Beaufort County Business is Ready to Serve the Business Community in Conjunction with BCN


    Beaufort County NOW (BCN) will no longer be a stand alone entity, with a concentration on all subjects on God's complicated earth; BCN will now stand with Beaufort County Business (BCB) to concentrate on serving the business community in Beaufort County, and the region of northeastern North Carolina. We have built the site using the same magnificent Content Management System (CMS) that powers BCN, Symbiotic Publisher, and in that one word to describe it ... well, it is powerful ... the most powerful of any site, of any size, of anywhere in northeastern North Carolina. It has taken years of evolution, but we took great pains to build it that way.

    Accordingly, like BCN, Beaufort County Business is extremely fast in its operation, perfect in its navigation, Responsive on all viewing screens with the evolving ability to provide Social Networking for joining members, who actually wish to participate and help drive business to their own space on this World Wide Web, and, ultimately, to the center of their business world.

    As all reasonable folks realize, that is how you make money; by reaching out to others as efficiently as you can possibly afford to do so. Once you have found them, BCB will offer you a convenient moderated Social platform to stay in touch with your new and old customers, and you won't be "Candy Crushed" in the process. Moderated platforms, such as BCN and BCB, do not allow such nonsense and time wasters.

    Look, we're not asking you to "Like" BCN or BCB, just use the growing, evolving resources we provide. Worst case scenario, you'll learn real stuff that will make a difference in you like. At BCN, education - the pure pleasure of gaining real, functional knowledge - has always been our primary objective. Now we afford you the opportunity to present yourselves to our 10,000 readers, and soon, and, if you are desirous to do so, contact folks: friends, business associates, and new prospectus individuals by using our Social networking capabilities, and use the many tools we provide to build your case as to why they should do business with you, and, or group. Best case scenario, you'll learn stuff, you'll provide some of your own knowledge in posts to everyone, and you will gain the respect of other smart people who use the platform. I can still hear Contributor Diane Rufino's prophetic words ringing in my ears when she understood what I was seeking to do, which we have now done: "Oh' I get it Stan, It's like Facebook for smart people."

    I liked that, still do. It means exactly what we did, what we do, and what we intend to continue to do, to evolve beyond, should be the proper path to provide a source of service to those that need it, that use it, who want more out of life, and more out of their business.

    Here below, we exhibit the initial pricing of our new business friendly site. BCB gets an estimated 400 visitors a day, and while it is a beginning, it is summarily dwarfed by big brother BCN, and this is why the prices are so paltry. We just want to get the site started, and to that end, we will be offering bargains galore. For the astute marketer of their products, price will not be an obstacle. This is my promise.

    Symbiotic Publishing Company, the publisher of Beaufort County Now, initiates its second list of advertisement rates, bolstered by certifiable traffic statistics and powered by our proprietary script, Symbiotic Publisher.

    Beaufort County Now (BCN), powered by Symbiotic Publisher, is an informational platform whose primary objective is to remain a supremely effective vehicle for broadcasting news and information of all objectives that is suitable to publish.

    Our secondary objective is to help others to market their products, their ideas, and ultimately to make money through advertisement. To that end, offer these most reasonable rates to those who wish to gain a leadership position in their market of product, or ideas:

Gateway to one platform: The Banners










    All artwork / design figured at our "best man rate". "Best man rate" is what we charge for our best designer, with all junior designers figures at a proportional lower rate per hour depending on their abilities.



Gateway to multiple platforms: The Business Portfolio Page

    We intend to incorporate our Business Portfolio Page, with its format of multiple links, into a traffic generator for the multiple platforms that it can provide a continuous stream of traffic to, as it also acts as an informational source to the wide array of traffic that keeps our moderated informational platforms abuzz in activity. The geocentric nature of our informational platforms make them especially relevant on a Search basis.

    These Business Portfolio Pages are intended to provide updated, and updatable, information to the public that is fresh, current and relevant to the operation of any successful business that understands that the internet is the most prevalent and enduring medium available in today's media market.

    These portfolio pages have just gone through a second transformation, so that our clients will have the capacity to individualize the portfolio pages, and make them look as good as BCN's pages.

    The Business Portfolio page must be purchased on a yearly contract, with the additional purchase of a one year contract for a minimum of one banner with a direct link to Business portfolio page, until all banners are purchased, at which time the banner requirement will cease.

Prices of Portfolio Page:



    Sponsored Link Portfolio page(s) - sponsorship banner (size will be much larger than our current banners, but unknown as to the specifics at this time), which has the purpose of providing multiple links to portfolio pages, as per category, that will be sponsored by our client's advertisements. The current cost of that sponsored ad is 100.00 per year, plus cost for setup / design.



Symbiotic Publisher CMS


    Our proprietary CMS provides the best leading edge data management system available, while offering adequate storage for the serious online marketer / communicator. Our plan is 34.00 per month, which provides 1.2 gigs of storage. All additional storage needed will be sold at 3.00 per 200 megs per month.

Discounts and miscellaneous information

    An E-commerce component can be provided for an additional fee at our "best man rate".

    All current ad rates, for BCN, are based on a minimum base of 2,400 unique I.P. addresses per day for that month, and a minimum base of 12,000 unique page views per day for that month. The next plateau to raise rates will be two consecutive months of a minimum base of 2,800 unique I.P. addresses per day for that month, and a minimum base of 14,000 unique page views per day for that month.

    Currently, we are well beyond these aforementioned levels of traffic, and we will consider readjusting our pricing after every slot is sold. Until then, the above prices remain in force with all the advertised discounts below included.

    A Legacy Discount of 6 percent is offered on every product, for all services for all business customers (not politicians), who spend a minimum of $2,000.00 with SNI in the initial year of service, for perpetuity, and providing that said client continues to use our products with no break in service. This legacy incentive, for perpetuity, of an across-the-board discount will be offered to these charter clients. The idea is to reward those who choose to use our services now, and that they continue to use our services to continue to receive this excellent discount. This discount will always be awarded to the constant client irrespective of any other discounts offered to the client. Once we contact you, and sufficiently explain explain this "granddaddy" of all discounts, along with our applicable services for your needs, you will have 60 days to make a decision, begin your service, and pay for a minimum of half of your service, or the discount will be voided for you, while others (maybe your competition) receive the benefit, and will not be re-offered. There will be no exceptions to this condition.

    Continuation of Contract Discount: For all advertisers (banners and portfolio pages), we will build-in another incentive to do business with us as soon as possible, and stay with us for a relative forever; when we increase our rates due to provable, publishable increases in traffic, and at the expiration of the client's contract, we will figure the client's increase at 40% of that traffic increase. For everyone else, who is not already within our business services ecosystem, when we have that appropriate advertisement increase, we will figure the new, perspective client's rate at 60% of that increase; then, once these new clients, in our business services ecosystem, renew their contracts, they will be rewarded with that same discount as our long as they are continual clients clients. There will be no exceptions to the specific qualifiers, for any client, to achieve this discount.

    The smart, wise, serious marketers of products and commerce will be the core of whom we serve, and from a capitalist point of view, why we exist.

Aesthetic Policy:

    Because Symbiotic Publisher is a publication that is built on the twin maxims of effective operation and essential quality control, we will always reserve the right to reject any ad that does not meet our standards; however, we offer most reasonable rates to design suitable banners that are effective in their essential need to communicate.
