individual travelers, we have many planners, travel agents and senior center activity coordinators respond to our ads.

Pete Shumway/Mid-America Tours, Inc.

We’ve tried other papers, we’ve tried radio too, but the Senior News is the one that really comes through for us. I think it’s because you have such a large distribution and because you specifically reach our audience. With the help of Senior News we’ve gone from being a local act performing in banquet halls to becoming a nationally known act performing in a major tourist destination.
