Tamra answered you very well, and gave you some excellent
resources. I looked at your site (FP 2.0) and noted your business
lends itself to something like Coastal Tool & Supply.
Don't forget ads in discussion lists, which can be good for your
business. Coastal Tool & Supply http://www.coastaltool.com/ in
CT spends $50k a year on Net advertising, for which they get
reimbursed $47k in co-op funds and they generate $100-$110k per
month in sales from the Net. They sell power tools to consumers.
Todd Mogren is Sales Director, and has posted some interesting
stuff on their success to a couple of lists. He has sponsored
the ETD, EMD, I-Sales and others. He has some good things to say
about his success with banner ads at the E-Tailer Digest
archives, in particular at...
http://www.gapent.com/etailer/archives/0025.html
http://www.gapent.com/etailer/archives/0029.html
http://www.gapent.com/etailer/archives/0059.html
In #25 he states his success with text ads and in 29 with banner
ads. Feel free to search the archives for more information, as
this is a hot topic. 59 is an example of his ad. The searchable
archives are at....

To find the above I used "co-op coastal"
Good luck
George
