I started advertising in the YP last year and must say I was pleased with the response, when they called me at the end of the year to upgrade , I was a bit..mmm..well I got a new ad with my website on and have had a lot of response. Not only from clients, but from people opening new salons, asking if I wanted to work from there and also people asking for me to do pamper parties. So have been quite impressed IMA.

I am also in the yellow pages and so far it seems my own advertising is bringing in more clients than the yellowpages. But I've only been in there for about 3 months so I won't say it's not worth it. Not yet. Give me another 9 months and I'll let you know, lol.

I advertised in YP a few years ago and was very disappointed i did not get one call from it at all.

When I first started as a mobile I advertised with YP. Took a fancy (and expensive - very niave!) ad and got a good response. I was under 'Nail tech' class though not the Salon. I now have my own salon and this year downgraded to a free line! Unless you can afford half a page there is no way to compete (imo) and I took up yell.com which for me has brought in more business. The best form of advertising for me is still word of mouth....and a darn sight cheaper...

I am in the yellow pages under Nail Enhancements in my local community book (not the state wide YP - don't need to advertise to people who are miles away)...
I am surprised by the amount of people who find me through the book. For one year I had a good size add, didn't get so many calls, now I have a small add and I get more calls (go figure). I am happy with the service and find it a relatively affordable form of advertising

I'm not in the YP yet, but my husband is for his line of work (Block Paving). He's had phone calls but no work and it costs a fortune, the first place I look if I need anything is our Dentons Directory (not sure if you have those in your area).

Personally - through the 5 marketing positions I have held - very little. Always found Yell.com to have a greater response rate.
