Newsagents, where are you?

I have taken to searching for stationery, magazines, ink and cards using Google on my iPhone when I am away from home. It’s disappointing that local newsagency businesses are not coming up in Google searches.

To be listed is free yet newsagents seem to ignore this vital marketing opportunity. There are no excuses for missing this opportunity.

    I am here, with my vacumn cleaner and dust pan cleaning up oats that are spilling from every 2nd copy of Australian Womens Weekly magazine.
    Do we really need crap like this to sell a magazine!

    I’m with you Jenny, I’m busy holding up the pile of AWW that keeps falling over because of the oats.
    I am wondering if the oats will help my AWW sales as from my supply increase somebody thinks they will

    Put the oats to good use and eat some before work and that way you will have heaps of energy to pick up more tomorrow

    Hey Rick, I didn’t mind the pregnancy mag with the trolley load of freebies, I had a spot up the front and it’s selling ok.
    Shaun’s, I had my oats this morning, out of a big red box, not a magazine.
    This afternoon we removed them out of every magazine, so I now have a neat flat stack of AWW mags and a clean floor!
