is costly, in truth it is not, particularly in comparison to newspaper ad-rates.
Some 30 second spots on CHCH (Channel 11, Hamilton/Halton) can cost only
a few hundred dollars depending on the "time slot". These spots, or spots
during the news, are excellent for promoting local businesses as they are
'local interest' programming; and are most likely to be watched "live" (not
videotaped and viewed later where the viewer will most likely fast-forward
through the ads).
Having some general knowledge about the adverting rates in the local
newspaper, I can safely say that a significant number of local TV 'time slots'
are priced less than a single black & white quarter page ad in a single issue of
the local newspaper, and the impact of television can be far more effective in
selling and attracting customers.
We are a local video and television production company, we produce TV
commercials for local business like yours. Over the last several years, we
have produced a number of TV Commercials and full half-hour Infomercials,
some aired nationwide and in the United States. At this time, we see it as
beneficial to broaden our portfolio and are, thus, keeping our "production
fees" to a minimum to entice new clients, like you.
Video and television production can be perceived by some as an expensive
and complicated process, not with Dazzle Productions on your side, it is
completely "hassle free". We have put together "Package Price" options in
order to simplify the process, with everything included to take your TV
commercial from concept to the airwaves... scripting, shooting, editing, titles,
voice-over, music, even the tapes, we take care of it all. The packages start
as low as $1800 for our 'Economy Package'. We also produce Infomercials,
Training Videos, Promotional Videos... we are a full-service video production
company.
We will also work hand-in-hand with you and the TV station(s) to negotiate
