Advertise in the KPO Program

There are 2 major reasons why you must advertise in the Ku-ring-gai Philharmonic Orchestra's 2007 Concert Programs!

1. You'll attract more customers. Those who regularly advertise in the KPO's Concert Programs tell us their advertisements work - just one of the sales by an optometrist was for $1,476; numerous sales resulted at a take-away whose advertisement was simply - but effectively - saying "I'm here, open for business" ...plus these new customers told others of their delight with this business!; a number of computer repairs and upgrades have been directed to a computer support retailer ...and we've heard of many other purchases made at local businesses because of their support of the KPO.

2. You're demonstrating your support for your local community ...the people who you also want to support you! The KPO is your local community-based and volunteer (volunteer musicians; volunteer managed; volunteer driven) orchestra that must raise all the income necessary to cover its expenses - so we rely heavily on sponsorship and other community support, such as the advertising in our Concert Program. Your advertisement (which is fully tax deductible as a legitimate business expense) will enable the orchestra to continue to present its well-attended symphony concerts, run the highly-esteemed NSW Secondary Schools Concerto Competition, organise its popular Kids' Proms concerts, & help our community in many other ways.

And we have a SPECIAL DEAL FOR NEW ADVERTISERS, like yourself. Book your advertisement in all 6 KPO Concert Programs in 2007 and you will pay for only 5 - we'll give you the November advertisement FREE (Offer available only to bookings made before February 19th).

A Concert Program is available free to every person attending performances by the Ku-ring-gai Philharmonic Orchestra and to each of the 70 members of the Orchestra.

Six concert Programs are produced each year. The 2007 Concert series commences in March (Musical Milestones 17th, 18th March), May (Orchestral Drama, 19th, 20th May), June (NSW Secondary Schools Concerto Competition 30th June), September (Latin American themed 1st September), September (Kids Proms, 23rd September) and November (Symphonic Masterpieces, 17th November).

The KPO is a community-based orchestra that must raise all the income necessary to cover its expenses, so relies heavily on sponsorships and other community support, such as advertising in our Concert Program. Your advertisement (which is fully tax deductible as a legitimate business expense) will enable the orchestra to continue to present its well-attended symphony concerts, run the highly-esteemed NSW Secondary Schools Concerto Competition, and organise its popular Kids' Proms concerts.
