Business, Franchise & B2B Ads That Get Read by Decision-Makers
Franchise and distributorship offers, partnership proposals, business-for-sale notices and trade promotions - placed where entrepreneurs, investors and procurement teams actually read the newspaper.
Trusted by businesses across India since 2003
From local distributorships to national franchise launches, we ensure your ad reaches the right decision-makers.
What Is a Business / B2B Ad?
A newspaper ad placed by one business to reach another business, a potential partner, or an investor - distinct from consumer-facing classifieds.
Direct to Decision-Makers
A Business or B2B advertisement is published not to sell directly to an end consumer, but to reach other businesses, prospective partners, investors, dealers or buyers of a business itself. It is the newspaper equivalent of a trade notice board - read closely by entrepreneurs scanning for opportunities, by investors tracking deal flow, and by procurement teams looking for vendors.
High Trust Channel
Despite the rise of business directories and B2B marketplaces online, the newspaper classified and display columns remain a trusted, low-cost channel in India - particularly for regional expansion, local distributorship appointments, and reaching an older or more traditional business-owner demographic that still scans the classifieds with their morning chai.
Who Books Business Ads
- Franchisors expanding their brand footprint
- Manufacturers appointing dealers, distributors, and stockists
- Business owners exiting or selling a running unit
- Entrepreneurs seeking a working or silent investor
- Companies inviting vendor or supplier registrations
- Firms promoting B2B services (logistics, finance, IT, consulting)
- Manufacturers appointing sole-selling agencies and C&F agents
- Business consultants offering registration, ISO, and trademark services
- Units running an industrial machinery for sale or scrap auction notice
Pro Tip
For franchise and distributorship ads, always mention the exact investment required and the territory available. This filters out non-serious inquiries and improves your ROI.
Types of Business Ads We Book
Ten recurring scenarios we handle most often, listed the way our desk logs them.
Note: office relocation notices, AGM/board meeting notices and corporate change-of-management announcements are handled under our Announcement Ads category - see that page for statutory notice formats.
Choosing the Right Ad Format
Classified Text
A plain-text, line-rate listing under the Business / B2B classified head. Best for a single-territory distributorship appointment, a discreet business-for-sale notice, or a low-key partner search where you want serious-only inquiries.
Classified Display
A boxed ad within the classified pages with a border, your logo, and bold/highlighted terms. Ideal for multi-city distributorship calls and vendor empanelment notices that need to stand out from plain-text listings around them.
Display Advertisement
A full design placed anywhere on the page (or as a standalone module) with imagery, brand colours and a structured layout. Used for franchise launch campaigns and brand-building B2B promotions where image matters as much as the message.
