Our local Costessey & Hellesdon magazines are delivered with the post to all 15,000 homes and businesses, making it easy for you to connect with your target audience and grow your business.
First published in 2020 for Costessey residents, Handy now has two business directories, so you can choose to focus your advertising in Costessey, Hellesdon or both areas for maximum visibility.
Our small, A5 sized glossy magazines make it quick and easy to find a local service, with residents often keeping their magazine safe for future use. Featuring competitions, recipes, news and events along with varied small business advertising, our business directories are read, loved and trusted by the community.
What’s more, advertising rates are extremely good value, particularly when you take advantage of discounts for multiple issues or both directories. Learn more about our advertising rates for our Costessey and Hellesdon magazines.
With the rise in social media scams, our directories offer a layer of credibility and authenticity. Many businesses advertise long-term, consistently reinforcing their message and building trust with local customers. This demonstrates reliability and commitment, but also builds familiarity. After all, wouldn’t you choose a business you recognise and feel confident in?
