Are print media the right media for all B2B SMEs to do advertising positioning?
The short answer is NO, but we will explain why in the following points:

Price: advertising in traditional media (radio, television, print publications) is usually more expensive than advertising in online channels, not to mention the design costs of the advertising pieces. This is often the main obstacle that prevents SMEs from advertising in print media.
Limited reach: compared to online media.


Clutter: If you buy a modest ad space to place a small ad, there's a high chance it will get lost among larger or full-page ads.
Little flexibility: Announcements must be submitted weeks or months before publication, leaving little room for last-minute changes or tweaks.


To conclude…
Building a solid positioning is a task that should not be left to chance and is key to the growth and consolidation of an SME. The print media we mentioned are known for being synonymous with credibility and having a wide reach among the B2B audience in Argentina.

Taking into account your business needs and budget, and the key factors we mentioned, you will be able to find the medium that best represents your company's value proposition. However, offline media is not an option for all SMEs, and that is when we need to look at digital alternatives for advertising positioning.
