Purpose
•	Evaluate the most effective print media for our purposes
•	Ensure that the appearance of advertising in print media meets our corporate identify and the requirements of our message
•	Ensure that deadlines for submission of copy are met

Background
Print media is not always the most effective form of advertising.  Unless it is sufficiently controlled and targetted as to message and appearance, it can be highly ineffective or even damaging.  This procedure should identify the most effective print media for our business as well as identifying the minimum requirements of our advertising layout and design.

Scope
advertising staff, marketing manager

Procedure
Use this procedure to identify your preferred print media and items such as contacts, deadlines, standard layout and design issues etc.
