For businesses that want to research the benefits of advertising with Yazabo we have provided the following article for you to read in the hope that it will answer any question you may have.
A Yazabo member is someone who has purchased a Yazabo discount card, each card is valid for 12 months and enables the holder to redeem and claim all promotions and discounts that are advertised at Yazabo.com
London as we all know is a very transient city. Every week there are hundreds of
tourists, backpackers
and people relocating from various parts of the UK as well as those who are arriving from countries like Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada, the USA and Europe. The Yazabo membership card is marketed and sold to this group of people.
These people are generally young, skilled or semi skilled professionals between the ages of 18-30 who come to live and work in London for between one to two years.
As a demographic Yazabo members are desirable for the following reasons:
Because Yazabo members are new to the city it means that they will be actively seeking out many of the types of products and services that your business has to offer. As they are not existing customers of your competitors the likelihood of attracting and securing there business is very high.
Because Yazabo members are young skilled professionals in full time employment, with little or no financial commitments it means that a very large percentage of their income is disposable. This greatly increases your chances of "up selling" to them as well as receiving repeat business from them in the future.
Providing you deliver a high quality product and/or service your company will inevitably benefit from word of mouth advertising when they recommend your business to their friends, family and work colleagues.
As each discount and promotion is unique, the cost of each advertising campaign will vary accordingly. However, each business that advertises on Yazabo pays a £100 registration fee. This covers the set up cost, which includes designing, building and maintaining your section of the web page for the duration of the contract.
Each business is allocated a full page for their advert, classified in the relevant section.
Advertising space is then sold by the month and can be purchased up to 12 months at a time.
Prices start from as little as £10 per month.
The exact amount will depend on the type of business you have, the discount and promotion you are offering and the length and duration of the advert.
Yazabo has 3 distinct advantages over traditional forms of advertising such as magazines, newspapers or electronic media (television/radio)
Price -
Traditional forms of advertising are extremely expensive. This prevents many small businesses who offer a better standard of product or service from competing with larger companies.
Yazabo is great value for money because we are able to sell our advertising space at a reduced rate. We can afford to do this because as a business we also generate money from our membership sales and this enables us to offset the normally higher prices we would have to charge in order to make a profit. This gives us a competitive edge and makes it affordable for smaller business to advertise with us.
Level of Interest - The problem with traditional forms of advertising is that a large percentage of the viewers, readers or listeners that you are paying to advertise too will have little or no interest in the product or service that you are selling.
By advertising your business on Yazabo you know the exact demographic to whom you are advertising. You also have a captivated audience because all the people who view the advert will be paid up members who are actively looking for the type of discounts that you will be offering.
By advertising with Yazabo you get direct access to quality buyers not quantity browsers.
Measuring Success - With Traditional forms of advertising it is often hard to actually measure how successful a specific advertising campaign is.
With Yazabo because the discount will only be redeemable upon display of the Yazabo membership card, as a business you have an effective way to accurately measure the success of each campaign.
