Advertising on "Fun in Oklahoma"

 Exciting New Feature Released
Shopping Centers
"Taking Grass Roots Business Public"

FREE Advertising - Not only are we taking Grass Roots Events Public but we are also taking Grass Roots Businesses Public.  It is extremely hard, even impossible in many instances for small businesses to get much exposure in the extremely high priced advertising market of the so called mass media.  We are providing exposure for FREE via our "Shopping Centers". 

What is the "catch"?  There really isn't one because it is an innovative new method that produces a win/win situation.  Successful advertising depends on repetition and a lot of it.  A couple of ads here and there will not produce much in any media form.  Repetition is what produces results.  Your name being constantly seen where it needs to be seen is effective, even without a message.  Simply e-mail your name, the business name, address, phone number and areas of interest you deal in.  Your business will be listed in appropriate sections.  We gain by providing others with more of the information they need.

Although at this time it is simply like a phone book, it can do what no phone book can do.  Anyone can pick up a phone book and get the same information but it is much more convenient to simply Click their mouse.  This is how we are making life easier for our viewers.  They are visiting a Section they are interested in.  Naturally they want to find out all they can about the subject.  The "Shopping Centers" provide information to find out where to purchase related products and services.  This is a "Captive Market" and your business is being directly presented to THAT market of customers.  Now comes the EXCITING part.  Your listing can become a link to your web site.  To make your listing a link we do require a prominent link on your site to our site.  This provides us with repetition and a lot of it.  What do we give in return?  Repetition for you, and a lot of it. 

Lets look at Motorcycles as an example.  When people visit the Motorcycle Section there is a Shopping Center in that Section which lists businesses that have Motorcycle related items for sale. 

Now it becomes dramatic because "IF" you provide a prominent link to this site on your site, we will make your listing a link to your web site for FREE.  The customer is looking at our site and can visit your site with a simple click and see everything you have to offer.  That is dramatic advertising and you must admit it is EXTREMELY cost effective. 

Sure you can have your listing without a link to your site and it will remain there but remember, the customer will have to call you then have to write down and type in your site address.  Make it easy for your prospect so they will become a customer. 

We do not do this to get traffic from your site, we likely have far more traffic than you do but advertising depends on repetition and by having "Fun in Oklahoma"  listed everywhere, we get Repetition.  We are helping you help yourself and us, it cost you nothing.  That IS a Win/Win situation.

You probably have your URL listed in your yellow pages ad (and by the way - which yellow pages?) but people have to find the phone book, look up your ad, then type in the URL and finally get to your site.  Compare that to a simple click of the mouse.  If they are interested in Motorcycles they will find our site and it is the most complete source of information about Motorcycles in Oklahoma that is available anywhere in the world.  Click HERE now to visit the example of Motorcycles.  Click the listings that have links.  See the difference?  It is the same with all Sections of the site.

Our objective is to expose the general population of Oklahoma (and visitors to Oklahoma) to what is available in this Great State.  Which customers do you want most - Ones just getting involved (they spend a lot of money) or the ones who are already involved?  Of course you want both but new people are where your growth comes from.  We will grow the sections to keep existing viewers coming back constantly because we (like you) want to retain the first time customers and make them lifetime customers.  Our main goal (like yours) is to get new people.  We successfully working very hard to accomplish that.

Our traffic is Oklahoma traffic and/or people who are coming to Oklahoma.  We do not use search engines (although we are listed at or near the top of most search engines listings due to our extreme growth and results).  We build our business the old fashioned way.  We go to events, hand out business cards, and talk to many of the people.  This is one on one personal contact with YOUR prospective customer.  This results in positive "word of mouth advertising" which greatly multiplies our efforts.  It doesn't get much better than that.  We hand out thousands of business cards and that is one of our biggest problems, having enough cards on hand to hand out.  Don't you wish you had that problem?  Now you can.  You have NOT been asked for any money.  No need for that because as you see results you will be calling to advertise so you can garner more attention and further increase your income. 

There are some requirements for "Linked" Listings:
1 - Your site can not have objectionable material or links to sites with objectionable material as determined by us.  We are a family friendly site and will remain that way. 

2 - You must display our link in a prominent way , not just buried in a long list of links.  Remember what you are getting in return - USEABLE traffic to your site, something very difficult to obtain

3 - Failure to leave the link on your site will result in your listing being eliminated from the site and can only be reinserted for a recurring fee.

4 - Our link must be in place on your site before we provide the link to your site.  Intentions are great but far too many simply forget to do it.  Simply place the link on your site then email us your web site address so we can check it and your site for approval.  Legitimate businesses only.

NOTE:  This is a privately owned site and we DO Reserve the right to refuse any listing we wish, for any reason we wish.  We also have the right to refuse any content we wish.  When we become a publicly held company we may lose some of our rights of refusal.  At this time
"Fun in Oklahoma"  is a privately held company offering  privately held content.  We do not have to offer access to anyone nor everyone.    

E-mail us right now - provide us with your business name, city, and phone number and it will be posted in the proper sections.  You must be a legitimate and legal business.  You must have products and/or services related to the Section.  Don't hesitate to E-mail us because it is the fastest and most effective way to get listed.  We may list you without a contact from you but it will likely take a long time for it to happen.  This is a limited time opportunity.  At some point in the future this will be a service for FEE simply because it will have to be in order to provide the help required to produce and maintain the information.  It will always be an extreme value AND we will remember those who got involved in the beginning - your record will be marked as such which will provide many benefits down the road.

Addresses are NOT being added at this time as we are working on features that will make the addresses extremely effective.  If you do a link exchange then your address will be added. 

To get your phone number added (without a link on your site to our site) then simply E-mail us your contact information and we will add it.

The shopping centers are similar to phone books today.  The Shopping Centers will develop into far more than the simple listings they are today.  I could tell you what all will become available but it is very hard to comprehend the very dramatic features that are coming. 

If you do not have a web site please contact us and we will create a web presence for you.  There are many possibilities available from almost NO cost to as elaborate as you want to go.  From a simple page to an extremely elaborate web site we can fill your needs.  If you want a great web site we can provide one for you through our parent company, ToneyCo an the possibilities are endless.  ToneyCo even owns a web site hosting company.  We can host your site, build your site, and even provide expert expertise to maintain your site. 
Thank You, Jeff Toney -

Fantastic Advertising Opportunity
Low, Low, Low Introductory Rates

Many possibilities are available from simple ads to elaborate campaigns.  We can and will fill your needs.

This site is experiencing very strong growth and will continue to do so because we have over 14 years of very successful experience at building web site traffic.  We do not use search engines, we do it the old fashioned way.  We go out and meet people, shake hands and hand out thousands of business cards.  Hard and persistent WORK is what generates our REAL traffic.  That is why our traffic is from Oklahoma (and/or those outside Oklahoma who come here for events).  Search engines never attracted our attention.  We don't want traffic from just anywhere, especially from overseas or traffic that was simply redirected to run up numbers.  We want the same thing you do, people who HERE and interested in the content available.  That is what we call REAL traffic and it is the traffic that generates customers for you.  Look on the search engines and you will find "Fun in Oklahoma" in many prominent places but we have always ignored those who can "build our traffic" by working with search engines.  If we had a general use product that could be used all over the world we would use search engines but this is OKLAHOMA and that is what you care about, that is what we care about.

Can we guarantee you will get results?  NO and neither can other media sources.  We DO provide an audience that comes here because they are interested in what is available.  If you have what they are interested in and an effective ad you WILL get results.  If you treat those customers right, they will continue to be customers.

Regardless of your advertising budget, we have a solution that will help your business grow.  From basic ads to Sponsorship of the entire site - from simple logos with a link to your site to elaborate video presentations.

Business Card Special Promotion Program

You provide double sided business cards with your card on one side and the "Fun in Oklahoma" card on the other side.  This is a tremendous opportunity for you.  You provide the cards plus 20 cents per card and we get them placed in the hands of prospects for you.  Think about it, a personal one on one contact and placing YOUR information directly into the hand of your future customer.  This is far better than general advertising plus it insures 100% delivery .  This is not only extremely effective but is also extremely cost effective.   

This is a tremendous opportunity at a price never before even dreamed of.  Extremely effective promotion at an extremely low cost.  We visit many events (vastly varied events) and we do a lot more than take pictures and take information.  Most importantly, we hand business cards to people and often talk to them. 

Choose your audience.  You have the ability to choose who we hand your cards to, from the general population to a narrow group such as Bird Watchers, Tennis enthusiasts, etc.  We will only hand your cards to people in the categories YOU select.  If you provide cards and want to target a specific group such as Street Motorcycle Riders we are going to go to Poker Runs, Bike Shows, Bike Nights, etc.  We are going to go and get the customers YOU want. 

We do not hand out all your cards at one event.  That would be the lazy way of doing it and would not produce the most cost effective campaign for you, plus it would require all our time to do it.  What makes us effective is giving the reader what they want and that is exposure for them.  When we attend an event we meet people, hand many of them cards and talk to them.  We take pictures, gather information, and get it posted on the site.  When we make people at an event happy, they tell others about it, even those who were not at the event.  This multiplies the effectiveness of your cards.  It is far more effective to attended multiple events to get exposure for you.
