artcat900 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Am I missing the boat here ? I looked on the advertisers tab and could not find a place to sign up as an advertiser if I wanted to do so. Seems to me there should be an easy way to do that if you want to get advertisers on board...... maybe I'm a little slow with this stuff but thinking that most customers would be from Quebec and English is not their first language in a lot of cases, It does seem to make it a lot harder to have to navigate around. A tab on the page may ease things up some just my 2 c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGutz Posted October 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 You are correct, I don't have any of that info and it is a quick first draft. French would be good, Google translate may make it too literal, if we had a good translation we can swap it in. If any of the Administrators have input that would be great too.

Thanks GutZ I like the idea but french is a must. Once you have what you want, I can get you it all in «quebecois » so the people receiving it can understand it. Also maybe a brief description on a separate page or a link on card to a sticky on forum in french describing what qc rider is all about, many will not understand what the site is. This will help.

scorpionbowl Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 I've tried putting together the various ideas. I'm not sure of the sizing for the qr code, maybe someone else knows. I've shown the saquenay club ad on the card but we don't have that finalized. Any other thoughts or comments? Once we finalize something, we can get a french version made up also, or maybe French on one side English on the other, but that sounds expensive. In the US we can get 500 standard cards for $10, unless someone knows of other deals... PLAYHARD, Phil 1 and 182ray 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGutz Posted October 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Thinking about myself and my short attention span..... -Reduce the words. Quick and to the point. -Dont use a particular regions ad. (Great fro the Delta, may Snub the Drakkar...) -The larger the QR Code, quicker the "Recognizing" . These are just suggestions, I'm no Ad Exec! Maybe: (sorry about the size) Or list more info on the back. Thanks Don Snobeeler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpionbowl Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 That works because u know what quebecrider is, someone seeing that on the counter wouldn’t know if it’s snowmobiles, atvs, or motorcycles. The ad was just an example if a business wants there own. The generic one could have the larger code like you’ve shown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGutz Posted October 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 HAHA, Good Point! I'm just throwing out suggestions. Later GutZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpionbowl Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 FYI for those interested...there have been almost 2,000 registered users since day 1. Over the last year there have been about 400 active members. During the peak season, there are up to 125 active members in a day, with 85 members active on a typical winter day.

PLAYHARD Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Nice layout Mr Bowl. Does "We heard about you on..." imply that they're already advertisers? I think this is for new prospects: "Thousands of Snowmobilers are looking for you on..." I'd be afraid that any 1 sample place or area could alienate all others. How about using that space for a blurb that: "On Parle Francais!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGutz Posted November 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Hey Guys, Just poking the problem... do we have a final version? How much to get a stack? Thanks GutZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpionbowl Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Replaced the ad section with a sled pic, any other suggestions for a pic? Some have said french instead of english, thoughts? double-sided cards don't seem as available. $10 for 500 basic cards in the US, not sure if there is a Canadian vendor option.

Shore1066 Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Just a thought. Should clubs be approached. Most conversations we have are about eastern Quebec riding. There for, should western clubs be able to do some sort of advertising on the web site same as businesses. As many of us know there is many great trails and businesses in the western area. This web site is such a great wealth of information for where to ride, trail conditions and great places to stay and dine. I think all of Quebec can gain . Just a thought. May be way off base.

iceman Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Hard to give cards in English to people who’s native language is French. Gonna turn some folks right off. Sure some read some English but not many. Just my 2 cents. nyskidooerinnewhampshire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
