What the Advertisers Say
“We had an excellent response as a result of the article in Accelerate on Simply SAAB – from customers and those who didn’t realise we were in the Bristol area. It created a good deal of awareness with people. We were also very pleased with our advert, and the testimonial they did for us. It really helped drive our recent open day.”
Richard Batten, Simply SAAB, Bristol.
“The introduction of this impressive publication has given us a fresh approach to press advertising, not only does it look good but the content is fantastic and it reaches a guaranteed high percentage of the Bristol market every month.
“One of the main things that has impressed us is the editorial side of things – we have found it very easy to plan our features, which have always delivered efficient results with great communication throughout. Thanks for your efforts so far and keep up the good work!”
Chris Dennis, Marketing Manager, Toyota World (Bristol Group).
