Advertising with us

Advertising is the key to making Your Community ADman a success. We strive to provide a service you are completely satisfied with. Our design & production team are on hand to make sure that your advert is de- signed and fully approved. The cost for design and approval is included in the price of the advert. We are confident that we can provide your business with the publicity it requires. Talk to us about your advertising requirements and find out how we can raise the profile of your business in the local community.

Make your AD work

We really do want your advert to work best for you and sometimes what you want isn’t what’s going to work so we’ve compiled a few hints and tips to get the best out of the space that you’ve bought within the maga- zine.

Keep it clean If your ad is busy it doesn’t work as well. The most common mistake that the client makes is to try and cram too much content into their ad and it can be detrimental to its effectiveness.

1. The power of assumption: If your company’s name is John’s Fishmongers you don’t have to tell people again and again that you sell fish. They’ll know. 2. It’s all in the timing: Remember that the reader spends on average 2 seconds glancing over your ad so if it doesn’t get them in that time it fails to work. Bigger Is better but don’t cram it: The bigger your ad is the more impact it has. You’re much better not to fill it just because you have more space.

No bad pics.... Fuzzy, lo-res, grainy or out-of-focus images are detrimental to your advert. Taking pics on your phone do not constitute a print quality image and can make your company look amateurish.

1. Let a pro do the work: The best thing to do is to get a professional to take them, not a pal with a good camera. It might cost a few quid but it pays off in the long run. 2. A means to an end: If you don’t have professional photographer at your disposal then stock imagery can be used. It’s not perfect but it’s better than mobile phone camera pics. Stockists have the stuff: If you’re the stockists of a certain product there’s a good chance that they will have good images that you can use. Just ask them.

Meet us half way We don’t know your business so we need to get some level of input from you. Sometimes that’s done best by popping into the office to speak the designer or communicating through emails.

1. What tickles your fancy?: Have a look to see what other ads there are in our magazine that you like or have a peak on Google and let us know. 2. Help us to see: We may not know the industry that you work in so we don’t know the faux pas’ and cli- chés. Best to give us a heads up. We don’t know you: You have your own personal preferences for things like colour and imagery so don’t keep it to yourself. It saves everyone’s time if you just let us know. Thank You.

Powered by Accu Weather April is the fourth month of the year, the first of four months to have a length of 30 days, and the second of five months to have a length of less than 31 days.

People born in April are sensitive folks. They not only feel every emotion clearly, but they sense what others around them are feeling and going through as well. This causes them to be good em- pathizers and therefore, they can advise people from experience. They make good mentors. April born folks fear nothing. They are always up for a challenge and see opportunities in the most diffi- cult endeavours. Their life’s mantra is ‘if you haven’t tried or risked things and failed, you have done nothing life!’ April born individuals are good looking and have a certain charm to them. These qualities surround them with an aura of seduc- tion and this is especially true in the case of April -born girls. So it won’t come as a surprise if you find yourself falling very hard for someone like her! April born individuals have a great sense of adventure. Risk-taking is in their blood and they will keep themselves entertained undertaking the craziest activities. Their favourite pastime is to indulge in adventure sports of all kinds; the scar- ier the better! April born individuals are quick learners and innovative in their approach. There- fore, it comes as no surprise that they make great leaders. They have a dual quality of being dy- namic yet grounded which helps them lead all sorts of people. People working under them will benefit from their knowledge and ideas. It is how- ever not surprising that the Late Kofi Annan was born in April.

If you were born in April, you may be celebrating your birthday with Hon. Prof. Aaron mike Oquaye, Hon , Quincy Owusu Abayie, John Boye etc.

This Month is going to feature important Chris- tian activities like Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter. This means that there may be holi- days for workers and a lot of events in Accra.

11 https://www.facebook.com/communityadman https://www.twitter.com/communityadman Accra Community Magazine BUSINESS BEAT Apri l 2019 THE UK’S EXIT FROM THE EU; HOW BENEFICIAL IS THIS TO THE AFRICAN MARKET?

In a world where natural resources are sparsely and uniquely distributed among nations/regions, no state can ever make claim to or boost of self-sufficiency. However, the needs of a nation beyond its own provisions are quenched and catered for simply through international trade and aids. Trade can thus exist between two or more countries with good international relationship. The United Kingdom and Africa have had a great re- lationship since antiquity and this peaceful relationship has continued for years now and we hope to see more great connections between these two in coming years. The relationship between the UK and Africa however can be attributed to the commonness in language (English), some aspect of similarities and connec- tion in terms of culture (Basically food, dress sense, wedding etc), law, government structure and even trade. Notably, there exist strong relationship between the UK and South Africa given the above mentioned simi- larities’ and additionally, it is speculated that a section of South Africans have British descents and vice versa made possible through colonization. The writer believes there could be a highly strengthened relation- ship with the exit of the UK from the EU (Brexit) and this is the time Africa needs to be pragmatic in taking advantage of the market of the UK after Brexit.

Many sceptics have attributed the exit of the UK from the EU to maintaining its sovereignty, security, fi- nances etc. Others have attributed the move to the need to be recognised as a super power nation without being limited by the rules and regulations underlying being a member of the EU. Whilst these speculations among others could be true, I personally see Africa to be at an advantageous position in Brexit. Why so?

There has been many speculations regarding the UK eyeing Africa to fill the BREXIT trade gap but it will also suffice for this article to provide some benefits the UK has/had as a member of the EU. The main benefit is the trading in the European single market which is the largest international single market in the world; so an exit of the UK from the EU is likely to affect its trade (depending on how the ongoing arrangement to se- cure a trade deal between UK and EU works out). Nonetheless, as part of the EU, the UK enjoyed removal of trade barriers in trading with other member nations. There exist/ed greater competition in services which gave room to always have the best of service there is. The EU also helped to prevent any practices haven to do with monopolies etc. Additionally, the EU among several other benefits facilitated greater efficiency in terms of doing business in other member states.

With the BREXIT; with or without the ongoing trade deal/negotiations, it suffices to conclude that, the UK won’t benefit in totality from the European single market as they used to in past years. Now, it is scheduled for the UK to exit the EU on March 29th 2019 and my question is ‘‘what is Africa doing as a continent to take advantage to strengthen its market internationally at the expense of UK and currently Asia alike?’’. With such exit, the UK would need a substitute to fill the gap in terms of trade. Asia, notably China, Korea, and Japan have made Africa their core trading point in recent years. With a wide range of speculations of UK making Africa its bedrock in terms of trade, I believe this is the time African leaders take a pragmatic step in fostering economic development and growth by revisiting past trade deals or enter into new more beneficial trade negotiations with the UK and Asia that has the tendency to build a rigorous African market with fa- vourable international market price for it’s exports. African leaders can do so by having the will power to set goals; in such new markets, we must have set of goals that we aim to achieve in order not to deviate from it in subsequent trade deals. We can determine the goods/services which are needed and necessary to enter or leave Africa as well (calling the shots) . Africa must also do lot of market research to understand the prod- ucts of its new partner if it wouldn’t conflict or compete with its local infant industries. Africa must ensure that its goods/services that enter UK or Asia are given good market prices to boost the profit of local produc- ers and agriculture. In Africa, we have local car manufacturers like the Kantanka Autombile (located in Ghana), Kiira Motors Corperation (Uganda), Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company (Nigeria) and so on; Africa can also strike trade deals with Asia or UK to allow these cars have showrooms overseas to be show- cased to encourage necessary export to increase foreign reserves and increase the market base of these automobile companies.

As a continent, we must improve our market for goods/services, tourism and so on with the influx of Asia and speculatively UK alike. In international trade, it entirely must be a win-win situation and it’s about time.
