From:       Yellow Pages Group - Pubco. 507 and 510 (excluding the
Neighbourhood directories and the non-Bell Canada books)

Subject:    YLO directories in Ontario & Quebec - Products Integration
Guide and Overview


Product Integration - Phase One - launching across Canada
Ontario and Quebec directories - effective with September 2007 directories
forward

Yellow Pages Group is pleased to announce the launch of Product Integration
- Phase One.   This phase will introduce a standardized set of products
coast-to-coast, creating new advertising opportunities for your clients and
will help to reduce product confusion.   Integration will involve some
changes to existing ad sizes, and the introduction of new ad sizes.    2007
issues will be the first directories to reflect these changes. (Owen Sound
2007 for Ontario, Montreal 2007 for Quebec, Vancouver 2007 for British
Columbia and Calgary 2007 for Alberta).

These documents cover the changes to the directories in Ontario and Quebec.
Another email will address the Phase One changes to the directories in
Alberta and British Columbia.

There are three documents to assist with the integration / transition.  In
addition to the product changes, there are offers associated with Ad Size
Cancellation.

1.  a Transition Guide (in MS Word) that provides complete details for the
CMR Account executives, national order processors and graphics departments;

2.  a PowerPoint presentation to help as a product integration "overview";

3.  a list of the Ontario and Quebec Neighbourhood and non-Bell Canada
directories.  In Phase One, the Neighbourhood books are affected for the
listing changes, not the display ads.  As before, Trade items are not
available in the Neighbourhood directories.  The non-Bell Canada
directories are not part of the product integration and therefore the
content of these documents do not pertain to products and specs that are
available in these books.


These documents can be found on the CMR Centre:
www.national.yellowpages.ca

Go to:
Products / Print Products Guide / Classified Directory Products - Ontario
and Quebec


Thank you for your attention in this matter.

The Kelsey Group's Drilling Down on Local '07 Conference

TO:       YPA™ Members

FROM: YPA™ President Neg Norton

RE: The Kelsey Group's Drilling Down on Local '07 Conference

How is Yellow Pages and other traditional media affected by search? Where are local ad dollars heading? How are national advertisers getting into the local mix? What is the impact of self-serve advertising?

If you are looking for answers to questions like these, then I encourage you to attend The Kelsey Group's Drilling Down on Local '07 conference, March 19-21, in Santa Clara, California.

Drilling Down on Local '07 is the 12th conference hosted by The Kelsey Group since 1997 focused on local search, interactive local media and local online commerce. This year's event will take a close look at sales, technology and usage, and will cover a range of subjects, including:

  • Selling/Serving Local Businesses
  • Leveraging Yellow Pages Assets
  • Verticalizing Major Directory Categories
  • Localizing National Businesses
  • Co-Existing with Major Search Engines
  • Understanding Disruptive Ad Models

Drilling Down will offer you the superior networking opportunities that are the hallmark of Kelsey Group events:

  • The place to meet industry insiders—your clients, prospects and potential partners.
  • Numerous opportunities to connect with speakers, other attendees, exhibitors, sponsors and Kelsey Group analysts.
  • Pre- and post-conference networking facilitated through the Drilling Down Group on LinkedIn, enabling you to arrange appointments in advance of the conference, as well as follow-up with key contacts after returning to the office.

The Kelsey Group and YPA™ have made an agreement that can save you $200 off the regular conference registration price. Please note this discount is available only to those who have not yet registered – if you are already signed up, then you are receiving a price better than any new registrant. This special offer will remain in effect through the start of the conference, but the price will go up periodically as the conference draws closer.

There's a registration price increase  Friday, January 26. So register right away to take advantage of the lowest price possible for YPA™ members. Call The Kelsey Group at (609) 921-7200 Ext. 10, or click here for more information.

I look forward to seeing you in Santa Clara.
