In the most celebratory sense, of course: March 12th is Alfred Hitchcock Day. While we’re fans of mystery and suspense, we know that both are lots more fun in movies than in real life. And that’s why we do our best to help when you’re puzzled by something. If you’re feeling mystified by any aspect…
Ever the optimists, we’re looking for that first robin of spring. Sure, he hasn’t turned up yet, but we’re keeping our eyes peeled all the same. And in the meantime, we’re spending some time with his hardier blue cousin: a little bird we call Twitter. It’s estimated that around 500 million tweets are sent out…
And so is findnflip.com. You probably noticed something a little different when you visited us online in the last few days. Okay, okay – “a little different” is an understatement. As you might have guessed, we’ve revamped our website. We added some exciting new options and developed a more user-friendly interface, and we know you’ll…
365 days. 246 blog posts. Fifty-one issues. Fifty-two radio broadcasts. Thousands of ads and hundreds of new advertisers. We’ve been pretty busy – it was one heck of a year! 2013 was not only our 45th year in business, it was also the year that brought completely free advertising – as of November 26, 2013…
340 million. That’s how many tweets are posted every single day. And we here at Paper Shop contribute about five or six tweets daily to that staggering number. We’re particularly well-suited to Twitter, because we’re used to working within pretty strict guidelines to say the things we want to say; our most common ads are…
We’re closing in on the 200 post mark (and our 6 month anniversary), and we’d just like to take a moment to thank you for keeping up with us. As always, you’re welcome to comment here, say hello on Facebook, throw a tweet our way, or even contact me, the blog author, at jenk@blog.findnflip.com. I…
Stop. Pause. Rewind. Tinker with the space-time continuum (well, sort of). If you miss a Saturday morning broadcast of Paper Shop Live!, there’s always the not-so-live version: the podcast. It’s not only a chance to catch up if you missed the show, it’s also a great way to get any details or contact information you…
April 18th is National High Five Day. In the spirit of this, we tried to high-five you from our computer, but the results … well, they were less than spectacular. And even if they weren’t, you wouldn’t have seen mind-blowing high-five we had planned, anyway. It seems that we’ll just have to settle for a…
We are rather social beasts here at Paper Shop. We’re not only here on the phones Monday through Friday to take your ads and answer your questions, we’re also available on Facebook, Twitter & Google+. Don’t hesitate to comment, tweet or even message us – we’ve got a longtime Paper Shop employee manning the switches…
Oh, the things we can do in 140 characters! Even more amazing? What you can do: touch base with us, ask us questions or share your thoughts. Since most commission ads are 30 words or fewer, we’re pros at getting an idea across very simply; it’s only natural that we’d love Twitter. We like that…
