LASSEN VISITORS GUIDE DEADLINES THIS WEEK
The annual Lassen County Visitors Guide deadlines are on Thursday, and there is still time to contact our advertising representatives to reserve your ad space. This full color, glossy stock magazine is distributed weekly to hundreds of locations throughout the community and the surrounding areas, in addition to being available on our website, lassennews.com. Many of our local residents read the publication, too, since it features stories and information on the various activities happening in the county throughout the year. So even if your business isn’t targeting tourists, it is a great opportunity to have your message out year round in a high quality publication. Ad rates start as low as $105, so it is extremely cost effective for having your message be read in 50,000 guides. Plus, professional layout and design is included in the cost of the ad. For a personal consultation, contact Laura, Erika or Teresa at the Lassen County Times office at 530-257-5321 by Feb. 23.
