Our Clients Say it Best

Metro has already been very helpful. We love it. Thank you!
Thanks for the great service.

Marianne Thomson, The Bulletin Board

The creative is so good at Metro, and there are so many great ideas available on the site, that it makes our job of adapting them and selling them to our clients very easy.

Rick, Seaway News

I can't imagine putting together our magazines without having access to Metro. In fact, I can't think of a single time that we haven't been able to pull exactly what we need from Metro — and that's what makes it so valuable.

LeAnna, Mooresville Tribune

Newspapers everywhere have downsized, are short-staffed, and are under pressure to maximize every sales call, so MiAD is a tool that we can't afford not to use.

Eric, Orange Leader

Metro stays on top in terms of updating graphics and photo options, so there are always a lot of great options to choose from.

Jody, Beardstown Newspapers, Inc.

Metro content is always reliable, fact-checked, and well written, so it's a true value to us because we don't have to invest time and resources to gather particular information.

Lisa, Daily News

Often — especially when consulting with a prospective advertiser — I'll just send Metro ADS On Demand some photos and text for an ad and what comes back the next morning is a work of art.

Guy, Orange County Breeze

Advertisers now want marketing consultants, not just ad reps. Metro's MiAD is a very useful and effective tool for giving advertisers what they want, both quickly and easily.

Tara, Marshall Independent
