N2 Publishing Worst advertiser ever! Davenport Iowa

Hey Michael,

Did you ever get an update about whether or not residents read the publications? For us, we are confident that they do. The content in the publication is generated by the residents themselves, so we wouldn't even have a magazine if it wasn't for the residents. If you haven't yet gone door to door, we'd encourage you to at least flip through some copies of the magazine and take note of how many people are featured -- that should be even a small testament of how many people are participating in the publication.

Beyond that, we'd like to address your concerns that you didn't gain any business in the area. We're glad to hear that you track your business so you know how people found you -- that's really helpful. For us, though, what we aim to do is get your business recognized through word of mouth advertising. The publication works by putting you in front of the most powerful consumers in your area month after month over a period of time, which helps your business build trust in the community. This trusted, established brand in the community allows word of mouth advertising to take place, which is unfortunately very difficult to track.

We realize your partnership with us is now over, but we did want to take the opportunity to put our perspective out there. Wishing nothing but the best for you and your business, N2

 My complaint wasn't regarding any Guarentees. Obviously N2 Guarentees that they cannot guarantee you anything in return of your investment. That is exactly why they try to rope businesses into 3 year contracts. I was at least smart enough to do a 1 year trial run in just one of their 3 publications in my area. A heads up to the N2 company. Advertising agency's that cannot provide a decent return on a business's investment will not continuing pouring money into your enterprise. Warning to investors, N2 is proud of their no guarentee policy. There are only so many bridge available to burn until the money train comes to a full stop. Good luck with your business. My business will still be around the next ten years and I will happily not be investing in any N2 advertising. Take that to the bank.

Thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention. It's our goal -- with the nearly 30,000 advertisers we serve across the country -- that our arrangement is clear. Like most companies in the advertising industry, we make no guarantees as to what to expect from your advertising. TV, radio, Groupon, etc... none of these companies or vehicles for advertising promise any kind of results. We are no different. We are happy to discuss your concerns in more detail.
