The Miles & Barr ‘Your Thanet’ Advertising Campaign

 

Kosmedia launched its new weekly free newspapers on Wednesday 12th August 2007 and Miles & Barr have invested heavily in advertising in them. The uniqueness of the papers is that each area has its own publication so relates directly to the people who live there, ie:


  • Your Thanet
  • Your Medway
  • Your Ashford
  • Your Canterbury
  • Your Shepway
  • Your Maidstone
  • Your Dover
  • Your Swale
