Description

the ads in each issue looking for the "Lucky I's". When it comes to advertising, you might say Our Iowa mixes business with pleasure. Advertising in this one-of-a-kind magazine is a sound business investment because we make it fun for subscribers to read the ads. You see, advertisers have the option of paying for their ads in part with their products and services... which are given to our readers each issue. For example, an ice cream manufacturer paid for a portion of its ad in cash, and the balance of it in ice cream—they're giving away a gallon of ice cream each month for a year, delivered right to the winner's home! Likewise, the owner of a bed-and-breakfast is paying in part by giving away a free night's stay (with "celebrity treatment"!). Now, here's where the fun comes in for readers: We hide a "Lucky I" in three of the ads, and readers who find them have a chance to win a prize in our "Lucky I Contest" drawing after each issue. The hidden I's are a tiny version of the "i" from the word Iowa in the Our Iowa logo. They could be hidden anywhere in any of the ads (but only in the ads, not in the articles). They could be in the body copy... next to a headline…by the address or company logo, etc. We're not kidding either when we say these I's will be hidden. We want it to be a challenge to find them, which adds to the fun for readers and increases the amount of time they spend studying your ad to find them. (We've hidden one of these I's on this Web page just to show you how the contest works. Can you find it?) There isn't another magazine that we're aware of that offers such incentives for reading your ads. So contact us today to reserve your space in an upcoming issue.
