Florida Market Bulletin No Longer Printed and Mailed
Dear Market Bulletin Subscribers:
All areas of state government have been directed to reduce expenses to help alleviate Florida’s serious budget shortfall. As part of this cost-cutting measure, the Florida Market Bulletin has ceased publication. The June 2008 issue was the last to be printed in paper form and mailed to subscribers. Even though the printed Market Bulletin has been discontinued, we will continue posting the classified ads online each month.
The Florida Market Bulletin has been published since 1917. However, subscriber interest in the printed version of the newspaper has dropped significantly in recent years. In January 2007, when purge notices were sent to the 14,136 subscribers on the mailing list, only 5,347 readers requested to continue receiving the printed newspaper. This was a 38 percent renewal rate. This low subscriber response is understandable since more and more readers prefer to view the Market Bulletin classified ads online.
Market Bulletin advertisers may continue using the online ad placement system or they may continue faxing their ads to (850) 922-2189 or mailing them to Florida Market Bulletin, Mayo Building M35, 407 South Calhoun Street, Tallahassee, FL 32399-6555.
We trust that you support our efforts to help reduce costs to Florida taxpayers.
The Editors
