ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITY IN PRINT FORMAT
The Foreign Post readership is a tailor-made target audience for many advertisers. Our readers are up-market and they want high quality products and services, they're affluent and usually free-spending, they're internationally oriented and susceptible to advertising, they're often in business at a senior level, they have purchasing and decision-making powers, they travel a lot and they like nice cars, restaurants, hotels - the GOOD LIFE.
They represent a diversity of nationalities, cultures and creeds which would normally make them a difficult target for marketing. But from the advertisers viewpoint, they have one thing in common - they are loyal readers of The Foreign Post. And they are also buyers of our advertisers' products and services.
Standard issue size is 20 pages in tabloid format, printed offset on high quality bond paper.
CLASSIFIED SECTION
Php 50.00 per line (one line contains about 22 small letters and spaces, or about 15 CAPITAL letters and spaces.)

Historically, The Foreign post has been distributed free of charge since its inception in 1993.
