Advertising updates
Checking current headlines…
West Coast News
Selected business announcements, specials, launches and community-interest stories can be developed into clearly identified business features and linked back to the business website.
Advertising Intelligence
ARQS can review positioning, creative, offers, click-through paths and campaign performance so each placement becomes measurable rather than just another listing.
TOWNLINE BUSINESS FEATURE
First feature complimentary. Continue for $39/month.
$39 / month after acceptance
A business can receive an initial complimentary Townline feature. After that first feature, the business may choose to continue the program for $39 per month. No recurring charge begins unless the business accepts the continuation offer.
Included in the complimentary first feature
Public business listing, direct website link, city/category placement, a short factual business profile or current special, and a Townline/West Coast News feature where editorially appropriate.
Standard — $39/month
One monthly business feature with website click-through, city/category placement, current special or announcement submission, and West Coast News consideration.
Premium — $69/month
Priority placement, premium featured treatment, approved logo/banner display, up to four updates or specials per month, stronger Townline visibility and priority West Coast News consideration.
Logo & brand assets
Townline may link to the company website from an unclaimed directory record. Business logos and supplied brand graphics are displayed only after the business authorizes their use.
Operating workflow
- Find and verify the business.
Use public business information and the company’s official website for the name, category, address, website and public contact details. - Publish the basic Townline listing.
The listing is factual and does not imply sponsorship, partnership or endorsement. - Create the first complimentary feature.
Feature a current special, useful local announcement, event, new product/service or business profile with a direct website link. - Send the business a $0 feature notice.
Show them what was published and invite corrections, logo approval and future submissions. - Offer optional continuation at $39/month.
Only after the business accepts do ARQS/Townline send a payable invoice or recurring-payment link. - Label paid placements clearly.
Once active, use labels such as Featured Business, Sponsored Feature or Featured Partner. Never label a business as a sponsor before it opts in.
