It Works!
Green Pages is now in its 22nd year and is growing and changing constantly. We can’t help but notice that in recent years the sort of things you can find inside Green Pages are becoming more and more popular with people wishing to make ethical choices central to the way they live their lives. Without a doubt, Green Pages is no longer an ‘alternative’ publication.
Our print run is increasing every year, the number of pages has gone up, and we are getting more and more places approaching us to be stockists. Many of our advertisers have been with us continuously for many years. Here’s what some of them said in our 2006 survey:
- “It’s so much better than Yellow Pages for getting to my customers, and it is so much more affordable!”
- “Getting direct responses to my advertising is very important to me - my Green Pages ads easily pay for themselves every year”
- “I find Green Pages is an invaluable resource, both personally and professionally”
We do many things to make Green Pages more effective, such as supporting local events (including Oxford Fair Trade Day in 2006, the Big Green Market in 2007), appearing in the local media, producing and distributing publicity and point-of-sale materials.
