Local Advertising That People Actually See
ChitChat combines the trust and visibility of a full-colour local publication with the added value of online business profiles, coupons, and local SEO exposure.
Canadians still engage with newspaper & community content
Canadian research shows that newspaper and community-style content still reaches a large audience every week. ChitChat gives local businesses affordable exposure in a trusted local format.
Print advertising is trusted
Print advertising continues to be one of the more trusted advertising environments compared with many digital-only channels. ChitChat places your business in a local, community-focused setting instead of a crowded social media feed.
Physical publications create repeated exposure
Unlike a digital ad that disappears in seconds, ChitChat is distributed to coffee shops, restaurants, waiting rooms, salons, clinics, and community locations where people can pick it up, read it, and see your ad repeatedly throughout the month.
Coupons drive action
ChitChat includes a local coupon section so advertisers can give readers a clear reason to visit, call, scan, save, or buy.
Print + online creates stronger value
Every ChitChat advertiser receives print exposure plus an online business listing, dedicated business profile page, and coupon listing opportunity.
