Ad Club to Host Media Auction

(Ontario, CA) The Inland Empire Chapter of the American Advertising Federation (AAF) will host its annual Media Auction Tuesday, Nov. 18, 6:30-8:30PM at Dave and Busters in Ontario.

The auction is an opportunity for media buyers to purchase advertising at dramatically reduced rates, according to John McCarthy, program chair at the AAF. "These are incredible deals and the selling price for advertising is often 15-25% of actual value."

For example, McCarthy said that radio spots on K-FROG valued at $3,420 sold for $600 and KCAL FM radio worth $4,050 sold for $500. A local cable TV package valued at $2,000 sold for $400.

In addition to the media auction, the ad club will also offer deep discounts on hotel packages, amusement park tickets, public relations services, photography and more.

Proceeds from the Media Auction helps support student scholarships and last year, over $2,500 was awarded to local college bound students.

Admission to the Media Auction is open to the public and there is no charge to attend.
