Bob....I helped a guy and his wife get started in one of these, 5 yrs ago. He now goes up and down the Interstate corridor...with restaurants AND sponsors in each town.

It's 8 1/2 by 11, "Landscape" and full of "Trivia" stuff (you can get Trivia paperbooks) Plus, he LAMINATES with 3 mil....and folds each piece and sticks them in the plastic bases he buys from me...and sets them on the Rest. Tables.

A few towns he has TWO sheets STAPLED.

He changes the piece EVERY MONTH. Charges $395 for 3 months AND... about 80% of his advertisers RENEW....and if they don't renew after the first 3 mos...3 do later...in a different time-frame.

Send me your mailing address and I'll pop a couple in the mail to you.

Only one problemo;
"You MUST contact prospective advertisers...."IN-PERSON"...which means, this is "PHYSICAL WORK"...getting in and outa yer vehicle a dozen times a day (Hard on yer Starter)
