Weekly Ad Blasts

Newly placed and renewed ads are included in our Weekly Ad Blast for at least 1 time, but usually 2-3 times.  In addition, ads placed in the Real Estate, Bulk Wine, Grapes, Used Winery and Vineyard Equipment (Boneyard Blast) and Help Wanted Categories are included in seasonal and periodic focused blasts – for no extra charge.

– Ad Blasts of any type are free and we don’t charge extra to be part of them. We run them at our discretion in order to further promote your ads and the website.  They are not considered as part of the price you pay for your ad.
– When a new ad is placed, the ad is placed in our Tuesday blast and runs for a minimum 1 week, maximum 3 weeks – subject to ad volume. (for the last year, all ads have been left in for 3 weeks).
– When an ad is renewed, the 3 week count starts all over and the ad is placed back into the Blast cycle.
– During the “run time” of the ad, if there is a “Focused” blast for that category, i.e. grapes, ads are included in at least one blast, possibly two based on timing and number of ads.

Our goal of the blasts is to keep them fresh with new ads, whenever possible, to make sure people don’t get tired of receiving them.

Wine Country Classifieds was founded back in 1992 when a couple of friends and wine industry veterans, Jim Williams and Tary Salinger, saw the need for an inexpensive and simple tool that allowed wineries, growers, suppliers and anyone else tied to the industry, to buy or sell equipment, barrels, grapes, bulk wine, real estate, etc. – as well as providing a means to find future employees.  They wound up with a basic classified advertising concept, without any editorials to not distract from straight forward communications.  Now with a combined wine industry experience of over 80 years, they celebrate their 29^th year in partnership.   With the exception of a paper color switch from Mauve to Yellow (some may remember the mauve), to allow for recycled paper, and, oh yes, the internet – their primary goal and business has not changed.  “We’re very excited that the year of our 29^th anniversary has brought us not only a new and improved website, but also a new name…WineIndustry.com”.
