Hello Fellow Southern Illinoisan Business Owner,

It has been a tough last 15 months but things are getting better. A Baseline View survived the 2020 Covid19 year and things are moving forward.

I have decided to add a football website to my arsenal for the 2021 season and beyond.

For local businesses this is a chance to expand your advertising potential with a spot on A Sideline View.

All of my previous ad sales were a specific target demographic: High School Basketball fans, players and coaches.

The expansion of the sports fan base will now included high school football in the same area in which I will continue to cover in boy's basketball.

Football teams in the Black Diamond, Cahokia, Little Illini, South Central and Southern Illinois River-to-River Conferences will be featured on A Sideline View along with southern Illinois Independent teams and outlying schools who I also deal with in basketball.

My motto has always been that if a coach is willing to fill out the questionnaire and get me the information that I need then I will make sure to find a place for that school.

It is my own “No School Left Behind” program.

I will continue to provide previews for all of the teams while providing updates on schedules, scores and standings.

If you are an existing advertiser ABV is hoping you will be able to renew your once a year advertising.

The Platinum Plan and Gold Plans will get place your banner ad on both A Baseline View and A Sideline View for (1) calendar year!!!

If you are new to my website, let me explain what an ad on ABV, and now ASV, will do to help your business.

There are two things that you will get advertising with my websites.

1. Traffic to your own business website. Your Ad on my websites won't get you a lot of traffic during the summer months but this fall and winter you will get many more views than you are getting now. All banner ads are direct links to your website home page.

2. Your name will be associated on my page with high school athletics (basketball) in southern Illinois and that is important. The people of this area follow high school sports conscientiously and basketball and football top the list of sports. A large number of those fans frequent my website throughout the year.

My website depends on contributions from advertisers like yourself to operate. Unlike calendar and program companies that ask for money, ABV is a southern Illinois based business and the money stays right here.

ABV buys local and helps support small businesses.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. My cell number is 618-731-6324 or you can email me at abaselineview@yahoo.com.

Thank you for your time and I hope we can continue to work together (or begin a new relationship) in promoting the kids and schools in this part of the state.

Sincerely,
