"Marketing with Business in Vancouver helped our company to get over 120 solid sales leads among organizations from both for-profit and not-for-profit sectors operating in the Greater Vancouver Area and beyond.

"Marketing with Business in Vancouver has helped our company to find leads by effectively targeting business sectors which comprise our major target audience.

BIV's free "For the Record" section gives all businesses an opportunity to stream their member announcements out to the community realizing EVERYONE likes a little local "who's where" in the city.

We appreciate BIV's flexibility in advertising. Not every business is the same size nor operates in the same manner so advertising too works best if tailored.

Our strongest client is in our local market so BIV is simply a good fit."

"Marketing with Business in Vancouver helped our company to communicate our newly launched project to consumers. Pacific Coastal Airlines recently announced "fare pricing that's fair for everyone - Encore fare, Classic fare & Bravo fare". A new standard in fare pricing that puts personalized travel choices directly in the hands of the customer. With consistent advertising in Business in Vancouver newspaper and specifically in the "Book of Lists", we have received large amounts of feedback which resulted in new business. Business in Vancouver continues to be an important part of our communications & advertising campaign."

Jim Anderson
Director, Sales & Marketing
Pacific Coastal Airlines

"Marketing with Business in Vancouver has helped our company to both find and connect with other firms that are of "like mind" when it comes to delivering very high quality solutions to the building community. We've found that BIV is a great vehicle for communicating with our target audience who we are and what we do directly to those that are looking for the types of services we provide."

Richard Millson
President
Millson Technologies Inc.

"I have a custom tailoring business and as a very personalized and time-consuming product and service we are very careful about advertising on mass for its outlay and shotgun effect. As our business traditionally works on word of mouth I was very reluctant to make any long-term commitment to being top of mind for fear not being able to produce where small but good tailors will get bogged down.

But given that we finally can now output a consistent quality and service we decided to try a niche market campaign. As BIV is exactly that market and has the frequency that is perfect for "top of mind" marketing, we gave it a try.

So far since we started in early September we have started seeing progressive track-able results, the type that we can handle and gear up for the top of the curve with.

I must say its exciting after all these years of toe tipping in advertising that I have been able to account for every dollar each month with a rise in sales. I am looking forward to servicing BIV readership while being accountable as a reputed suit and shirtmaker for Vancouver's keen and savvy set business community."

"Marketing with Business in Vancouver helped our company to specifically target local business owners.

Cellworks provides wireless solutions with a focus on dedicated customer support and account management, and the ability to work with the Business in Vancouver team allowed us to tailor our campaign to those individuals who need to stay connected and efficient throughout their day.

Business in Vancouver provided up to date information, statistics and recommendations to allow us to get the most out of our investment, and ensure that we were successful in achieving positive results.

A great organization to work with!"

Michelle Chopin

"Marketing with Business in Vancouver helped our company to achieve a quick and easy sale of a property we had in North Vancouver that we were having a problem getting attention for.

We placed our ad in their paper for 3 submissions...it sold on the first submission when a couple called us from that ad that was looking for the very location and setting we had. The couple always reviewed BIV, so it was through there that they found our wonderful listing.

We did not only have success with the sale, but have befriended this couple and still to this day get together for dinners and drinks. Awesome relationship we came across through BIV newspaper.

We will continue to advertise with them and have told many friends about our success, who in turn have had success selling and advertising with them."

Lynn Smith

"I have been advertising in BIV for nearly 10 years and it is the only type of print advertising that I use. I have found it to be a consistent and effective source of new clientele."
