What our advertisers have said:

 

I was a bit unsure about how active the list of 11K was going to be. After trying it out I can honestly say that if you have the right kind of offer the results will be truly value for money. I've received hundreds of new leads to follow up. Thanks SourceBottle. 
Carl Taylor, author of ‘Red Means Go!’ www.carltaylor.com.au

We used a combination of SourceBottle Text ads and Banners to get a 684% return on investment for our ads. That was the second time that we've used SourceBottle and will happily do it again in the future. The copy that Bec came up with was superb and really sold our business well. To me, it's one of the best short-term sales opportunities in the market.
Michael Halligan, founder of www.engagemarketing.com.au and www.theblogdesigner.com.au

I advertised in Drink Up and on SourceBottle and have had huge results. I sold products worth more than $5,000 after taking up three advertisement spots, giving me a massive return on my investment. Source Bottle is a wonderful service for anyone wanting to do their own PR and for anyone wanting to reach quality business leads. I now recommend it to all attendees at my DIY PR Seminars.

As Gen Y would say 'OMG'. The response in less than an hour has been incredible. Thank you.
Steve Allen, www.Webu.com.au

We ran an ad in the SourceBottle alert for our small DIY PR website and got a phenomenal response! We are targeting small businesses and within half an hour of the alert going out we had made 3 sales, got 8 registrations on the site and this was followed by emails and phone calls with enquiries for the rest of the day. We were so thrilled and can't recommend SourceBottle highly enough. The service that we got (with a smile!) and the immediate response we got were amazing. We will definitely be advertising more in future. SourceBottle Rocks! Jules and Simone, www.handleyourownpr.com.au

I just want to say thanks. Within 10 minutes of the drink alert going out I had 5 sales of my ebook, over 20 sign up for the newsletter and 2 enquiries to advertise on the Shopping Confessions website as well as bloggers wanting to submit work. The traffic that day was amazing. To date this has been the best advertising I have done. A big thank you to the team at SourceBottle. I can't recommend SourceBottle enough. Can't wait for my next drink Alert to go out. I love SourceBottle. Happy Shopping!

Best. $300. I've. EVER. Spent... as a comparison, I recently spent $7,454 on a direct mail marketing campaign which generated over 5 weeks the same number of leads this has generated in 1.5 hours. Flabbergasted.
