How and Why to Advertise with NB MOPS

How and Why to Advertise with NB MOPS

If you have a business in New Braunfels, you are probably always looking for ways to get the word out there about what you do.  Advertising is expensive though, huh?!  Well we can offer you lots of exposure on a monthly basis to moms who live in New Braunfels and who shop in New Braunfels too, all at an affordable price.  Plus when you choose to advertise in the MOPS Newsletters, your contributions are really going toward a great cause and truly do make a difference to the Mothers who attend.  So if you are interested, the pricing and contact info is right here.  By the way, if your business is in any way geared towards moms, women, kids or families, then you are an absolute perfect candidate for this!

$30.00 for One Semester (August - December or January - May)

Your business ad (approximately business card size) will be placed in five monthly newsletters and will be handed out to our 50-60 moms per month at each meeting.  In addition, an electronic version will be posted to our blog and our Facebook page, which are accessible to anyone online.  Your electronic ad will have a link back to your website or Facebook page, whatever link you designate.

If you would like to advertise all year, then the cost is $60.00.

Door prizes of all kinds will be accepted in lieu of payment, but arrangements must be made for pick-up/drop-off of the door prize prior to each monthly meeting.

Please feel free to contact the MOPS Publicity Team if you should have any questions at all:

2012-2013 Group Refreshments Schedule

Who's bringing food this month?  Check out the schedule below to find out.  And if it's your turn, don't forget to bring your recipe with you for whatever you made (please don't ever feel badly if you didn't make your contribution, lots of us don't!).  This year we will be collecting all the recipes and giving every mom a recipe "cooklet" or um...booklet at the end of the year.  We will still be voting for the favorite recipes like we have in the past and those will be featured in the final booklet and in the newsletters every month too.  Looking forward to some yummy food!
