What's happening this month.....
Last month, we ran a paid campaign on Facebook to increase page 'likes'.  We ran the campaign for a week and received nearly 300 likes!  A wonderful result, which has prompted us to re-advertise again throughout June!

This month, we have again chosen to advertise in the Maribyrnong & Hobsons Bay Star Weekly.   The color advert is 13 x 6cm and will be distributed in the following areas: Altona; Altona Meadows; Altona North; Braybrook; Brooklyn; Footscray; West Footscray; Kingsville; Laverton; Maidstone; Maribyrnong; Newport; Seddon; Spotswood; Williamstown and Yarraville. That's over 60,000 homes in a brilliant part of Melbourne - very eclectic and diverse pockets of communities in the west that embrace markets!

We have also chosen to re-advertise in The Melbourne Times Weekly.  The color advert is 13 x 6cm quite similar to the one above, and will appear in the "Discover" section of the paper which is distributed to every home in the following areas: North Melbourne; Parkville; Richmond; Fitzroy; Fitzroy North; Abbotsford; Fairfield; Alphington; Northcote; Brunswick; Brunswick West; Thornbury; Preston and Reservoir.  That's over 92,000 homes! 

Both adverts were live on Tuesday 17th June.

Along with the advertising above, we have also been in contact with the following media associations: Metropolitan Newspapers, Q Magazine, The Australian, The MX.

Suburban Newspapers: Hobsons Bay Leader, Hobsons Bay Weekly, Melbourne Leader, Moonee Valley Leader.

Metropolitan Radio: 3ZZZ, Fox FM, Joy FM, Nova 100, PBS FM, SEN, Triple M Melbourne, Triple M FM 102.7.

Metropolitan Television: Channel Nine Melbourne, Channel Seven Melbourne, Channel 10 Melbourne, Channel 31 Melbourne, ABC Television, SBS Television.

Further to this, we continue our monthly precinct marketing activities:

  • We will be will be distributing 5,000 market postcards detailing the dates and venue of the market, to selected streets in the Kensington and Flemington precincts. 
  • Rendina Real Estate continues their wonderful support with 2 large real estate boards at both gates of Kensington Primary School. 
  • We will continue quarterly advertising space (Autumn Edition) in the Kensington/Flemington newspaper which covers all of the Kensington and Flemington areas (and a few surrounding streets). 
  • New market posters printed and they have been placed in the Kensington and Flemington shopping precincts along with market postcards in selected stores.
  • On market day, volunteers and Committee members will hand out flyers to people in the Kensington Shopping Strips, namely Macaulay and Bellair Streets.  We will also have chalk signage on the main roads, along with banners, bunting and balloons at the front gates.
