I'm creating a classified ad for my newly printed book. My marketing budget is tight which is making things tough. I've chosen a newspaper which connects to my target audience perfectly, but each word costs 70 cents. I'm wrestling the line between saving money so I can purchase more weeks and putting enough information in the ad. Basically this is what I've come up with:


Ad #1) CAN OPEN WHEEL RACING RECLAIM THE CROWN? It can using the strategies outlined in DJ Samson’s new book. Book contains insight about where IndyCar is headed and the marketing/business adjustments needed to drive NASCAR and F1 off the track! AmericanOWR.com


This ad is $28 per week, which is out of my price range but I like the description.



Ad #2) CAN OPEN WHEEL RACING SURPASS NASCAR & F1? It can using the strategies outlined in DJ Samson’s new book, Reclaiming the Crown. Visit AmericanOWR.com

This ad $16.80 per week, which is in my price range.



AD #3) INDYCAR ISNT WHAT IT USED TO BE. “Reclaiming the Crown†has answers to the series’ problems. AmericanOWR.com

This ad is $11.90 per week, which is great. But I'm not sure if it has enough information in it.



What is your personal opinion? And any marketing advice is appreciated too! Thanks. :)
