I wish I could say I'd take the EFQ spot but I don't know what kind of volume the ad would generate (maybe too much, LOL!). I've stocked EFQ before and LOVED it! I could add that stock rather quickly and would like to test the Ad thing but I need some convincing that it's a direction I should go (especially since my shop is so small while I figure out what I want to do). Are EFQ shops hard to find?
Side question: Does anyone have a primer / guide on Notice Board Ads (posting them) -- I'm just a size 100 and would like to post one for my shop to try it but I REALLY want the last spot -- the last spot is taken by someone who has ads on 10+ pages. How does it work? What does "peak" mean? I'm thinking it means that it's up 7 days and is first in line on a certain day depending on when you post it but I'd love some insider info. on how to do this...
PS -- forgive me if my message is rambling -- I have been up far too many hours lately and can't tell if I am coherent or not.

The reason that it is tough to fill the EF spot on 4mil ads is because she only asks for like 15 different items I believe? And most of them are pretty cheap. So its hard to make enough profit to cover the spots. Ive had some people take the spot on my ads for months though and they liked it enough to stay. Some people try it out and dont think its worth it.
Im not sure about posting to get on the last page, I only post 4mil ads :P A "peak" is the day that your 4mil ad gets to the top of the other 4mil ads (hopefully in a first position, but sometimes it happens that you get lower than that). So yea, I will be posting this new ad on Tuesdays, and the day I post, it starts at the bottom of the 4mil ads. But during the week , it slowly moves up everyday, and eventually "peaks" 1 week later, on Tuesday

Thank you! That was a great explanation. I thought it would be difficult to fill EFQ because there are so few items. Do you think it would be a problem to have my primary foods with that as secondary on an AD? I know it would pose a problem for a mall but don't know Ad etiquette.

I dont mind AT ALL what items you stock :D I wouldnt expect somene to take that button and ONLY stock her 15 items hahaha. So yea, on my ads, you can stock ANYTHING if your shop. As long as you pay for your button, I will link to you and we're all happy :D
[quote]Haha she'll end up with one everyday[/quote]
lol and then I can sneak my way off the list on to one lol jk
I was thinking mel, you prob dont want to adjust the prices since youve had so long but you could always charge the other 20 buttons besides the earth faerie an extra 1-2 k ea and then make the Earth faerie spot a little cheaper like 150k, and maybe people will find it more attractive. Anyway just a thought, good luck filling it.
I was actually thinking about doing that Nilrem.
I just wasnt sure if people would think its "fair". I personally think it is, since its not much of a profit category haha.
Does anyone else have comments about upping price of ALL 21 other buttons (faerie buttons and reg buttons), to say like 185k (instead of 182k) and that would leave Earth to be 115k

I think that sounds fair Mel :)

Looking for a EARTH FAERIE fill in for TONIGHTS ads! Wednesday peak. 93k.
There is a possibility that I'll be looking for someone to take this spot perm, biweekly. New price is 73k starting next week.
Thanks :D
