Residents read, retain and reference them.

Some comments from happy advertisers
Steve Johnston, owner at Johnstons Jewellers
The Beach Hut adverts have been a great way for our business to reach out to local people and other businesses. Customers now look out for us to see our new jewellery and bring the advert in to show us. So we know our ads are working very well!
Wendy Caplan, Director Bijou Theatre Productions
The Beach Hut has been a supportive and very useful advertising tool for us over the last few years. Taking the cover ads for our plays has made a big difference to our ticket sales and has increased our local profile.
Rachel Wolstenholme, Owner at Zero Dry Time Torbay
I can honestly say that advertising in The Beach Hut has been the best source of advertising we could have chosen – absolutely invaluable. We are now in to our sixth year of business and every month without fail we have many enquiries and jobs as a result of the magazine… the vast majority of customers return to us as repeat business and they recommend us to many others too. Win win!
Danny Hall, Manager at The Foot Clinic
For us at The Foot Clinic our advertising in The Beach Hut has been a major strand of our promotion over many years. We provide a service to local people and The Beach Hut hits exactly that market. It’s a big plus that Gesche is always super helpful in putting ads together for us….regularly we hear from clients ‘I saw you in The Beach Hut’. This is one advertising outlet I would really recommend to keep you in touch with your local customers and clients….we wouldn’t be without it.
