中Print and Media Advertising
Dialogue 1
A:Have you gotten a hold of the editor of that magazine about our quarterly advertisement? We need to make some modification on the design before we send a final copy. I'm just afraid , we've missed their publishing deadline for this time around.
B: I didn't talk to the editor, I didn't think it's necessary to talk to her. But I did converse with the person we usually go through in sales. She said that would be no problem with missing the deadline as long as we got a final to her before Thurseday. Because we are long-standing customer, they've already got ad space reserved for us.
A: It's a full page A4 ad in tri-color, right?
B: No, this year we opted for a half-page, but it should be a pretty decent effect. The designers was talking about going for a glossy finish. but later decide that a muted look would be more classic. Anyway, if you take into consideration the substrate paper quality and color scheme,the design is quite striking.
