Promoted articles are an excellent marketing tool 

-Promoted Article-

–Sometimes an advertiser has more to say than will fit in a display ad. That makes a promoted article in the Paso Robles Daily News a better way to communicate to a local audience. The writers at Access Publishing can professionally write and edit your article, provide a proof, and distribute your message widely to the community. It’s a great way to get your message out quickly and get results. Promoted articles are a newer form of advertising. It is sometimes called “native advertising,” and is being offered by many national newspapers including the New York Times because many readers prefer to see marketing messages in story form, rather than traditional display advertising.
