Factors of
Importance
in planning your advertising campaign.
COVERAGE: For many years the "South China Morning Post has beon regarded as the leading nowspaper in Hongkong and South China, It has by far the largest circulation, penetrating to the Outports and inland.centres, "The Hongkong Telegraph" enjoys a similar pre-eminence as the loading afternoon
newspaper.
IN THE HOME:
The newspaper that pro- duces profitable results to the advertiser is the newspaper that is road and ro-road by the family. The S. C. M, Post reaches most families with morning- tos. Similarly, "The Hongkong Telograph" is the afternoon favourite with the majority.
LOCAL PRESTIGE: The judgment of "tho man on the spot" in respect to media selection is. based on sound knowledge and can be followed with confidence. Year in and year out leading local firms expand the greater part of their allocations in the "South China Morning Post" and "The Hongkong Telegraph:"
